You don't have to ask to friend me. Just say hello.
"I am not eccentric. It's just that I am more alive than most people. I am an unpopular electric eel set in a pond of goldfish." - Dame Edith Sitwell
I am engaged to Miss froglady83, and may even marry her someday if she's unlucky.
I post an MP3 for your entertainment and education every Monday.
I seem often to contradict myself or make no sense. This is entirely due to the fact that I am a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma that's smothered is yummy nougat and wrapped in foil, and I will make your head hurt. So just go with it.
I'm a poet and a wannabe cartoonist. Someday I hope to be a philosopher too so I can get that nice trifecta of starvation.

"You are not required to complete the task, but neither are you free from it, nor can you abandon it." - R. Tarfon
"You're head's like mine, like all our heads; big enough to contain every god and devil there ever was. Big enough to hold the weight of oceans and the tuning stars. Whole universes fit in there! But what do we choose to keep in this miraculous cabinet? Little broken things, sad trinkets that we play with over and over. The world turns our key and we play the same little tune again and again and we think that tune's all we are." - Grant Morrison, The Invisibles: Say You Want A Revolution |
