I intended to share my deepest and innermost thoughts. However, I recently realized that I am utterly incapable of sharing myself truly with another human being.
Instead, I will do so through music, the occasional photograph, random blurb and cinema.

There is only one thing that I don’t understand about this picture. And that’s everything about it.
Friends of P by The Rentals off the album Return of the Rentals is one of my favorite songs. The lyrics are cheesy with cheesy backup lyrics and a cheesy synthesizer. What isn’t cheesy though, is the wicked fuzzy bass and guitar and the incredibly simple yet effective beat that drives the song.
I’m gonna break down at fifty
And I’m not quite a stallion
I’m a good guy for a gal
And I’m mentally slipping

Danny Gatton, Master of the Telecaster, inventor of “Hillbilly Rock” was unarguably one of the greatest guitarists who ever lived was severely underrated. His style was, unique, lightning quick and above all, tasty. His sudden suicide in 1994, I feel, has left a void in the world of music that has yet to be filled. He truly was one of the most inventive guitar players who has ever lived.
I discovered the secret as to why Lays potato chips taste better than any other brand of potato chips: They use just the right amount of too much salt.

Let me start off by saying that I do not like Lady GaGa! In fact, after seeing the video for this song, I am convinced that she is the Devil! The music sounds like a bad trip. The subject matter is depraved! But, man is this song great!

Feel the Pain by Dinosaur Jr. off of their album Without a Sound is one of my favorite songs. The song, to me, is a sonic assault of pure brilliance. J. Mascis is brilliant!
I feel the pain of everyone then I feel nothing

Anonymous asked: What type of books (or literature) do you prefer to read?
I prefer mostly nonfiction. I have an inordinately strong affinity for books on economics and business. I also love books about history, thermodynamics, quantum physics and government sponsored skullduggery.
The last ten books I have read are:
1.Atlas Shrugged (Ayn Rand) I am struggling mightily with this one. It’s almost unreadable.
2.The Shock Doctrine (Naomi Klein)
3.Catastrophe (David Keys) Read twice
4.The Man Who Tried To Buy The World (Jo Johnson and Martine Orange)
5.Conspiracy of Fools(Kurt Eichenwald)
6.What Goes Up (Eric J. Weiner)
7.Liar’s Poker (Michael Lewis) Read 5 times
8.Freakonomics (Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner) Read 5 Times
9.Entropy (Jeremy Rifkin) Lost count of how many times I have read it.
10.Confessions of an Economic Hitman (John Perkins) Read 3 Times
I am very bored right now. I am soliciting for questions and or inquiries about anything.
Blasphemy, I know. But, I am not a huge Bob Marley fan. I like only a handful of his songs. This is one of them.
I’ll push the wood (stir it, stir it, stir it together),
then I blaze ya fire;
Then I’ll satisfy your heart’s desire. (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Said, I stir it every (stir it, stir it, stir it together),
every minute:
All you got to do, baby, (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Is keep it in, eh!

I spent the majority of my day with my girlfriend’s parents. Her family is the complete antithesis of mine. They are genuinely loving, gregarious and generous people. I am very fortunate to know such loving people.
