About

Written by The One True b!X, a thirteen-year resident of the Portland of Oregon born forty years ago in upstate New York. He might be twitchy, unreliable-looking.

A devout agnostic and misanthrope who aspires to be an at least passable rationalist, he believes that cynicism results only from first believing people are capable of better and then too often being proved wrong.

He neither bikes nor dances nor dates nor drives nor drugs nor swims. He does, occasionally but with an increasing rarity, drink. Since the death of his father, he no longer smokes. He is a life-long resident of Red Sox Nation who, when not wearing his baseball cap, often can be spotted wearing a porkpie.

If events were pictures and emotions were sounds, his memories would play as silent movies. In all likelihood, his hate is rising like a beautiful bird.

•

He rests on the laurels of the respective successes of Portland Communique and Can’t Stop the Serenity (and the worthwhile failure of the Millennium Cafe), wondering why passionate inspiration — even regarding his own photography — has not struck again.
