I like pinball over arcades. I think religion is funny and politics are scary. I bowl often. I prefer to stay up late. Milkcrates. I have a cat. I like spraying styrofoam pellets at people. Bananabread Eggos. Amateur librarianship. I have a couple tattoos. I'd be very interested in some slot-car racing, or at least a power adapter that'll work with mine.
I'd like to meet:
I like meeting decent people with cool ideas and positive outlooks.
If possible, some day it would be nice to meet Osama Bin Laden's niece:
I would like to meet Chris Elliott, Paul Reubens or Terry Gilliam on a movie set, Steve Cartwright at a developer's conference, "Bob" Dobbs on the pleasure saucers of the sex goddesses...
