About Me

The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt. ~ Bertrand Russell

I really don't know how to describe myself. I'm half Brazilian, half Chinese, though I tend to identify with my Brazilian side more. I work in the exciting world of web development. I'm prone to bouts of thinly veiled sarcasm. I'm not religious, but I think it's important to respect other people's spiritual beliefs. I really enjoy outdoor activities, especially being in nature. I've really been getting into mountain biking. I can't get enough of it. I like keeping things simple in life. I'm a realist and a pragmatist. Otherwise, I'm a pretty chill person.

My Interests

I like traveling, but I never get to travel. I'm trying to change that. Mountain biking, hiking, outdoor stuff, and nature is fun. I enjoy learning about anything and everything. I'm a bit obsessed with looking up movies on IMDB.

I'd like to meet:

I'm really looking for people into mountain biking. I'm pretty new to it, but I'm definitely hooked. I like someone I can argue with. It's always good practice. I have a lot of different interests, so obviously I enjoy being around other people with eclectic interests.

Music:

I like music with a beat. I like music with soul. I like music coming from an acoustic guitar. I rarely listen to the lyrics, unless it's hip-hop. I don't know what emo is, but I don't like it. I don't like aggressive music. Music should make me happy and should make me relax.

Movies:

Office Space, Almost Famous, Blade Runner, Ghost Dad,Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Ghostbusters, Training Day, City of God, Big Fish, Snatch, Heat, Godfather movies, Goodfellas, Kill Bill 1n2, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, any overly violent 80's action movie, Saving Private Ryan, Old School, The Fifth Element, Three o'Clock High, Idiocracy, and Anchorman.

Television:

Parker Lewis Can't Lose
Hey Dude
and of course, Saved By The Bell

Books:

I like to read. I can't believe you like to read too. We should hang out. I used to read the encyclopedia for fun. I don't have time for that anymore.

Heroes:

Aquaman...talking to fish is a very marketable skill...

Tragedy or Hope?

Keith showed this to me the other day. It's funny how different people interpret this. Some see it as nice but tragic and others see it as nice and hopeful. Well, regardless, I do like it... ...

With all the recent bruhaha about Iran possibly developing nuclear technology, I guess it's easy to forget some recent history between our two nations. What recent history is this, you ask? In 1988 th...
