HOME: The lungs of hell.

AGE: So what?

PROFESSION: Killing is his business.

HOBBIES: Covering Nancy Sinatra tunes; rubbing noses with ex-Sex Pistol Steve Jones; spewing incisive social commentary under the guise of mindless speedmetal; promoting anarchy in the U.S.A. frantically twisting and thrashing about, not unlike a big, beached trout.

BEER: Boy Howdy!
