I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me


I don't seek to be happy so much as interested.

I always say "please" and "thanks" and I mean it.

The sight of Orion makes me happy. And I finally know why.

There's only one everything and we're all part of that. Act accordingly.

I'm retarded for dogs.

I know saying "retarded" is wrong, but I'm completely retarded for dogs, and there's no better way to say it.

I love to travel, and I love my own bed. Oh, the conundrum.

I have to work with my hands. Have. To.

I love art yet think most of it is utter bullshit.

This American Life (the radio show) is the Best Thing Ever. Right after dogs.

If there was a god, it wouldn't be nearly so petty as most religions make it out to be. God would be a dog. And now I want to say some line about that making life a bitch, but I'm not about to make a joke that dumb.

I *hate* it when people ask me what kind of music I like. I like music that doesn't suck, period, and I'll only know that when I hear it.

Actually, I like some music that sucks.

I make big metal sculptures:

My Interests

..Art, snowboarding, architecture, design, stand up comedy, good people, good stories, shooting pool, motorcycles. Peanut butter. Crunchy freakin' peanut butter. Hell yes.

My sculpture website is here.

I'd like to meet:

People whose friends say "you're fucking amazing." Yeah, those people.
