Your Notes
Edit your notesI am wry, musical, and food-loving.
My Self-Summary
I love finding new music, and am more likely to be browsing
SecondSpin or AllMusic than Facebook at work. I cook, especially
big pots of things that take all Saturday and make my house smell
awesome all weekend. I love a good, dark beer. Anything lighter than apple juice is
a waste of hops. I spend a lot of my spare time playing taiko, which is a form of
Japanese drumming, and my house is full of little drums, percussion
toys, etc. I am glad Judd Apatow and his clones have taken over the
comedy scene, but really, Waiting for Guffman is the deep end of
the comedy pool, and everybody else is just playing with water
wings.
What I’m doing with my life
Working at a start-up for thousands of shares of worthless stock
(or tiny little lottery tickets, if you prefer). Playing the
drums in my spare
time, and occasionally touring with my group. I've seen a lot of
tiny towns in weird places that I never would have visited if it
weren't for music.
I’m really good at
I work really hard at my music, but it'll be a lifetime before I
claim it is something I'm good at. I am better than most at
cooking, but I won't be appearing on Top Chef any time soon. Maybe
Hell's Kitchen. Hmm. How about: I am good at complaining about plot
holes in crappy summer blockbuster movies, I play a mean game of
Minesweeper at work, and I make fish tacos good enough to open a
stand in San Diego.
The first things people usually notice about me
Probably my sideburns. If you want people to easily remember you,
my recommendation is to grow sideburns.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Literature -- If I could steal somebody's written voice
Little-Mermaid-style, it would be Salman Rushdie. I especially like
his less ambitious stuff like Haroun and the Sea
of Stories. Vonnegut is cool too. If he came back
as a zombie, I would have to hesitate and steel myself before
shooting him in the head. Oh, and Donald Barthelme's stories
always make me smile.
Film -- The Coen Brothers have many spots in my pantheon, but Tom Tykwer made the movie that sits in my Zeus-throne: The Princess and the Warrior.
Music -- I'm going to censor myself, because I could talk for hours about music. You'll have to trust me that this is an iceberg-tip: Lonesome Crowded West. Fela Kuti. Rahsaan Roland Kirk.
Food -- I like meat slow-cooked until it is falling off the bone, green leafy vegetables cooked in bacon fat, and rich broth. Basically, delicious things my grandma would make.

The six things I could never do without
On a typical Friday night I am
Probably at taiko practice. Or having a beer with friends.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
If I could be any celebrity, it would be Gary Oldman. Or Michel Gondry.
