I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Me v.3 -I'm a laid-back kinda guy who likes mental stimulation. I like movies, books, computers, sex, catching a buzz, and video games. I pride myself on being honest and forthcoming. I'm the kind of guy who can be the most loyal of friends or the bitterest enemy. I prefer to stay out of trouble. I don't give a damn about fashion or what's popular. I really couldn't care less what celeb is sleeping with who or who's ahead in the World Series (or Final 4 or race the Super Bowl, etc.) I've never sat through a whole episode of American Idol or Big Brother in my life. I think MTV is a sorry excuse for the cool channel it once was. I am a father and a husband, and these take up a great portion of my time. I really don't like my job, but until something better becomes available, I'm not going anywhere. Being a responsible adult can sometimes be a pain in the ass, but I wouldn't go back to what I was if you paid me. Live. Learn. Laugh.
The Mac or PC Rap Which will it be?

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'm pretty happy being married, but we don't know many couples to hang with.

Music:

I choose my music based on lyrical content. These days, I mostly listen to underground hip-hop (NOTE: really big damn difference between hip-hop and the bullshit you hear on Power 106 or KGGI) and classic rock. My all time favorite band is Pink Floyd, others I dig include : Brother Ali, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Visionaries, Metallica, Atmosphere, Audioslave, Living Legends, Queen, Benefit

Movies:

I am kind of a movie freak, and to list all the movies I've liked would take all day to type, and almost as long to read. Highlights : Fight Club (still #1 favorite), American Beauty, Crash, Monty Python, Pi, Ghost in the Shell, Spaceballs, all the new Shakespeare re-imaginings (Romeo + Juliet, O, Titus, etc). I really dig the new wave of horror and thriller movies that are coming from Asia...

Television:

Most of the shows I like got left behind when we moved and no longer have cable... :( Favorites include Southpark (!!!!), Comedy Central Presents, House, CSI, Mythbusters, Modern Marvels, Dirty Jobs, L&O:CI, Family Guy, Robot Chicken

Books:

Reality kinda bites, so I read a lot of escapist fiction, space and swords and magic and the like. Some authors that stand out in my mind are : L.E. Modessit, Michael Crichton, Chuck Palahniuk, Stephen King, Dean Koontz, John Saul, Frank Herbert, John Katzenbach...

Heroes:

I admire people who have innovated, who have taken shit and made it shine, who have climbed up out of their lot in life. If I built a shrine, it would be to the people who invented the Phillips screwdriver, the pop top on soda cans, the drunk bumps that divide lanes of traffic, the Swiss Army Knife, and the Black & Tan
