Anything that goes fast, Motorcycles, Jetskis, I love driving fast in my car with the windows down and music real loud, anything that flies is cool, Space, pro football, video games. Every once in a while I like to enjoy some of the finer things like seeing a play, going to a museum, or enjoying some good food and a nice restaurant. I love playing drums - I'm constantly drummin on my desk or my car or whatever is in front of me. I want to go all over - the UK, Germany, Greece, Italy, France, Cairo, Moscow, all over the U.S. - everywhere! And I like dancing like an idiot to oldies songs like Elton Jon or The Temptations. :-D
I like meeting and making friends with people that have goals and ambition combined with the drive to reach them, but at the same time know the importance of stopping to smell the roses or be silly every once in a while. These are the people I most admire, respect, and like to surround myself with and that's the person I strive to be.One more thing - friend requests are welcome, but please message me first.

Anything but scary movies. Scary movies suck. Some of my favorites: Bourne Supremacy and Identity, Good Will Hunting, The Last Samurai, Dogma, Ocean's Eleven, Office Space (Have you seen my stapler?), Ferris Bueller's Day Off... Really there's not a whole lot of movies I don't like. I also have 4 different Eddie Izzard stand up DVDs. He's HILARIOUS.
I flip between Discovery, Military, G4TechTV, and then CBS, ABC, NBC, etc. looking for something good. My favorite things to watch are football and Numb3rs on Friday nights.
I usually like Tom Clancy, but I'm getting tired of his writing style and the way he jumps around between a million different stories all the time. So I had a change of pace by reading 'The Five People You Meet In Heaven' and it was really good. Also read the Da Vinci Code which was really good. And I'm currently horribly addicted to Harry Potter. Update: Da Vinci code was really good. The book is a little better than the movie but the movie was good too. Almost done with Daughter of God. That's hit the backburner pretty bad. I read a lot of the stories from "When they were 22." It's sort of a biography, but instead of focusing on one person, it talks about a lot of different people at age 22. Dad gave it to me, it was pretty good.
Burt Rutan and Mike Melville for their amazing story of Space Ship One. Richard Branson for being a self made billionaire who also generally seems like a bad ass and a cool dude and for starting Virgin Galactic along with Burt Rutan and Mike Melville. To some degree, CliffyB. He does some great work and it's pretty amazing that he got into the industry at 17 and has just been doin his thing ever since. And, as cheesy as it sounds, my Dad.
