About Me |
|
______________________________________________________ "Poet-Scholar-Mighty Warrior-Shameless Exhibitionist" Paraphrased from Lawrence of Arabia ______________________________________________________ "Little. Yellow. Different. Ky." Arbitrarily made up by The Advertising Slogan Generator ... Really! ______________________________________________________ My name is pronounced "Key": meaning unusual. Leon claims, "Ky has an aura around him." I really dig Sacha's characterization of me as a "super swell bon vivante." (Thanks, love.) One night, Lisa Marie said I was an enigma.I recall Coby saying the same thing after sunrise one morning. Hmmm... ______________________________________________________ Life is art. Life is beautiful. Life is sweet. Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get. Expect the unexpected. Moderation is for lemmings (but who's to judge if they're happy). Procrastination has its privileges (and its price). Plot is for the proletariat. Video is the last temptation of Christ. (I may be succumbing, but I will always have the accomplishment of taking Kara to a press screening of "Shaolin Soccer," her first celluloid viewing in five years.) ______________________________________________________ To some degree, all of the Interests are arbitrary. Ca va. ______________________________________________________ Die Luft der Freiheit weht. (Let the winds of freedom blow.) |
