I am in many ways a philosopher. And of course by that I mean I'm poor and I never get laid. But beyond that, I am often observing life, existence and life and existence on Planet Earth.
While most people are enjoying conversations and/or flirting at the bar or at a party, I am in a dark corner trying to piece together why they are so happy and I am so not. Often, it is because they are so drunk and I am so not. But it goes beyond that. The following are little philosophical, political and absurd essays and columns I've written regarding my many theories on the Why and the How. Other times, I actually undertake some groovy misadventures, and those are included in this section as well.
The first masterpiece of shit is about a recent "trip" I took wherein I compared the motor of my mind to that of my ancestors. It is a psychedelic psychological examination of man and the world he has built out of the world from which he was born. It is called...
Now Here's This (Or: Don't Forget Not To Puke)
The second is a theory I came up with back in college, uniting mathematical theory and human nature. It's a fun little screed I call...
The Unified Theory of Human Prime Numbers
The third is a true story about the bona-fide evils of alcohol. And the fun. I like to tell this story at parties. Conversely, people don't like me to tell this story at parties. Either way, it is called...
The Story of My Life (Sort Of)
The fourth is a true story about the time I got higher than a butterfly in the sky. There's not much else to say about it other than if you were an alien and you read my Alcohol story and then this one, and then I told you that one of those drugs was illegal and had you guess... Anyway, it's called...
Pot Damn! (Or: "Colt", Or: "The Most Stoned You Can Get")
The fifth is hard to place exactly, as it contains a few stories, but I believe it is ultimately a true confession by me-the-writer. I wrote it a number of years ago and unearthed it while putting together this site. I was surprised at how well it stood up. It was commissioned by my older brother when I was in college as a way of getting me off my lazy ass to do more writing. I thank him for it now. It is called...
American Poetry (Or: One Writer's Confession)
And because this site just isn't self-indulgent enough, I've also compiled a list of writers, artists and people whom I regard as my heroes and influences. It can be found here...
