About Me

I had dreadlocks from Feb 2003 until Burning Man 2007. I threw them into the fire and it was amazing. Don't worry- I still have my magic powers. I guess I'm an Internet Celebrity , so I'll have an underground sex video coming out soon. I am a computer nerd that skateboards, snowboards, wakeboards, bikes, and is pretty much in shape. My CD collection has jam bands, punk rock, classic rock, bluegrass, and alternative. I like being healthy. I try to be vegan, but to me it's about knowing where my food comes from and how my choices support the industry. I don't support KFC's supplier cruelty, so I don't eat there.
I worked at the U giving campus tours, so I know a lot about campus. Now I fix computers for the College of Humanites.
I drove across the country to about 20 concerts in 2004. I am writing a book about it. I always seem to have crazy stories about my life. I am happy most of the time and very positive. I could be a Network Administrator or a Truck Driver and still be content. I am a trusting and playful person, which sometimes gets me in trouble. I possess an awesome power to shape the world around me that I am learning how to wield: I have a strong reality.
I just started entering my money into Where's George.com . You should too. I am annoyed by how many emails have something boring and unhelpful like "hi" in the subject. Why not "Fred Flintstone's Dirty Secret"? Which email would you read first? I enjoy long emails, so don't worry if you feel like you're rambling.

I Am An ENFP
The Inspirer
I love being around people and I am deeply committed to my friends.
I am also unconventional, irreverant, and unimpressed by authority and rules.
Incredibly perceptive, I can usually sense if someone has hidden motives.
I use lots of colorful language and expressions. I'm quite the storyteller!
I would make an excellent entrepreneur, politician, or journalist. What's Your Personality Type?

My Interests

Concerts, Dancing, Movies, Collecting Media, Music, Outdoor Activities, Hiking, Meditation, Photography, Extreme Sports: Snowboarding, Longboarding, Telemark Skiing, Wakeboarding, Surfing, Skateboarding; Travel, Connecting with Strangers, Tree Hugging, Treasure Hunts

If your eyes follow the movement of the rotating pink dot, you will only see one color, pink. If you stare at the black + in the center, the moving dot turns to green. Now, concentrate on the black + in the center of the picture. After a short period of time, all the pink dots will slowly disappear, and you will only see a green dot rotating if you're lucky!
It's amazing how our brain works. There really is no green dot, and the pink ones really don't disappear. This should be proof enough, we don't always see what we think we see.

I'd like to meet:

Anybody who wants to be inspired! I'd like to meet anybody that wants a change in their perspective. Bands that won't be playing near Salt Lake in the next 2 years shouldn't add me. If your band doesn't play happy music, don't add me either. If you are a time traveler, I'd like to speak with you. Whistleblowers, conpriracy theorists, aliens, and philosphers are great conversationalists. Also, contact me if you have a message or revelation for me- I always welcome those. You can add me to MSN: malacoid.hotmail.com or Malacoid on AIM.

Music:

Phish, String Cheese Incident, Railroad Earth, Ani DiFranco, moe., Ben Harper, Widespread Panic, The Dead, Pink Floyd, Muse, RadioHead, Velvet Underground, David Bowie, Tom Petty, Kaki King, Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin, Hot Buttered Rum String Band, Eddie from Ohio, Keller Williams, STS9, Yonder Mountain String Band, Smashing Pumpkins, Hello Goodbye, Panic at the Disco!, Counting Crows.
