About Me

It was recently brought to my attention that if you do a Google search for MagicMot that my myspace profile is the first thing that pops up. I figured I should clean up up a little and make it more presentable while I get www.magicmot.com back up and running.
I'm a 23 year old non-smoking, non-drinking, non-religious gamer dork from the Akron/Tallmadge area of Ohio. I'm a Magician. I perform at parties and corporate gigs in the area.
I'm more or less married to the girl of my dreams. We haven't actually had the wedding... and probably wont for many years, but I often refer to her as my wife, and she to me as a husband. (she's the girl in the pictures with me.)
I also have an irrational fear of ZOMBIES. Some have accused me of having an obsession with being ready for the eventual ZOMPOCALYPSE. I'm just being prepared. My girlfriend keeps telling me "there's no such thing as ZOMBIES." All I have to say is. "Not Yet."

My Interests

1. Kathy. everything about her.
2. Magic. That look of surprise a little kid gives you when you pull a coin out from behind their ear then make it disappear again is what keeps me practicing and learning new tricks.
3. Comics. I owned a comic shop for a couple years, and I got back into reading all the titles I used to when I was young... I can't believe I ever left.
4. Gaming. from card games to video games and everything in the middle.
5. My friends. I've managed to surround myself with a diverse group of interesting people. Sometimes it's fun to just sit back and watch them.6. Music. I've been labeled as a fan of Ska/Punk, but there is more in my MP3 player than that.

I'd like to meet:

Harry Anderson, you may know him as the judge on Night Court, I'm a big fan of his work as well. Jay Sanky, probably one of the funniest and creative Magicians I'm aware of.

Music:

Ska and Punk mostly. I'm trying to teach myself the harmonica, so I'm really getting into the old blues sound theses days. Some of the bands I listen to follow in no particular order.Less than Jake, Catch 22, Suicide Machines, RX Bandits, Pain, Masters of Lux, Third Eye Blind, Starting Line, Green Day, Gorillaz.

Movies:

I LOVE romantic comedy. Fully two thirds of my DVD collection is taken up by these films. Gross Point Blank is one of my favorites. The rest of the shelves are filled with the same thing as any other guy my age. Movies with things blowing up and getting shot at.... and cartoons.

Television:

I don't get to watch that much TV these days. I have been watching a lot of TV shows in box set form though.

Books:

Anything by Terry Pratchett is GOLD as far as I'm concerned. I'm also a huge fan of this little know Hungarian author by the name of Steven Brust. If you get a chance you should check him out. The Black Company series of books by Glen Cook is one I've re-read several times now and it gets better each time. I also recommend The Big Book of Amber by Rodger Zealazny. I really only have about a dozen authors that I like.... but I own every book they put out and just keep reading them again and again.

Heroes:

Harry Anderson, Penn Jillette, Troy Hooser
