About Me

I'm learning Japanese.
Sometimes I hang out with Japanese Rockers and take pictures.

I wrote a play.
I made a movie.

I was a school teacher for 5 years.
I was a stage actor for 10 years.
I take a lot of photographs.

Really. A lot. (click it!)

My Interests

Writing, photography, science, spontaneous travel, video games, hikes, blackjack in Vegas, and my Netflix list is mad crazy.

I'd like to meet:

Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless--like water.
Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup,
You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle,
You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot.
Now water can *flow* or it can *crash*!
Be water, my friend.
-- Bruce Lee
