Who is Mr. Applegate?
Fact? Fiction? A mongoloid? An Avatar? A man wandering the Earth
in rhinestone cowboy boots with his cock out? I can't lie or deny
anything. Read the stories, "Cheese
Studs Go West", "Happy
New Weird", or "The Successor"
and tell me that truth isn't stranger than fiction.
I also dare you, I dare you, to look at a kangaroo and not laugh.
OK, they're normally funnier than that.
What we do know is that Adam Applegate was born in the
winter of 1967 in the outskirts of Chicago and grew up in Purgatory...ie,
Milwaukee. During this, his most recent visit to Earth,
he's been a dick dancer; a drug addict; a cab driver; a sci-fi
metal singer; a bartender; a student & seeker of the absolute
truth; a cult follower; an undertaker; and the head of various
escort and sex services--not to mention the guru of his own devised
therapeutic systems of narcissism and self-humiliation.
He's been killed countless times: lying on the floor after a
crack binge or crushed in a car accident.
He's cleared thousands of dollars one year . . . filed bankruptcy
the next.
Gone to jail on account of women, booze, and bad ideas: twice.
But who is Mr. Applegate, you ask?
Stranger than fiction. Real shit.
