ason Scavone is a 1998 graduate of Lex Luthor University, where he majored in Mad Science with a minor in Evil Business Administration. He's since been a nonstop disappointment to his mother by failing to put that education to work, instead taking up residence as an award-winning Las Vegas-based writer.

Faith No More Digs Out of the Grave
Cuepoint (Medium), April 28, 2015
In a swirl of cosmic injustice, Faith No More and the proto-rap-rock of “Epic” were consigned to the pop culture collective unconscious as the face that launched a thousand ships, all of them christened SS Limp Bizkit.
