Bones
Bio written by E. Dominguez: Bones is an enigma wrapped in a riddle, lightly
toasted on both sides. Raised by dingoes in the Australian outback, he
relocated at an impressionable age to the Nevada desert, where he witnessed
the tumultuous adolescence of the Atomic Age. His primary interests are
irony and subtlety; he is currently working on a coffee-table book of
crime scene photos. Bones is available for lunch, and can be reached through
his web site.
