We've come too far, We are so close, One soul inside, One forever weeping

About Me

HI, welcome to myspace. If you're here you're probably lost. Feel free to stay and wait for the search party to find you (or until the pitchfork and torch bearing mob comes for me). As with most of you, I could probably type pages about my life and the experiances it's contained thus far. This is just a little bit about me, minus the drama and boring details.
I'm the husband of Scooby (see friends below) and together we have a baby boy named Gunnar (pronounced something like the norwiegen way). :) That's kid number 2 for me now. He's nearly a year old (this January). My first, my daughter Skylar is 10 this past August (she lives in Ny). The wife and I live in a little town here in NH. In general a very nice place to be. Low crime and virtually no taxes."Live Free or Die" is more then just a motto to me.
As you see by my interests I'm into several diffent things. Music beingthe biggest part of that. Instead of boring you with a long list ofbands you probably won't read anyway, I decided to embed some videos ofbands I really like. The other major interest is the internet and web page design. I'm the web master of a fan-site for the doom metal act Cathedral. These guys have been in the scene so long that they have become the standard of what's heavy in doom (or stoner if you must). Check out my page Neophytes for Serpent Eve to look, listen, and know more of this great band.
Still working on learning the guitar. Haven't done much with it in the past year and a half or so. I told myself I was going to, but got really busy and a little fustrated with things and set it down for awhile. I've had it about two years now. It's a BC Rich Warlock bronze series, one of my favorite guitars (unfortunately it's not the platinum with the widow headstock however). I also like the Mockingbird basses and the Bich, also by BC Rich. I got a Coffin Case body bag for it so I can take it out of the house. Check out Coffin Case in my friends if you want a wicked looking case to keep your guitar in. Yeah, these are a little tacky, but very cool looking, so who really gives a fuck.
I drive a 1987 Firebird I am trying to restore. Did some motor work over the summer to make it go (it was in real rough shape when I got it), but there's much to do. Now that winter's here, the heater decided to go. So I guess it's my next project.
I miss my doggie Manson (german shepherd x norwiegen elkhound x low % of wolf hybred). Gave him up last year to put a roof over my families head. :(

Now for something
completely Different...

The New Things that annoy me on Myspace;
Myspace collectors (do some people really talk to all 14,000+ friends?), slow servers, PEOPLE WHO TYPE IN ALL CAPS or AlTeRnAtInG cApS AnD lOwErCaSe (there's no need to SHOUT and YoU'rE nOt CoOl), those who cannot use real words when typing something that many people will read (ur for 'you are' as an example. Between friends is fine. On your profile it's really fucking annoying), Tom the prophet of doom, Error messages and the myspace technical group, internet whores who want to be added and refer you too their other site (which you need a credit card to access, people who believe Tom is real, users who believe every bullitin hoax they read, chain letters threatening me to do something or else, Bands who want to be added but sound nothing like what I'm into, People who ask to be added but share no common interests, forum users that don't read posts (or Google an answer) before asking their question, ... There's lots more things , but trying to name them now I'm drawing a blank. I'll keep adding to this over time I guess...

My Interests

Computers and website design (image and sound editing), Writing, Photography, Painting, Sculpture, Listening to music, Role playing games (D&D, Call of Cthulhu, etc), Playing bass and guitar, American muscle cars, Collecting skulls/skeletons, period knife/dagger and swords, and McFarland horror movie and music figures, Keeping reptiles, arachnids, and marine reef tanks, Coffee, The goth subculture, Wicca, Tarot and Ouija. The paranormal and supernatural, The 1980's, and more...

I'd like to meet:

The guys in Cathedral again. Anyone who's not a myspace collector and has similar interests Fans of the bands I have on my friends list (or the bands themselves) feel free to say hey.

Music:

Traditional Heavy metal, Doom metal (and 'stoner'), a little Death and Black metal, NWOBHM bands, Progressive metal, German Speed/thrash from the 80's, 1980's Glam rock, some Goth and Trip-hop (like Hungry Lucy), 80's 'modern rock' (to use the term of the period), psychedelic rock/metal, old punk, 70's rock and metal....

Movies:

Some of my Faves are Johnny Depp's movies like Edward Scissor hands and Nightmare before Christmas (Corpse Bride to a lesser extent), The Crow (the first and second only), City of Lost Children (french), The Hellraiser series, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (Johnny Depp again), Donnie Darko, Cecil B. Demented, Rocky Horror Picture Show,um, more b "horror" movies then I could remember.Evil Dead series (Army of Darkness), Nightmare on Elm St (the first only), Hammer Horror classics, Troma Films (Toxic Avenger and Nuke'em High especially), Vampire flicks...even the bad ones like Dracula 2000. And porn, of course. Just too many movies to name really.

Television:

I used to watch old shows like Cheers and Nightcourt, Animal planet shows (jeff Corwin is cool), Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Sealab 2021, Family Guy, Futurama, Sliders, Star Trek and Star Trek TNG, Are You Being Served, Red Dwarf, The Black Adder, Mr Bean, Dr Who ...ummm not much else. Oh, That Seventies Show and dare I say Charmed (don't look at me like that, I watch it for the TnA...hahahaha). KILL YOUR Tv.... unless you have some good dvd's. Then you can just hold it hostage for awhile.

Books:

I don't read much of anything (no time). I do like gothic horror novels, scifi/fantasy novels, books on the supernatural and paranormal, the occult/demonology, Nostradamus, and numerous books on witchcraft.

Heroes:

Which fucked-up genius composer are you?
Nick Cave... dark and creepy. You're a bi-polar genius, with equal passion for the most degrading aspects of humanity, as well as the beauty & wonder of God and Heaven.

You scored as XIII: Death. Death is probably the most well known Tarot card - and also the most misunderstood. Most Tarot novices would consider Death to be a bad card, especially given its connection with the number thirteen. In fact this card rarely indicates literal death.Without "death" there can be no change, only eventual stagnation. The "death" of the child allows for the "birth" of the adult. This change is not always easy. The appearance of Death in a Tarot reading can indicate pain and short term loss, however it also represents hope for a new future.

Which Major Arcana Tarot Card Are You?
created with QuizFarm.com

You are The Magician

Skill, wisdom, adaptation. Craft, cunning, depending on dignity.

Eleoquent and charismatic both verbally and in writing, you are clever, witty, inventive and persuasive.

The Magician is the male power of creation, creation by willpower and desire. In that ancient sense, it is the ability to make things so just by speaking them aloud. Reflecting this is the fact that the Magician is represented by Mercury. He represents the gift of tongues, a smooth talker, a salesman. Also clever with the slight of hand and a medicine man - either a real doctor or someone trying to sell you snake oil.
