when asked, "what do you do?", I say:
I'm a photographer and a fire spinner. I play a
didgeridoo, take a french class. I do tumbling and
trampoline and play in a volleyball league. I host a
monthly art gallery at my house. invariably, people look
a little confused and tell me they meant my occupation for
money. I ask them if that's what they really want to talk
about...


if you know who theodor geisel is, email me. that makes
you cool. email me anyway. I like strangers.


my apartment is named rue moutarde. my monthly art
gallery is named gallery moutarde.

I've never had a cavity. I don't get sick. I'm not
allergic to anything. I've never gotten a brain freeze
(though I've tried). I don't get headaches. but I do
have this dislocatable shoulder...


I always wear mis-matched socks.


I've read fear and loathing in las vegas (I loved it), I
own the movie, but I have never seen the movie.


I play sgt luther robinson in rainbow carnage - a rocky
horror style live production of hedwig and the
angry inch.


I take a lot of pictures.
I chew a lot of gum.
I have over 90 containers of mustard in my fridge.
I travel a lot. particularly to new york and france.


I have a subscription to the weekly world news


I don't capitalize when I type. except for I. I really
don't know why I capitalize I. I don't do it consciously.


I am an expert in stucco, a veteran in love, and an outlaw
in Peru.


I have never been accosted to buy girl scout cookies.


"a person should not believe in an ism. he should believe
in himself. I quote john lennon, 'I don't believe in
beatles. I just believe in me.' a good point there.
after all, he was the walrus. I could be the walrus."


"there is nothing we won't try.
never heard the word impossible.
this time, there's no stopping us."


if I buy you dinner and a movie, you are obligated to put
out. lunch and a movie doesn't count. dinner and a play
doesn't count. it's only dinner and a movie. If you pay
for your own dinner or your own movie, it doesn't count.
I will explicitly explain this rule to you before I buy
you dinner and a movie. if you end up obligating
yourself, it's because you wanted to obligate yourself.
not because I'm someone who shouldn't expect girls to put
out just because I spend money on them.

the crazy diamonds who shine on, anyone who fires all
their guns at once and explodes into space, anybody
pushing green eggs and ham, all those who dance into the
fire.
