If its wheeled,can be cooked, burned to disc or put on a record player (including the player itself),chances are I'll have somthing to say on it. I've owned inumerous cars/bikes/scoots from Austria,Russia,Holland,France,
GB,and am encyclopedic historically about the ones most dont know of. I enjoy cooking. I will pull in whatever I've observed or made while working in restaurants in PA and Norway. My food tends to be very spicy,curried- usually include a dark mysterious meat, and be served with heavy multigrain breads or exotic veg, Basmati rice & IPA ale. I love european gamey rural dishes.. I collect toys,antique radios & appliances,adverts vintage-all things vintage and rare abanndoned vehicles needing a good home. I with my better half Emmy are mostly found submersed into our short films - it is our child in a sense and is nursed along with collecting obscure music and film. I play the Dulcimer(a teardrop) albiet not always terribly well. During our bodily stay on this planet-theres too little time to dictate and give all these interests something to do.Except for Em,she can have all my time if it were up to me..

About me:
Born 12/20/69 in Pottstown,PA to a genetic variety pack of
Irish,English,Welsh,French Canadian parents- I grew up in Gardenville,New Hope & Doylestown,PA in an area that was very diversified in its social,economic and belief structure. I married a girl form Norway in 93'and decided to move to her home city Stavanger in 94. I stayed 5 life changing but emotionally draining and rainy years . But I'm a decent cook,pulled my shit together after not finding a job and worked in a German owned Tex-Mex restaurant + cleaned houses while going to school at Stavanger Skole for Utelendinger learning the Norwegian language that I still babble to myself suprisingly here and there. Finding English spoken jobs was never my objective. I later tuned in on the lonely Ex-Pat line by driving a Taxi for GT Service in Randaberg for a good 2 years. I Picked up alot of traveling foreigners who were kind of ghosts placed out of context in another land like myself. The drivers were a veritable pot-luck variety of backgrounds and ethnicity, thus comrades to me came easy and in no short supply.
This experience largely formed my outlook on humanity,race and human nature.
All the while, I watched the unraveling of my marriage in for 6 years - like a cat watching his evening rations being devoured by roaches.In this inlaws climate, I was the "hanging chad" and decided to go home.
Enter Pittsburgh,PA. My brother saves my ass & takes me in at his place in Highland Park near the Zoo. Seemed appropriate by the time.My beloved 1961 Moskvitch 407 was thusly imported to Newark NJ with all my belongings and driven 12hrs to Pittsburgh.I went back to school and graduated Computer Tech - PC/LAN program a year later. Around 12/99, I met a girl at work named Emerald whom upon the first conversation with- did I indeed find where exactly where my Mojo had been hiding.
Now it is 2010. That strong common interests pool I thought immprobable to find, I found with her. I cannot stress the strength of my appriciation for her for the healin ,understanding and companionship.
We today after re-locating to St.Petersburg-FL, enjoy making short films,traveling to ghost towns, exploring exotic foods and collecting the odd car and scooters. Aligned with intuitive skill and love by both parties,we allow our imaginations and interests to dictate where & how we live as equals. Our easy natures and good temperments allow us in return to adjust to new surroundings.The world truly is our oyster.Here I am at peace.
Who I'd like to meet: Roky Erickson,Tom Robbins, Enrico Piaggio, my celtic forbearers and people of a like mind who dont posses a self destruct button.
