Chicks dig me because I rarely wear underwear and
when I do
it's usually something special.

I'm gettin a new picture. The one on here makes me look like fuckin Jaws from bond films.

CHECK MY SHITTY AND RARELY MAINTAINED BLOG OUT: ahwilliamholden.blogspot.com

My prized possession: My czhekoslavakian CHINATOWN poster. I've now got my eye on a way too expensive Japanese poster of THE CONVERSATION which I would have to get insured.

coolest compliment I've ever recieved:"You're the pop cultural James Joyce!"

coolest affectation: I drink gimlets because that's what Phillip Marlowe drinks.

Let me just say that I'm
very proud of testimonials I've written (especially
Jordan's, Claire's and Heather's) and I invite you to
peruse them.

I've always
wanted to play a Harry Lime-esque villian in a movie and
I've always wanted to say to the protagonist after he says
something to 'get my goat' to me - "Thank you Mr. douglas, I'll keep
that in mind when I'm burying your children." Creepy, no? Si, si, es Creepy.
I was a theatre major in college and did intensive work with
Chekhov and it changed the way I look at the world. It sort
of looks the same but with a bluish filter.

Please, No fatties.
