About Me:
I was raised in a small town in rural Appalachia, but I speak like an East Coaster (Okay, maybe more like a Midwesterner these days). I'm an atheist who reads the Bible and John Calvin. When I was in college I helped start a "Heavy Metal Club." And I had a Mohawk. Now I wear sweater vests. I like to cook and I like to eat. And I like to drink. I'm married to Molly Galvin, and very happy with that. Our wedding invitation asked people to enjoy our "march toward bourgeois respectability." I generally wear my hair in a style inspired by Jack Kennedy. My favorite international footballer is Carlos Bocanegra. I frequently spell "jail" as "gaol" after the British fashion.

him Christian, or, alternately, "The
Young Sean Farrell" (ouch), but I knew
him only as "Kri's Boyfriend." Then one
day while I was sitting on The Stoop, I
happened to watch a mohawked Skoots
knock pyscho Christian Stumpfig off of
the campus scooter and proceed to spit
on him, kick him in the gut, and
scream "My Scooter!" From that day
forward he was known as Skooter,
which is cool because, uh, it fits with his
last name. But I gotta tell ya, writing this
down today it seems like the most
wondrous thing I have ever seen....
Anyway. We also gave Skooter a
scooter for his birthday, which he
proceeded to ride up and down Pennell
while screaming obscenities. And he got
a pink gorilla to visit him, too. AND he
woke up with a naked chick that wasn't
there when he went to bed. Wow...
that's a helluva birthday! By the by, what
name does Molly call out in the throes
of passion, "Skooter" or "Christian?"
And
and I'm so glad I married him. He is
also a master drink inventor. Among
his best are the "Kwan" and the "White
Hot Russian." If you're ever in the
neighborhood, put in a request and he'll
treat you right.
Not only was he willing to put himself
on the line for the sake of art (a
number of video projects for myself
and others) but he also sang a really
cool song called Skooter that I find
myself humming still to this day. He
also would get himself into sticky
situations in collge (only once in a
while) but because he was such a
charming young man he was never
actually "in trouble". How could
anyone be mad at him? We also
played the best game once at the
Tavern called "Can you see me
now?" which was fun but we had to
stop because it was too dorky even
for us. I recently had cocktails with
him in NYC and can safely and
without any hesitation say Skooter is
still a great great friend who I will
always want to hang out with. Plus
he's really smart and not smug about
it. He's just really smart.
about the time you got married to your
first wife, Earl who kept on hitting
you so i flew down from Atlanta and
helped you off Earl. Remember how the
police got all involved and then when
the heat died down, we got a road side
stand and sold strawberry jam and
Tennesse hams? Wow!
times?! Like that time you overheard
your brother talking about that body
he found in the woods and we thought
we would be in the Cowan Times if we
found it, and then we walked through
the woods and then found it after we
bonded, then your brother and his gang
showed up, but we claimed the body but
left an anonymous tip. Dude! That
was the bestest! Skooter, you're the
bestest!
Sending lots of fuzzy pink gorilla love
to you and Molls. xoxoxo
parts when he's done with them.
