Sullen, withdrawn, ill, and prone to melancholia, I love inclement weather and despise sunny days. I think everything looks better with snow covering it. I also think most things look better in black and white.

I have a serious problem with "progress". I think all new buildings should be torn down and replaced with old ones. I'd like to take a ball and chain to demolition companies. I think most modern architects should be drawn and quartered. I blame lawyers and money-hungry developers for the destruction of beauty in this world. I would like to start a huge bonfire using them as fuel.

Whenever something from the past is deemed obsolete and ceases production, I hold a funeral in its memory and curse the uncharismatic minions who brought on its demise. The decline of film as pictures are replaced by pixels causes me no end of dismay.

I think this world should be ashamed of itself.

Oh, and I'm from Northern Catatonia but I now live in Chicago with a girlfriend, two dogs, a cat, a Holga 120N, a Pickwik, a Brownie Starmite, a Brownie Hawk-Eye 3A, a Ferrania Rondine, a Pentax K-1000, a Brownie Hawkeye Flash, and, sigh, an infernal Canon Rebel XT.
