About Me

"....You Who Crave Danger, and Snicker at Fear,
Will Find Most Agreeable Company Here....."

Me? Just some scruffy surfer looking dude who can't actually surf...
Please don't request me as a friend until you read all this stuff and we've exchanged a few messages. I'm not here collecting names. I don't take any of this .. stuff seriously. Also, I don't arrange my friend's list in any particular order. Unfortunately, some people pay way too much attention to what order they are listed in my friend's list, so I am careful to mix it up as often as I can. Don't look for any fancy HTML nonsense shit either. Other than that, have a great day :)
For now, I'll just say I'm sort of art geek, and a little bit computer nerd, buddhist-like, with a touch of wiccan-like tree-huggin' as well. I'm a computer animator, which means apparently I'm one of those sell-out "artists" that makes money. It's fun; I love doing it. I used to work in NY and L.A., but for now, I'm settled in Florida...
I am the Downhill Tumble and Roll champ, King of the Toad Finders, Captain of the High Altitude Tree Branch Vista Club, second place finisher in the 'Round the Yard Backward Dash, Premier Burper state division, Sodbuster and Worm Scout first order, and Generalissimo of the Mud and Mayhem Society (calvin)
I guess there's really a lot more I could talk about but chances are you wouldn't believe half of it ...
As for the basics, I'm from a little farming town on Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts. Pretty quiet place when the tourists aren't buzzing around. And I make it back every summer to go fishing.
I have more stuff to read at an old Yahoo page, www.geocities.com/ninth_level_dan

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Who would I like to meet?.... Angelina Jolie or Jessica Alba of course. Just as I'm sure most women would like to meet Brad Pitt or someone like that.

I got to meet Masuimi Max at a car show here in Orlando a while back. That was cool. She was unbelievably sweet, and I'd love to see her again. Alas, she is re-married now. But I'm happy for her.

But let's be a little more realistic shall we? I'm not here trolling for anyone. I'm putting the top down on the Jeep and heading to the beach this weekend. If that sounds like fun, and you have your own beach chair, then jump in the seat and come along.

Oh... I also want to meet the Dalai Lama. He looks like he really knows how to laugh.

Free Hugs
