About Me:
born and bred native Texan, but moving to SoCal in '96
showed me the better way to live, which was in a place that
a) doesn't stay over 100 degrees for 2 months with 70%
humidity and b) isn't so obviously run by Christian
Coalition.
Started DJ work in '97, started taking photographs for my
own amusement long before that. Been off and on with a lot
of my passions, working on rectifying that situation. Came
to HMC in '96 to become a physicist, discovered that a life
in education and research was not exactly what i had in
mind.
Dropped out to join the dot-com boom, made a little money,
made a lot of interesting friends. Dragged myself out to
Burning Man and haven't looked back.

Who I Want to Meet:
People deeply engaged in their passions, people who love

been like a brother to me, which is
strange, since we're so obviously not
related. "Our" cowardly parents never
had the guts to tell him he was adopted,
but I guess the fact that he's the only
black member of the family eventually
tipped him off. In rebellion, he
decided to grow creative facial hair, so
that now he reminds me a lot of Vigo the
Carpathian from Ghostbusters II,
especially when he says things like, "On
a mountain of skulls, in a castle of
pain, I sat on a throne of blood!"
That's Karl all right. Over the years,
he's taught us all some valuable
lessons, for example, that the world
record for deepest dive by a turtle, set
in May 1987 by a leatherback turtle
(dermochelys coriacea), which reached a
depth of 1,200 meters (3,973 feet) off
the Virgin Islands in the West Indies,
is, like all records, made to be broken.
Who knows what the future holds for
such a dynamic individual?
you can get past the incident involving
the armadillo and the poking stick or
the baby oil-pickup truck- preacher's
house- "Macho Man" incident.
Karl can club like a madman, code like
a fiend, and make any night better, all
while acting the perfect gentleman. I
cannot say enough good things about
Karl. Karl rocks.
be there to fuck you up the ass when
you need it most.
well. He's one of those people I've
always felt comfortable with, even when
we haven't talked in more than a year.
I can see Karl, and suddenly everything
picks up just where we left off. He's
the sort of person you can trust. He's
also marvellously cuddly.
