    d'Artagnan's Interests
General
This layout was created using
My Wits
Life, Love, Philosophy, History, Politics, Science, Art, Sexuality, Kink, Originality...
But mostly sex and politics
I'm always looking for that bit of information/fact/truth that can make me see things under a new light. I love to challenge my assumptions... I don't let go of them so easily but I love the struggle... and the reward of new wisdom.
Science & Progress Politics & Society Love & Relationships [sigh...] Arts & Leisure Sex ...yum! Delirtium & Folly Me, me, me, me, me!... Religion & Spirituality
Music
My tastes cover the whole rainbow of musical styles... From the raunchiest punk to classic rock to the tackiest pop... from jazz to classical... (and yes, even hip-hop & country) with a particular weakness for the blues... I like what's different and original (though sometimes, you can't improve on the tried and true - especially when you want to shake your booty)
I go through phases... What I'm into tends to change from time to time. A while ago it was a lot of stuff like Cole Porter songs. (Ella Fitzgerald, Dinah Washington, Frank Sinatra...)
More recently, I discovered that while I was sleeping, folks around here (Montreal) just a few years younger than me have finally been making the Québécois music that it seems I knew I always wanted to hear but thought no one was making.
Folks like Mes Aïeux
Listen to a track from this album
...and guys like Loco Locass
Listen to a track from this album
...who are now officially responsible for having written

my favourite protest song

as well as

my favourite pot-head song
...and whose discovery had the same effect on me as when I first heard this album by Rage Against The Machine in my early twenties
Listen to a track from this album
Also... horny little devil that I am, I'm always on the lookout for anything that pushes the sexual enveloppe. (see Cole Porter, above) My favourite find so far in that area is this
Listen to a sample of tracks from this album
I also like Peaches (but she doesn't just push the enveloppe, she shoves it between her... )
Movies
More recently:
The Queen Watch an interview with sexy actress Helen Mirren Mmmm... Helen Mirren, my kind of hottie! Well, not in this movie... but in life and most everything else I've seen her in... Definitely one of the "it" women for me. What a beautiful and sexy woman!
Shortbus Watch an interview with author/director John Cameron Mitchell Rarely has a movie spoken to me like this one...


David Lamble of ClaudesPlace.com interviews John Cameron Mitchell, director of "Shortbus".

Other great ones that come to mind
...so far:
Magnolia Watch an interview with the author/director... ...which I liked much more than Boogie Nights - and I really liked Boogie Nights!
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Watch an interview with author Charlie Kaufman The closest I've ever seen cinema come to expressing the dream state.
Sin City Watch the trailer What can I say, I grew up on Frank Miller comics.
Dogma Watch an interview with Kevin Smith & Chris Rock My favourite by Kevin Smith (Chasing Amy is close second)
The Matrix IMDB entry But just the first one on its own. The other two didn't live up to it.
Une Pure Formalité Watch an unrelated interview with Roman Polanski Who knew Roman Polanski was such a good actor?
Le salaire de la peur Wikipedia The most "edge of your seat" movie ever made.
Memento Watch the trailer
Max Wikidedia
Crash (Not the Cronnenberg one)
Dead Poets Society
Dangerous Liaisons
The Player
...and so many more! Can you tell I'm a movie buff?
Television
South Park, Doctor Who, used to be a big Star Trek fan... Firefly was a great little sci-fi series...too bad Fox wrecked it... other than satisfying my daily news fix, I don't watch much tv anymore.

Konfused Kid
a.k.a. The Kid


This guy is the real s%@&... a 21 year old computer engineering student, science fiction fan and aspiring rock guitarist... He also happens to be an arab living in Baghdad, dealing with the crazy and insane reality of daily life amid the conflict over there ...and reporting on it from a perspective that is sure to challenge your assumptions... no matter where you stand on the issue. Reading him is definitely shock therapy for those who think that the folks over there are somehow different from us.

Check out my admiring post about him here

Pets
All right, so I'm not as desperate as I once was to get rid of her... but if there are any takers out there:

Help find a home for this cute kitty cat


This is my cat. Her name is Ophelia. She's been squatting at my place for over two years now. In other words, I didn't choose her, she just showed up once and decided that she lived there. But she tells her own version of the story on her MySpace page.

She's a really good cat... I've lived with a lot of cats in my life and I can tell you that she's one of the nicest, most affectionate (for a female), docile, cats I've ever known, I really like her. But I have to come to terms with two things.

One: The active life I lead (and want to lead) puts me away from home much too much to provide adequately for her needs. And there are no signs of that changing anytime soon.

Two: Like I said, I've lived with a lot of cats in my life and, truth be told, part of me is a little sick of it... I have even found myself going as far as to consider giving her up to the SPCA or something but I can't come to terms with the idea of her spending her last few days in a cage in some shelter waiting to be gased or lethally injected or whatever it is they do... I have to emphasise that this is not at all a reflection on her, she really is one of the best cats I've known.

So if you would like to adopt her or know someone who would, drop me a line... or better yet, let her know on her own MySpace page; she's really needs new friends.
