About me: MAKES LIFE WORTH LIVING: My sweet and sexy partner Josh, playing with our Boxer Buddha and MinPin Sandwiches, indie electronic rock music (like Ladytron, Cut/Copy, Crystal Castles, and The Presets), poking fun at silly things including yourself, water parks and amusement parks, sunny summer days, making new friends from around the globe, barbecues, Up Your Alley and Folsom Street Fair, vegemite on toast, a strong cup of coffee in the morning, independent films that make you think and cry, laughing at British comedies, French fashion on the runway, sharing the holidays with friends, pissing off the religious right, Trannyshack!, going on vacation, nightlife, road trips, creative and kick-ass video games, mentoring a young person, a warm Croque Monsieur from a Parisian cafe, a trip to the art museum on a rainy day, Powerhouse, clever music videos, practicing French with a native speaker, a new pair of sneakers, really bad cross-dressers, and a job well done.
MAKES LIFE INFURIATING: Republicans, ignorance, arrogance, substance abuse, stepping in dog poop, miscommunication, mistaking steroid use for hard work at the gym, superficiality, cutting in line, a broken computer, a stained shirt, accepting violence but not accepting sexuality and nudity, abuse of power, not accepting constructive criticism, inability to self-reflect, being mean, blaming everyone else for your problems, doing a poor job.

Who I'd like to meet: Freaks like me. Music geeks. Radical homosexuals. Liberal intellectuals. Pop culture fanatics. People with good taste. People who act in poor taste but know better. People who make me laugh. People who challenge, stimulate, and inspire me. Creative types. Musicians. Jake Gyllenhaal! Oh, and I'd like to have a dinner party with all of my "Heroes."
‘Oozing sensuality and provocative energy, Risqué emerge from the erotic underworld with their Pedro Almodovar inspired debut album, Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down, on the revered Some Bizarre label - 6th July 09’

I'm having a panic attack too. My panic attack is having a panic attack. It's called a panic-anic attack.
Well, I guess all I can say is, Benjamin Button was based on me, I'm seventy years old. I'm gonna die an old lady baby. So, And I invented air so everytime you breathe you owe me ten cents. And I married Oprah's best friend Gale, and Stedman, and Doctor Oz, and our wedding was at Harpo studios. And I used to be a puppet, I used to be on Fraggle Rock. And my two best friends are a Tomato and Lisa Minelli.

"At last!" U exclaim, "Marck's new New Year poem is up, out & on!"
Actually, I considered following this year's one-line slogan, '2008: Great!', with a stylistic sequel: '2009: Fine!', but then decided 2 B a tad less uber-minimalist 4 next year and composed the following instead... N-joy! }=))>
