About Me

I am Derek. I listen to industrial, rock, metal, and pretty much some of everything else. If you see me around I'll probably be wearing a sport shirt. I am a geek. I can probably beat you at pool unless I've had too many drinks or you are good. Gin tastes like Christmas trees but Christmas trees taste fine.It's not that I don't like you. In fact, I probably want to talk to you, I'm just shy. I love to laugh.I watch Wes Anderson films. I don't have cable. I'm not really sure what I should be telling you but my favorite song is Whale and Wasp by Alice In Chains. Sad but moving. If you've heard it, it won't surprise you that I don't listen to lyrics in music.Add me to msn at [email protected] and tell me interesting things that require some thought. I don't do enough thinking. Actually, most people don't do enough.I am Smiley.

My Interests

I'm going through a transitional period, so I'm not really sure what I'm interested in at the moment.

Maybe you, actually probably you, but you'd have to buy me lunch or a drink first. Those are the rules. I didn't make them up.

Movies:

Let's see, what's on my computer now? Royal Tenebaums, Ghostbusters, Blues Brothers, Kill Bill, Resevoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction. (I don't like Tarantino, really I don't.) The Pink Panther series is awesome, Kung Fu Hustle, Napolean Dynamite, Super Troopers, The Boondock Saints, Clockwork Orange, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Irreversible, Thank You For Smoking, The Squid and the Whale, The Last King of Scotland.

Television:

I don't get TV in my dungeon. Family Guy, Futurama, CSI (more so the early seasons), The Daily Show, Law & Order (Again more the early seasons), The Office. I can relate to The Office. I used to sit at a phone and sell paper all day :( Probably some other shows, but like I said I don't have tv.

Books:

Who reads books? I read the news. I read some technical stuff once and a while but it's usually pretty dry. I just can never find the time to read. Maybe I'm not reading the right things or maybe I have shitty motivation.

Heroes:
