About Me

As you may know, I work at a pretty popular music based retail company's IT department. I get to play with computers all day long - creating, automating, problem solving. It's comparable to getting paid to have fun, so I'm following my dream.

Currently, I am taking on a project. Actually, it became a bet/challenge to be financially sound by a specified time frame. So far, I'm losing.

Snowboarding became a passion, especially when I'm able to share it with the in-/experienced. So if you're down to carve it up or learn to carve, contact me.

I'm pretty easy-going, although I've been tempered with past incidents. I just want to go through life with a myriad of experiences.

My Interests

leaving the house
driving my car =(
... err .. motorcycle =(
... err .. car again

snowboarding (it's not just an interest)
drinking alcholic beverages (no more liquor)
getting dissed at clubs (seems to be my favorite pastime)

I'd like to meet:

heres some people i've already met:

get the bigger picture?

You want to know who I'd like to meet? That's the reason your on this site, right? It's simple. Someone who will get to know me, goes out on a limb to make it known they want to learn me. Passive and beautiful -- inside and out. Someone who can keep up with my pace and can lead when I slow down. Someone who likes time spent in good company and if you can hold a good converstation ... you're golden.

That's bullshit, because I've searched and she hasn't made herself known yet... or has she?

Music:

some underground hip hop.
some reggae, dancehall or roots.
some good break beats.
original beats and breaks.
punk during the season.
and old school slow jams ... so.

Movies:

usual suspects
poolhall junkies
brown sugar
full metal jacket
snatch

and because i'm old school like that:
ghost in the shell
akira

Television:

c'mon now ...
history channel, discovery channel, speed channel, cnn
what else? oh and my new channel .. cnbc!

Books:

hacking exposed 2nd ed.
linux in a nutshell
someone buy me "parallel worlds" by m. kaku
yea, I'm a geek

Heroes:

no one every really inspired me

My Blog

I guess we all been through it ...

... where we try too much, losin yourself and you're lyin' and stuff, wishin for the diamond cuffs, in search of a ring, where love is not a mystery it's everything
