All About Dave X. Pooh

Back by unpopular demand!


Well, you've indicated to my zippy little server that you have some interest in knowing about me, so I suppose that since I created the link that got you here, the burden of explaining myself to you can only fall on my shoulders. So bear with me, and I'll try to make it as painless as possible for you to learn all about the Elusive DavePooh.

To begin with, I am currently an 18-year-old freshman majoring in journalism at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. We affectionately know it as SIU-C or Riot Central. Make of it what you will, but it's a good place, and I like it here. Anyway... in my free time (which I have little of, it seems) I usually end up studying Algebra (I detest math) or actually doing something fun.
In most cases, that ends up with me playing guitar outside on the picnic table near my dorm, or getting on the net to check my e-mail since I'm a bit compulsive about it. I also enjoy collecting CD's, painting my face for no reason at all, dressing up like fellow co-workers, writing poems and stories, kicking someone's ass at Monopoly and going outside to hike somewhere. Around here, that usually ends up being the hour-long hike to Wal-Mart... oh well.

A big part of me is my music. By "my" music, I mean the stuff I make up myself and the music I collect. I guess when you get attached to some music, it feels like yours. My heroes are Jimi Hendrix, Dick Dale (surf rock god) and Jello Biafra (from the Dead Kennedys). I want to be the first Midwesterner to play Psychedelic Surf Punk, so look for it in a few years, okay? If I ever have an album, the band will be called Electric Kitten Vomit or EKV for short.

I'm not going to say anything about my hometown, because it sucks, and I don't like being there much. I hope all the people at my high school see that.

If you really want to know more about me, you can send me some goddamn mail already!
