About me: DSW MA Hons... That's right, I got myself a Degree. I live in South Korea and teach rude and violent children how to be rude and violent in the English language, all the while just glad I'm no longer in the heart of swineland, Dundee. Nevertheless, as great as Korea is and as drunkenly depraved as Dundee can be, I'm always plotting my way back to California, the only place in this world to have claimed my heart.
I also co-founded and edit a sexy little magazine called Beatdom. I write a great number of things, including short stories (Godless: Fragments of Contemporary Society (the first Fragmentist text)) and non-fiction (Who Is Rodney Munch?)but this sweet mag takes up most of my time: and
A link to the Beat Generation social network, for fans of Kerouac, Ginsberg, Burroughs and all the Beat Generation writers and artists that made the era great.

Who I'd like to meet: Anyone worth meeting is already dead, and I don't believe in the afterlife, so I'm content with meeting the minds of great people through their works... These unmeetables include Doc Hunter S Thomson, Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, Gregory Corso, William S Burroughs, Lord Byron, Ezra Pound, F. Scot Fitzgerald, William Blake...
Oh, and Oz Clarke and James May (they're both very much alive).

I was given faulty info by his schysty technology.... this is why I use smoke signals half the time and wounded elk calls the other half...it's better for the throat. yeah...so fuck it..happy birthday anyway.

Be safe, david...they know where this is going... -Mahalo!

Then the jungel is awash with the screams of the soon to be beheaded... WWWWWWWOOOOOOOO.... where the hell did that fucker come from? nevermind..thats for another time. Happy day of your birth, david...you strange beast...crazy little fucker. You have a talent that Liddy would have had you castated for...

You must help me come up with a blog idea inflammatory enough to attract an admirer like that guy you have over on blogger. I'm really starting to regret activating email notification when people comment after me, except that his ignorance really is funny. Poor guy has no sense of humor.
I need someone like that to be my personal entertainment.

LOL! The General ain't so bad...He's just an american male hardass, pretending to be a aging chinese kungfu master. Iam sorta used to the type, but your dead on with Monkey's & Irwin's good traits.
I know! Apart from the General, Irwin & Monkey, I think Iam now friends with everyone who actually posts on the group! I think I'll go add them in honor of their abilty to type.
Thanks for the add! I've always enjoyed your posts on the group, though sometimes I can't comment cause I haven't read that HST book yet...your post on "Hey Rube" is the reason why it'll be the next book on my reading list. :)
