What's the point?

Well I am giving this a go. First off my title comes from a zine I published back in the 90's while I had the job as a fast food janitor. The zine was well received world wide, and I sort of like to stick to something that works. Maybe it might draw in some people that may remember me from the handle. I loved writing the zine about a horrible job situation. Though I haven't had the job for over 10 years the nightmares of  the place still occur. 
The moniker does sort of still pertain to my personal life when it comes to collecting things. Although most people would recommend the help of a personal organizer for me, I love gathering things around me. My excuse is that I use the flotsam and jetsam for inspiration for various art projects and I generally like to have objects surrounding me just to look at. I look at things. I see things. I watch TV and movies. I do not read. Some day I will list the all books I have read in my life. It will take me approximately 3 minutes to compose the list, only because I am a slow typist.
I have also made the decision that after 10 years of being a lurker on the computer that I should put myself out there a bit. We shall see.

Expect nothing, but I will try with this.
