Theatre: technical theatre is my specialty. I like straight plays mostly...and really like Eugene O'Neill!
Cars: all kinds of cars...sports cars, muscle cars...big, little...they're all good.
Driving them, working on them, looking at them...whatever.
Boats: pretty much the same as with cars...but being on, near the water...so much nicer!
Woodworking: both as a hobby and as a profession. Professionally I built scenery for theatre productions. As a hobby I build furniture and shelving for myself, my family and my friends.
I enjoy long, deep in depth discussions about life, philosophy, trying to figure it all out. Why are we here? Why do we do what we do? Why are we all the same? Why are we all different?
Music...see below.
I'd like to meet:
I am interested in meeting all kinds of people...both here in "myspace" and in reality...oh, and Jennifer Nettles and Jessica Harp. :)
Oh, and I mustn't forget the sweet Karista Smith... :)Here's my Zune Card :)
Music:
Music is one of the most important things in life...I like a wide variety of music styles; everything from rock to jazz to blues, and even some country, r&b and the occasional rap/hip-hop thing too. The most important thing about music to me is not the style or genre, but whether or not it speaks to me--to my soul. Favoites include: SRV, Social Distortion, Metallica, TSOL, James Carter, Keb Mo, Bauhaus, Smithereens, Ramones, ZZ Hill, Rush, Sisters of Mercy, New Order, NIN, John Hiatt, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Godsmack, etc...
Movies:
Some favorites are:
American Beauty--
Die Hard--
Shawshank Redemption--
Better Off Dead--
Heaven Can Wait--
The River's Edge--
Angelheart--
deLovely--
Usual Suspects--
Gone Baby, Gone
Television:
CSI, CSI-Miami, Without a Trace, Heroes, The Closer and Monk, Life, Chuck
Books:
William Gibson, Stephen R. Donaldson and Carl Hiaasen are favorites...along with the old standby of Robert Heinlein.
I hope to start reading Randy Wayne White and Paulo Coelho soon as well...
I also strongly recommend a book called "Coming Home to Self" by Nancy Verrier, for anyone that is in anyway involved with adoption.
Heroes:
My mom, my dad, and my grandmother (on my mom's side) are the only heroes I have ever known or had...just wonderful beautiful people.
Though theses people are not necessarily heroes, they are in the category of "if more people in the world were like ________, it would be a better place." A few of those people are: Terri Boggs Deatley, Gary "G" Crase, Michelle Burstion, et al...
