How would you be perceived?
As a genius, or deluded, or a bit of both. Or maybe, more likely, as being a bit lazy.

What over-arching themes would we see?
Inertia, indecision, silliness. It'd be the opposite of a roller coaster ride.

What would be on the cover?
A picture of a robotic dog

What details would everyone be bored by?
The pages and pages of random lists!

What photos would be in the middle?
My star trek picture! Pictures of west London. Pictures of bands I like.

Huk-L: A Life in Bagels by David Crosby

― Huk-L, Thursday, 21 October 2004 17:18 (twenty-one years ago)

the middle of mine would be great, as it would list my many accomplishments such as being a founder member of Stiff Little Fingers, getting my own CBS prime-time variety show, and then have a Space Shuttle named after me.

it would be the ending that would be a drag, as it details my slow withdrawal from public life and ever more increasing reliance on cold syrup & jelly donuts, until i'm finally nothing but an old cantakerous pamphleteer making long-winded rants against crypto-fascists on cable-access in Fargo, N.D.

the cover photo would be a promo shot of me with La Parka & Hijo de Santo during our long reign as champions in the mexican feds CMLL/AAA, when we were the first lucha libre team to be knighted by the Queen on worldwide TV.

Jeremy I'm really hoping that's you as a child.

Oh, it is.

I'm seeing cats as a theme in mine.

And the fact that I've moved around so much. (very unstable)

And I think it goes without saying that all of our lives would be analyzed to death. And EVERYTHING would become a symbol.
