Biting the heads off sheep. Playing Scrabble in phonetic Esperanto. Looking at boobies. Huffing Aussie Sprunch Spray. Drinking LOTS of Coffee. Perpetuating the myth that I am indeed the reincarnation of Bruce Lee. Not the actual martial arts star but a railroad worker from Colorado who died in 1847 with the same name. Bruce Tiberius Lee was eaten by the Donner Party as the first Chinese Take Out. I'll never forget....
I love Garlic Chicken and Egg Rolls though...
Music
Peeping Tom, Elvis Costello, Mike Patton, Falco!, Kool Keith, Iron Maiden, AC/DC, Dr. Octagon, Styx back in the day, and a Shout out to my Homies, The Gun and Doll Show.
Movies
Dawn of the dead, Casablanca, Magnolia, Night of the living dead, The double macguffen, Bring it on, What get's me hot, Clerks, Day of the dead, Evil dead films, Grease, Pennieless, Brawlin' Broads, Repo Man, Meshes of the afternoon, Superman 1 and 2.
Television
I was there in front of the Television in 1981 to see the launch of MTV. I also watched it become crap in 1987. I love music videos as art. Too bad no one plays them anymore. I vehemently eschew "Must See TV". I cannot stand the poor writing and telegraphed humor of most sitcoms. Drama fares better in my opinion such as in the case of 24. Mostly I watch DVDs of shows to escape the commercials.
Books
A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson. Todas Hacemas Caca by ???. Shogun by James Clavell. The Stand By Steven King. The Collected Works of Shakespeare. My Pet Goat. The Fifties by David Halberstam. 40 Yards To The Outhouse By I.P. Freely. Hello God It's Me, Solis
Heroes
I admire Watson and Crick for chasing down the structure of DNA. J. Robert Oppenheimer for speaking out against the atomic bomb that he helped create. Mike Patton for pioneering new frontiers in music. Ernest Hemmingway for attempting to write what was beyond attainment. Shakespeare for recording the drama of the human condition. Socrates for running around Athens flat broke yet rich beyond measure. And last but not least, my father.

Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my new erotic horror novel THE 13TH is now in stores everywhere! I hope you'll check out this debauched and demonic horror ride!
There's even a website devoted just to the book, with an interactive map of the places and characters at www.the13th-horror.com.
Edward Lee called THE 13TH "A double-barreled shotgun blast of macabre entertainment -- an expert amalgamation of grotesquerie, eroticism, mystery, and pitch-black occult horror that no fan of the genre can miss."
And Gary A. Braunbeck said, "John Everson's The 13th is the first out-and-out horror novel in a long while to actually scare the **** out of me while reading it. It's stylish, extremely well-written, filled with richly-drawn characterizations, and boasts a labyrinthine plot worthy of Umberto Eco. Trust me -- this one will fry your nerves and break your heart."
We are glad to announce the launch of the new Otaku Magazine issue, which has the theme “THE END OF THE WORLD” and encompasses various themes, from Godzilla and Gundam, to otaku survival methods. (more info: otakumag.com)
