About Me

Mi Vida Loca: I get paid to develop and maintain web pages and web applications, yet this page never gets updated--go figure.

Currently residing in: Hawai'i, on the island of O'ahu. Originally from the mainland though

First thing people notice about me: I am quiet. I don't like to talk much about myself--so, if anyone out there is in dire need of knowing anything else, feel free to send me a message. That's what they're for( just don't ask me any dumb, useless questions)

“When I was young, I prayed to God for a bike. My mother explained to me that God doesn`t work like that - so I stole the bike and prayed for forgiveness. OK, that didn`t really happen but it`s a good example of how you have to work for everything you want, because nobody`s going to just hand it to you; and you also have to watch your back, because there`s always somebody waiting to snatch your bike.” -Anonymous

"The cynic knows the price of everything and the value of nothing." - Oscar Wilde

"Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; un-rewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race." - Calvin Coolidge

"Three thangs that should NEVER be broken: Toys, Promises, and Hearts."

"Telling lies obscures the memory, because you have to remember double: you have to remember the truth and the lie. So while it may be difficult at times, always tell the truth." - Wilson T. Park from Lessons Learned on the Corner in Kalihi

"Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome." - Booker T. Washington

"Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishments." - Jim Rohn

My Interests


Just tryin' not to be a victim of society's trappings. I enjoy learning new things, going to new places, eating new foods, experiencing other cultures etc.

I'd like to meet:

Call it freaky--but I really like long, thin noses on the chicas. I HAVE NO CLUE WHY. I can't rationalize it, but for some reason, I find it alarmingly attractive. Not too big, but any interestingly shaped snout on a girl, does it for me....

**NOTE** I was just playin around, I don't have a wierd nose fetish.

Hey, much love and thanks for taking the time to stop and have a look.. Hopefully you enjoyed your stay at MikeSpace. If not, email me and I will give you your money back....I`ll be scoping out your pages too for sure....I get CRAZY busy sometimes though, but I ALWAYS TRY to write back, so drop me a line...
