I am here for Friends

About Me

About me? Hmmm, not much to tell. I'm a regular guy and an engineer. I like cars, hockey, martial arts, anything outdoors and I have an old dog named Hal. Normal guy stuff mostly. I can cook and so far no one has died as a direct result, as far as I know. That's good, right? I do some writing from time to time as well. You can find it on my blog or My Page .

I'm only serious when required...

Santa Cruz, California:

Hi! Here's pictures of where I live. It's heaven on earth.

My Interests

Taekwondo, Hockey, planetary sciences, aircraft and spacecraft technology, carpentry, building computers, cars, biking. Meeting new and interesting people.

Maybe we could try a little harder to care for our home.

My sport, Tae Kwon Do:

My Team, The San Jose Sharks:

I love my limited production Mach 1.

Me and my Jeep XJ.

Pamela is such a very big interest of mine. You're an amazing woman, a wonderful mom and I respect that so much.

I so want one of these:

I'd like to meet:

Susanne you're such a beautiful girl. You take good care of me.

I want to meet Pamela Anderson. That pleasure would be mine. Maybe someday...

Music:

Most everything. Loud rock is my thing.

Television:

The Science Channel, National Geographic or MSNBC. The Sci-Fi Channel, The History Channel and of course ESPN... I'm a guy. I like to rent DVDs so my intelligence isn't constantly insulted by stupid advertisements. Oh and HOCKEY.

Books:

I read a lot of stuff but mostly books on martial arts, science fiction and various magazines. The Art Of Striking is pretty interesting and I’ve spent quite a bit of time reading through that.

Heroes:

Steve McQueen

James T. Kirk

Andrew Jackson

Jet Li

James Dolittle
