About Me

I'm a civicly-minded, socially responsible, open-minded, sarcastic, blunt, and opinionated person. I like electronic music, preferably of the goth/industrial (more specifically...EBM, synthpop, futurepop, noize, and darkwave) variety. That's not by any means the only type of music I like though, it's simply what I tend to prefer (except when I want some good classical). I have a very low tolerance for ignorance and stupidity. I can't stand bad drivers. I'm not the most social of people, but I do have a decent number of friends. I'm the guy you come to when you want the honest, to the point, no-nonsense answer to a question. I'm a gamer, a "geek" as some might say...not a *video* gamer, just a plain gamer. I do play video games, but I also play real games too, and I love them all. I also take time to indulge my love of amateur photography from time to time...I typically focus on landscapes or animals, rather than people. I write, poetry and short stories, whenever inspiration strikes me...I also write song lyrics (well, I've been trying to recently) for a musical project that I am involved with. There's a lot more to me than this blurb, but this is all I care to share. I'm not here to go out of my way to meet people, but I'm not opposed to meeting interesting individuals.
Which Tarot Card Are You?
You are the Justice card. Justice preserves the harmony of the world. Working with opposite forces, Justice does not seek to criticize or condemn but rather to accept. The idea behind the card justice is that opposite forces are complementary; you could not have good without evil or light without darkness. Justice's position is to make sure that if a thing is out of balance, the weight of its energy is realigned with its opposite force. This card is also a card of humour, for it is in pointing out contrary positions that humour is often found. The attitude that is found in the humourous person, being able to shift perspective and flow with an instinct, is important in the maintenance of good balance.

My Interests

I have more interests than I can easily name here. I love to read, cook, play games, dance, DJ, and lots more.

I'd like to meet:

If I don't know you and you don't have enough guts to send me a message, don't expect me to add you to my friends. Even then, don't expect me to add you to my friends list...unless you can make a good impression on me. If you like drama, want to live your life like you're in highschool forever, don't waste my time trying to be my friend. I'm on this thing to help me keep in touch with friends, not to see how many random people will accept a request to pretend I'm their friend. I DO NOT want to meet "aspiring musicians" whose music is shit. If you can't get your music decently mastered, adjust your levels properly, write decent lyrics, and/or play at least semi-original melodies then don't even waste the few minutes of my time trying to get me to listen to your crap. On the other hand, if you have decent electronic (goth/industrial genres, preferably) music, please DO take up some of my time (still don't expect me to add you if you don't send me a damn message though).

Music:

If I tried to list every band I enjoy, I'd be here for hours. Suffice to say I normally listen to electro/industrial...no, I'm not going to bother listing all the subdivisions of that. I also enjoy classic rock, classical, 80s, and just about everything except newer country music (stuff that was recorded after the 60s) and most rap/hip-hop. Music is one of my true passions, which means I don't limit myself much.

Movies:

Mostly serious movies. Primarily sci-fi, thriller/horror types, and dramatic films. Dune, The Last Emperor, Amadeus, Event Horizon, The Deer Hunter, and lots more.

Television:

I'm not a big fan of TV. I'd say there are maybe a dozen stations I might watch from the 100+ I have with digital cable. I'd prefer to play computer games or go out dancing than sit at home and watch TV. Hell, even going to see a movie is higher on my list since there're no commercials.

Books:

I have an eclectic collection. Everything from fantasy/sci-fi to philosophy. You can find Dragonlance and Forgotten Realms sitting next to the Marquis De Sade and 21 Lessons of Merlin. Those are next to the Dune chronicles, right above Voltaire, Jung, and Socrates which are next to Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking. Is that a good enough selection to confuse you?

Heroes:

None. I don't believe in having "heroes" for myself. There are people I respect, but no one that I "look up to" with the attitude that they are better than I am and I should strive to be like them. I'd rather just worry about being who I am.

Think about it? Yeah, more people should.

Argh!

Okay, so I just want to say that I absolutely abhor receiving idiotic spam messages on myspace. It's funny, sort of, that I keep getting quite a few friend requests from bands and random people after ...
