About Me

My Interests

Learning about the world we live in, mainly the science of what makes it flow. I enjoy many small pleasures in life: tasting wine, drinking micro-brews, baking cookies, late nights, traveling on vacation, watching movies, a good joke. I have a fluctuating interest in Poli Sci that diminishes quickly when topics of only moderate interest in headline news don't change within a week or two.

I'd like to meet:

Ben Folds just to have a sit down where I can't help but gush how great I think he is. I'd like to meet many of the friends that Christine has spread around the Country I've yet to meet; as all the friends of hers I've met already are interesting and easy to get along with. I'd like to continue to meet people who specialize in what they love in life, and fully embrace it, as it helps me to expand my own interests.

Music:

I don't think I'd still be exercising if it wasn't for electronic/techno artists out there giving me the right motivation to keep on going. Armin in particular with State Of Trance keeps my jogging fresh on a weekly basis. As for all time favorites and standards: The Beatles, Ben Folds, Foo Fighters, Billy Joel, Mozart. There are too many other talented artists to list who span dozens of genres, but in short I like to mix it up.

Why havn’t I been going to shows lately?
