Bad 'B' Horror flicks, Whiskey, writing, Scotch, slayin dragons, Bourbon, cars that have no idea what seat belts or catalytic converters are, Gin, dames with an over-developed appreciation for 50's-60's music, Tequila, savin' kittens from treetops, Did I mention drinkin'? Philosophy, Psychology, (both newer passions, comes from havin' a brilliant doctor fer a roommate) Oh, and occasionally, dodgin' bullets.
Music
Found some truth in Lynard Skynard... hard to believe, sure, but listen to the words of "simple man," and tell me I'm wrong...
Mama told me when I was young
Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say.
And if you do this
It will help you some sunny day.
Take your time... dont live too fast,
Troubles will come and they will pass.
Go find a woman and youll find love,
And dont forget son,
There is someone up above.
(chorus)
And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and understand.
Be a simple kind of man.
Wont you do this for me son,
If you can?
Forget your lust for the rich mans gold
All that you need is in your soul,
And you can do this if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.
(chorus)
Boy, dont you worry... youll find yourself.
Follow you heart and nothing else.
And you can do this if you try.
All I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.
(chorus)
ROCK-A-BILLY. All's good. Original Sun Records stuff to post-modern Rev. Horton Heat... If it's about fast cars, faster women, drinkin', or brawlin', I'm all over it... KINGS OF NUTHIN'! Kick ass band outta Boston... the damn Numa Numa song... hey! I reminds me of my grandma... she used to get hammered and speak in dutch...
Movies
The list is LONG... Big Trouble in Little China, El Diablo, Boondock Saints, Six String Samurai, Dudes, Army of Darkness, Dueces Wild, Matrix, Mavrick, Space Truckers, Clerks, Dodgeball, SERENITY! And a moment, if I might... If I can persuade anyone of anything, it's to watch Serenity. There has not been a single original script in hollywood for far too long, to finally have one come out, well, you owe it to yerself to see it.
Really.
I mean it.
Quit readin' this and go!
Television
Well, TV's become a different priority in my life since my dang-blasted roommate got Dish Network and a DVR. See, it used to be If I had plans, and a given show was on, I'd simply consign myself to the fate of missing said program. No big deal. But no... now we can record anything, and the worst part about it is once you record it, you feel obligated to watch it!
Oh, the horror!
SO... yeah, with that, and the 50,000 channels, It's hard not to flip on the TV... Lost, the West Wing, Firefly, those are the stock standby's... Firefly I don't feel so bad about, it's brilliant, and the West Wing is amazing, until you realize that our government can never run as elloquintly, as WW pays their staff writers more! But friggin' Lost?! How did I git wrapped up in that?!
Books
Heinlien. Big Sci-fi geek, and Heinlien is my poison of choice. Other than that, I read everything I possibly can, with the exception of Daniel Steele.
Heroes
Elvis (incarnation of GOD!), Jim Bowie ('cause design wise, ya can't improve much on "REALLY BIG FUCKIN' KNIFE!), 1SG B.T. Wiley (my old 1st Sergeant), Dr. M. Williams (track coach back in the day), MY POP! ('cause I love the bastard!)

About me: Well, according to the CIA, I'm an Innovative Pioneer... really... I'd love to show you proof, but, well, I can't. Anyway, back to the profile at large!
Good-lookin', tall-drink-o-water, with a good quart of 10-40 weight in my hair. OK, ego aside, I look like your average greaser. Got some tattoos, cards to be specific, that represent my closest friends and family... there's a blog about 'em. Fun huh? I like drinkin' and writin', and have been told I'm fairly alright at both... but by all means, take a gander at some of the drivel I've spouted... lemme know what ya think. Found the almighty... wasn't exactly lookin' fer him, but, like most of the events in my life, that which I prepare for, never occurs... but the unforseen... WHAM! Like a freight train baby!
::sigh::
Life keeps gettin' weirder by the day... but with my track record, that's to be expected... what the hell, at least it keeps it interesting.
If all that was too much to read fer ya, here's the paraphrased version...
Drinks like a fish, smokes like a chimney, curses like a sailor, and eats buffalo wings like the natural predator of the flying buffalo.
From the Hebrew name ???????? (Mika'el) which meant "who is like God?". This is the name of one of the seven archangels in Hebrew tradition and the only one identified as an archangel in the Bible. In the Book of Revelation in the New Testament he is portrayed as the leader of heaven's armies, and thus is considered the patron saint of soldiers. This was also the name of nine Byzantine emperors and a czar of Russia. Other more modern bearers of this name include the 19th-century chemist/physicist Michael Faraday and basketball player Michael Jordan.
Who I'd like to meet: People worth talkin' with, I might be able to squeeze ya in... Only one stipulation... if we're gonna shoot E-mails back and forth at each other, fer god sakes, unless yer boss is lookin', don't respond with one word answers... don'tcha hate that?
Right, tirade over, I'm better now.
I'm not bitter, I'm just drawn that way ::smirk::
Anyway, at this point in my life, one can never have too many friends... bail's expensive.
Oh, and a love for Johnny Bravo is probably necessary...
"Hey, wanna watch me comb my hair really fast?" "Hey baby, I can tell we both love the same things, me!" "Oh Momma, I'm so sweet that I've got a mouth full of cavities." "Well baby, what's it like looking at the man of your dreams?" "Can you guess how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Bravopop or Johnnypop .. whatever you prefer?" "Hey baby, if this shoe fits then I must be your cinderfella!" "Man, it must be great being you watching me!" "You smell kinda pretty, wanna smell me?" "If loving me is wrong,
you don't wanna be right!"
YOU JUST GOT MARRIED AND I WAS THERE !!!!!! seriously you and rese looked amazing. Fabulous. utterly perfect. have fun in new orleans. and don't forget that i love you both so very very much. and always remember.... predictions are always best made in boxers and a wife beater....
I just read the blog and I'm soooo happy for the Mr. and future Mrs. Rombouts!!! YEY!!! She must be the Epitome of Wonderful - the only lady lucky enough to snag such a great person to share their life with; I mean, this is HUGE, its like George Clooney getting married for cripes sakes!! All I can say is PLEASE, for both of your sanities, run off and do it cheap and fun! Include friends and family if you must...I just wish me and my hubby did so, the other way is such a hassle and headache! Spend any cash you can on a really GREAT honeymoon instead! Thats where all the fun's at! We somehow got schtumped and didn't even HAVE a honeymoon! Hows that fer gettin'; screwed! Hahaha...Sorry, I'm blabbing now, but seriously, life couldn't be any happier for everyone right now! Love is filling the room faster than a Taco Bell-y fart ;) By the way, speaking of love, did you see my little boy? He's soooo cute! I keep priding myself over him while he kicks my spleen into a nice little pretzel, awww! I'm just really excited about my upcoming baby shower in LA!! YEY! I can finally shop for really cute baby stuff! There's no cute shops in my town...
Congrats, and kan houden van glanzen op u allebei! (that's "may love shine on you both!" in Dutch!) ;)
