vravina@gmail.comThis journal is so called because I used to be a magician and, one time, my friend Paul Fenton came to see me perform. I showed him a trick and he was utterly amazed. After the show, he came up and said, "Vincenzo, you are one skilled bastard." So, I named my LiveJournal 'skilledbastard'.
Vincenzo Ravina is a writer and a journalism student at the University of King’s College.
He is cripplingly shy but not anti-social. He is obnoxiously inquisitive. His favourite punctuation marks are the semi-colon and the tilde. He keeps lists of interesting words, names and phrases. He never deletes emails and has trouble throwing things away. He brushes his teeth so hard his dentist was all like, "Slow your roll! Your gums are receding!" Intense. His worst fear is Alzheimer's.
His favourite animal is the giraffe. His second favourite is the penguin. He staunchly believes that Superman is better than Batman and would beat him in a fight. If you are Zooey Deschanel, Vincenzo will marry you. If it isn’t in the Oxford English Dictionary, it isn’t a word.
Vices: Gum, curiosity, nail-biting.
In his spare time, he writes short stories and long stories.
He lives in squalor.
