    I'm a member of a stealth group of would-be pickup artists who have as their singular obsession in life approaching strange women in shopping malls, parking lots, and NYC Misdemeanor Court with the sole object of getting their phone number in a no more than 10 minute conversation. Other than that my hobbies include the study of metric asymmetry in Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring. My transcriptions of the meters called for in the episode known as "The Game of Abduction", for example, show that the following different meters are called for there: 3+5+5+3+4+5+6+5+2+6+6+6+6+2+6+4+6+6+6+4+2. In addition to these pusuits I am becomingly increasingly fascinated with a brand item of furniture called the Rian Cantilever Stool, made by Semigood Design. That's about something to do with the odd curvature of my spine and back. And oh yeah, the poem Night Song Of The Wandering Asian Shepherd by Giacomo Leopardi. (Note - if you want to discuss 20th Century Italian Poetry w. me I'm most interested in Quasimodio and Ungaretti. Montale not so much.)

  • Music

    Celine Dion; Taylor Dayne; a pop singer from the 80s named Karyn White; England Dan and John Ford Coley; Captain and Tenille; Coolio, specifically Crotch Grabber; Maurice Joshua's Five Rules For Killer Remixes; Hank Jones Solo Piano Live @ Maybeck Recital Hall; Ozark Mountain Daredevils; Anthology of 90s Rap: All The Ho's In The House Bend Over; etc.

  • Movies

    I'm gonna tell you this one time. Watch the way Richard Brooks used striaght ahead acoustic jazz in Elmer Gantry, In Cold Blood, and Looking For Mr. Goodbar; the way Taylor Hackford uses shots of the shifting clouds in the sky in Dolores Claiborne, The Devil's Advocate, and Ray (was that the name of the Ray Charles bio, Ray?); and the way Stanley Kubrick uses track shots in Paths of Glory, The Shining, and Full Metal Jacket (they are virtually interchangeable between the three films). That will indoctrinate you in identifying the identity of a given director. Other than that, watch the scene in Arthur Penn's film Four Friends where the hippies on the beach throw a beach ball with the image of JFK and Jackie O on it if you want to feel the power that film has to be able to crack your heart in half.

  • Television

    I like reruns, shit like Dark Shadows and I Love Lucy, and You Tube clips of Fox News babes crossing their legs.

  • Books

    I have not read a book in many years but as I recall the last several I attempted were The Construction of Social Reality by John Searle; The Mammoth Book of International Erotica, ed. by Maxim Jakubowski; Structuralist Poetics by Jonathan Culler; Liberalism Is a Mental Disorder by Michael Savage; Teach Yourself Guitar by Nick Freeth; and The Hidden Social Abuse: Decoding Prostitution in the Fiction of Dickens by Babs Edley.

  • Heroes

    Unknown. Babs Edley.

About me:

Although I find myself to be more and more interested in short blogging exclusively ("De gustibus non est disputandum") I've certainly gone batshit insane with the long stuff too, racking my fool brain about the following subjects which, I have become increasingly aware, absolutely no one anywhere gives a hoot about:

Highbrow 20th Century Fiction: The Bohemian Aesthetic

Hollywood Adaptations of Middlebrow Novels: Page & Screen

The Cutting Edge Novelists of Today: Finite Information

Some Friends: Oceans of Silence

Some More Friends: Amethyst Secrets

My ex father-in-law has a demolition company - he destroys things for a living. In his late sexties, he reminds you of Jack LaLanne. He has babes on his arm who are one third his age! I often bump into him in the gym; the ladies often gape open mouthed at him as he does arm curls at a pace that would wear out younger men. The girls come and offer him towels, bottles of water, fresh fruit, clean workout gloves, protein shakes, and make small talk with him while he does leg presses. Sometimes the vain old bastard jogs on the treadmill without a shirt, and when the club personnel confront him about it, saying its against the rules, he vaingloriously argues with them for a few minutes to draw even more attention to himself.

"You really weren't right for my daughter," he told me once, running beside me on a treadmill, gliding effortlessly like a goddam antelope while I sweated and huffed and puffed like a warthog.

"What do you mean?" I demanded to know.

"You don't understand the elementary rules of talking to a woman. Your language, for example, is always chock full of turnoff words."

"Turnoff words?"

"Yeah - urine, foreclosure, colonoscopy, sewage, words like that. You should be decorating your speech with words like attraction, massage, magnetism, heat, workout, etc. I once heard you tell my daughter "Rats have sex twenty times a day" - no wonder she couldn't wait to get away from you!!"

Who I'd like to meet:

You, you phreak!!
