Guru Selfie

Shouts. Rants. Negative musings. This site is about such things and more, whenever the urge strikes me to be pithy in such a way.

Abyss. Bottomless pit. The intellectual and moral depths that I call home. Home sweet home.

You are welcome here, friend. If you ever have any thoughts on something you see on my blog, please pound that comment function and let me hear it. I love comments.

Mission Statement

No boring bullshit about my day. In fact, I’ll try not to talk about myself at all.

No pictures of my kids.

No pictures of my pets.  (I like cats. Not dogs. That’s just the way it is. Get over it.)

No recipes with step-by-step photos. I may bend this rule from time to time if hard liquor plays an integral role in the recipe.

I’ll try to post everyday. Some days I may even post more than once. But I may also occasionally miss a day or two. I’ll try to do my best (loser) and then whine about it.

What I post about will be as wildly varied as the thoughts that zing through my brain. It is my ongoing commitment to you, however, to do whatever it takes to always keep the word “poop” as my number one tag. That’s very important and I’m just not willing to compromise my bloggeristic standards in that area.

Who Am I?

Name: Tom B. Taker (no, not my real name.)

Genus: Unknown. (Repeatedly self-described as something other than human.)

Age: This is as close as you get and damn you for asking.

Family Crest: Illustration available here.

Twitter: Click here for my tweets.

Pandora: Click here for my profile.

Flickr: Cick here for my stream.

My Heroes: Marvin the Paranoid Android and the Ty-D-Bol Man.

I have decided to remain completely anonymous. Nobody in my “real life” (except for Mrs. Abyss) even knows this thing exists. That gives me a lot of freedom to say whatever I want to say. That isn’t something I do a lot of in my normal existence. Here I get to let it all hang out!

I won’t reveal who I am or post cutesy pictures of myself, but I will, however, list a few words that describe me:

musician, writer, actor, poet, lover, philosopher, ethicist, scholar, humanist, historian, scientist, sociologist, screenwriter, song writer, journalist, gamer, genius, programmer, mathematician, scuba diver, adventurer, politician, ambassador, soldier, peace keeper, photographer, comedian, statistician, perfectionist, atheist, critical thinker, skeptic, cook, moralist, inventor, anonymologist, feminist

This list to be updated if and when I think of more.
