General
Heat, sparks, and open flame. Puncture and incineration. The beach at night, maps, running, Tokyo, Mexico, foam core, the Aztecs, the Vikings, exacto blades, mangoes, a heavenly way to die, my temporal lobe, your hypnagogic myoclonus, super-colliding super colliders, spring break ninjas, Ultimate Cage Match: Joan of Arc vs. Godzilla, I Saw It On The Menu, vodka and tonic, never knows best, Los Angeles Liberation Front, sparking the revolution, fugue states triggered by color combinations, manifestly comparing apples and oranges, comics, zombies, and grace. Writing things, photo things, making things.
