Despite the name, a rather nice fellow just trying to survive in the fascist hellscape of 2025 America.

  1. Thanks to @russburlingame.com!

    My friend Adam has been an evangelist for Josie & the Pussycats for years. I told him about your book when I saw your bio, and he ordered it approximately four seconds later.

    "The book is here! I read the foreword! Already! It's jerkin'!"

    You made him very happy.

  2. So many excellent picks here.

    Not sure if anyone else mentioned it, but I'd like to go with Southland Tales. That movie is some pure high-grade sci-fi camp.

    Donnie Darko is amazing, but Southland Tales is such a pile of wonderful nonsense that I still smile when I think about it.

  3. Sooooooo good.

    Not sure if I could call it my favorite Gilliam movie, but that's just because Brazil exists. Either way, Munchausen is a nearly perfect film.

    It's a battle of creativity against the dull forces of brutality, and it's no wonder that it was too cool for the room at the time.

  4. Thanks to the evolutionary wonder of hardwired inverse kinematics, I can quickly position my hand in 3D space, and will hit my elbow on something at least three times a week.
