poisoned dwarf

My family is top-priority for me. Without them I'd be nothing. I have a beautiful, awesome wife named Amy, who heroically puts up with my shit (most of the time--ha ha), and two great sons, Joe (9 yrs) who is in the fourth grade now, and Cole (5 months) who is just learning to laugh (and do bench presses--he's a strong boy). Some of my other interests include music, reading, writing, poker, and watching movies (horror movies are my favorite, I collect them). I love surrealism. Anything odd and unusual interests me. I love good wine and beer. No, I'm not talking about fuckin Budweiser or Franzia. As one of my favorite beers, Arrogant Bastard, puts it on their label: "This is an aggressive beer. You probably won't like it. We would suggest that you stick to safer and more familiar territory--maybe something with a multi-million dollar ad campaign aimed at convincing you it's made in a little brewery, or one that implies their tasteless fizzy yellow beer will give you more sex appeal. Perhaps you think multi-million dollar ad campaigns make a beer taste better. Perhaps you're mouthing your words as you read this." Belgian beers and American microbrews are my faves. I love a lot of English beers (pretty much just their porters and stouts), too. As for wine, I like pretty much anything that tastes good and isn't plonk. At the moment, my favorite red is Syrah/Shiraz and my favorite white is Sauvignon Blanc.
