About Me

I'm one of the most laid-back, easygoing people you're likely to meet. It's difficult to make me angry. Someone once asked me what my reaction would be if they poured their soda all over me. I said, "I wouldn't be angry...probably just disappointed that I was wet." Though I have been accused of being cynical, I'm actually optimistic about the possibilities of human accomplishment. I admire both the artist and the scientist who are inspired by imagination and the betterment of society over the pursuit of wealth. I work at Next IT Corporation in Spokane, a company on the cutting edge of human emulation. I have a degree in Electronic Media and Film and enjoy britcoms, science fiction, music, writing about music, and discussing music with others.

Moscow Sniper Ambush

If you haven't heard, someone else went crazy and shot a bunch of people.  The "Moscow Sniper Ambush" (a moniker which, if you watch KXLY, you can actually blame me for) is yet further proof that...
