Who is drunkenhousecat anyway?
I don't know about you but I get real tired of explaining who I am to people. I mean, sometimes when I get an e-mail or whatever I have to type out a bunch of stuff that informs the asker about myself. I only type with one finger and it gets boring anyway. It seemed a whole lot easier to just make a page out of it, you know? With that in mind, I slapped this little sucker together by filling in a bunch of blank spaces in an Angelfire html form.
So...
Let's see here...
My full name is Rock Benjamin Armstrong. Really (but you can call me "cat" or "d.cat chopra" if you'd rather be formal). I live in Santa Monica, California, where I was born on 3/12/56. I'm a Pisces. I wear glasses. I'm a huge media freak, almost a geek even. I used to write for The New Monkees TV show and I once worked in The Beverly Center (a rather upscale mall in Los Angeles).
