People ask me all the time what or who my influences are. To be honest, it would take a decent set of encyclopedias to get them all down. I am here today to let the world know my greatest influence, my secret ingredient, really. What inspires me? That's simple: COFFEE.

I mean come on. Do you know how easy it is to be famous these days? Do you have any idea? The web has made it plausible to have your very own platform to stand and spew nonsense from on an hourly basis. There's an old saying: when everyone is special, no one will be. These days, everybody thinks they're special, so no one really does anything to be special anymore.

I think of how and where all the horrible people I've come across in my life ended up, and I smile.

Life owes you nothing. You owe yourself everything.

Everyone knows Spiderman is my favorite superhero of all time. My favorite supervillain? George W. Bush.

The biggest difference between me and other artists out there is that they'll put anything out to sell a record or sell a ticket.

I still harbor lingering doubts about most people. I guess I always will.
