T.G. Swenson

A Tumblr with no central theme except to share things that amuse or interest me. I am 24 years old and living in Iowa City, IA with my wife and loving every moment of it. Currently at Kirkwood Community College and will be transferring to University of Iowa soon. Love reading books and comics, writing fiction, collecting old books and books with interesting inscriptions in them, watching all sorts of movies, playing video games (PS3 ID: TessionTG, PC - Steam: Swenny), hockey (Buffalso Sabres and St. Louis Blues fan since Kansas City still has no NHL team... *sigh* Hopefully they will someday).

What subjects will you see here: Anime (a lot of One Piece and FLCL lately), manga, comic books, super heroes, video games, rpgs, jrpgs, books, fantasy fiction, science fiction, creative writing, maybe some of my own fiction if I muster up the courage to share, favorite quotes, hockey, Buffalo Sabres, maybe some personal views of mine, art, illustrations (those that I find worth sharing and tend to be fantasy/sci-fi), concept art (for video games, books, comics, etc), things relating to Iowa and/or Iowa City,aaaand some other stuff but that is most of it.

“Whether or not Liszt knew Carl Czerny’s piano reduction of the ‘Lacrymosa’ we cannot be certain.”
..Well, that’s cryptic! My foggy brain can barely walk a straight line, let alone find innuendo in that. 

“I approached it slowly.”
lol why is that so accurate.

“Even if Stan had been privy to some of this information, he surely could not have believed they would give the job to a young, bespectacled Jew who also happened to be a damyankee—a Jew with an easy grin, a hipshot way of walking, a taste for bell-bottomed jeans on his days off, and the last ghosts of his adolescent acne still on his face.”
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I AM SERIOUSLY DISTURBED.  HE DOES NOT SOUND ATTRACTIVE. 

“I hope so,” said Dorothy, earnestly, “since you seem so anxious to have them.”
Thanks for the support, Miss Gale.

“And, of course, Mr. Whittier shook his head no.”
Damn you Mr. Whittier!

“Elmo plied the strokes with the Lieutenant’s riding crop.”
… What…Thank a lot Glen Cook and the Chronicles of the Black Company.
