Hello,
I am looking for a creative space to live in. It’s time for me to move out of the place I’ve been in for the last year. Here’s a list of descriptive words for me: queer, anarchist, post-punk, artist, bicycle centric. Mostly I read, write, draw, and make zines. You can see some comics and zines I’ve done on my blogs listed below, or I could give you the real deal paper version.
This year I attended Laney College for figure drawing and portraiture. I just started a seasonal job at Toys in Babeland which will last until next year, and then I plan on moving back into gardening work, or another sex positive, queer friendly job.
I am a solid house mate. I pay rent and bills on time and I clean up after myself. I’m looking for a place where people are respectful and supportive of each other. And fun.
I have been living more healthy, paying attention to the effects caused by the things that I put in my body. I rarely drink. I quit smoking. These things were just feeling unhealthy, so I stopped doing them. I am not an anal person tho, I don’t judge other people.
I have lots of construction skills, I can fix things. I am a good cook. I would love to live in a house where folks are cooking together.

I was digging thru a basket of goodies at my folks house and came upon these newspaper articles, I had mailed them to my parents while we were on our shanty boats, Ohio River in 2006. There are some good photographers along the Ohio River, they made us look good!

It has been a great season for The Wafflehouse backyard raised bed gardens in West Oakland. We sprouted from seeds Dinosaur kale, Curly Kale, Tomatos, Zuchini, Eggplant, Snap Peas, Blackberries, Elder Berries, Salad Greens, Sorrel, Hot Peppers, Green Bell Peppers.
Difficulties with pocket gophers eating the roots of certain plants from their tunnels. I would notice the leaves wilting, then touching the stalk of the plant i found that there were no roots attaching it to the ground! It started with the peas, we flushed the tunnel with the garden hose and they dissappeared for awhile.
They returned this month to eat the roots out from under the eggplants, every damn single one. I hosed the hole right there in the middle of the raised bed, but i feel like the gophers had already retreated. I believe they have learned that this area is prone to sudden flooding. I can only be happy that they seem disinclined to consume the roots of the kale plants, the leaves of which i eat nearly every day! Do they realize this, and we have reached symbiosis? No, i think kale roots must be boring and tasteless to them. They also have left the zuchini roots alone. We are thankful.
Another issue was the white mold that completely overtook the zuchini plants, covering the top side of the leaves and surely blocking off the sunlight, putting a halt to the plant’s photosynthesis. The production of zuchini squash slowed drastically.
I searched the web for a solution to the white mold problem and found a post that suggested a mixture of 50% water and 50% milk sprayed on the leaves. I found a simple trigger spray bottle and some milk from the fridge that was expired, sprayed the leaves with it. The next few days a drastic change happened to the leaves, overnight they became green again! The white mold was killed thru some chemical/acidity change caused by the milk.
Hooray! I love it when a plan comes together. -Rob

Halloween New Years. Here we go. They are going to drop a pumpkin at midnight...
A punk show in the living room of 714 Humboldt St., Santa Rosa, CA, the first punk house I ever lived in. I believe that AFI is playing. This must have been around 1994 abouts. Roger and me are playing his arcade video game in the corner, "Blasteroids" in the pit! A-head, Glenn, Walter, Mark, Josh, and who else is in this picture? Damn look at my long ass metal hair. ( I would give credit to the photographer but I don't know who took it, was it you Heather?)
Swiped this copy off the wall of the Phoenix Theater during Nostalgia Fest 2009. That was the most amazing thing ever. To see all these people and bands re-united after 15 years, what the fuck! Never felt so much love.
Check out a little slide show of our old friends!
