About me: I don't believe in life schedules, paradigms, or following anyone else's path. To find the Grail one must enter the darkest part of the woods. But be careful: that's where the child molesters hide. Stupid child molesters.

Who I'd like to meet: Other artists, interesting folks, stimulating minds, that kinda thang... Oh and Tom Waits, but that's just wishful thinking.
Hey, John. :-) To answer your quote question... I think we tend to either worship or damn what we fear. And, many, many people fear whatever they don't understand. A lot of people live their lives in the realm of pigeonholes, no care for the fact that pigeonholing is the biggest lie of all. My 2 cents.
