Pete Goldfinger
Pete Goldfinger is a writer in Los Angeles. He enjoys this vocation because it allows him to live rather anonymously in his office (bedroom), but for the odd visit from his wife and two daughters who occasionally bring him a little bite of cheese wrapped in a bill that reads "DISCON-NECT" or "COLLECTION AGENCY." What he doesn't do much is stand on stages, and get judged like a farm animal at the county fair. Oh boy? For more info about Pete or to order cheap drugs from Canada, you can go to petegoldfinger.com
