Interests, like stock bonds and iras? Nope, Good cause talkin about money goes over my head... yeah If I was a superhero, then Math would be my arch nemesis. Since Moving here, I love spending lots of time at the beach. Whether pretending i know how to handle a board, or just sitting on the sand and staring at the sea, any excuse to be on the beach is a good one. Oh yeah, Interests, well I love music, I love writing, I love having fun and hanging out. There it is in a nutshell! Ok, I have to admit that I'm also a total collector nerd. I collect all kinds of weird stuff, from records and posters to old school (mostly Atari) video games and action figures to anything retro, weird yet somehow cool or interesting to me. I love thrift stores, flea markets and swap meets. Like trying to stay sane... not as easy as it would appear to be you know!
.. YOU!!! Ok, I just moved to San Clemente, and I don't know anyone here! So I would like to meet some people nearby, as well as the usual people I describe below... Whoever is out there with a good ear to lend and a mouth with which to share ideas. People who can tolerate the strangeness that is me, and if you talk to me even briefly you'll probably see there is plenty of it to go around. Hey, maybe you lack some oddness in your life, well talk to me and I will direct some at you! (Normal people need not apply) Yeah, hey, feel free to IM me if you have AIM or AOL...

cool, yet another list! First of all, hands down the best TV series ever in history IMO is The Twilight Zone. A close 2nd would be Alfred Hitchcock Presents. Now everything else is pretty evenly, and yes I realize there are some embarrassing choices here (I do have a soft spot for WB dramas and sappy soapy shows.) Cheers, All In The Family, The jeffersons, Futurama, the Simpsons, The O. C., Gilmore Girls, Popular, Smallville, Family Ties, Taxi, Quantum Leap, Wonderfalls, The Munsters, The Addams family, the King Of Queens, king Of The hill, Daria, Bones, House, Prison Break, DS9, Family Guy, Dawson's Creek. I'll leave it at that, I try not to watch TOOO Much TV... Lately, I really like watching football, unfortunatly I dont have a team to root for, but plenty to root against, like the Rams and Raiders... hope they lose!
Well, I dont read nearly as much as I wish I do, but I have plenty of choice books. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series is my tops. I also love Shakesphere and Sherlock Holmes, though I have read nearly enough of those last two. Other Favorites, Animal farm, Lord of The Flies, The Pearl, I love Calvin and Hobbes and The Far Side books. I love reading biographies, most recently Leonard Cohen's and The history of Video Games. I read some magazines, I hate but read rolling stone and entertainment, just so I don feel to disconnected from the world and so I can see what's 'hip' or 'IN'.
Hmmm... this is an interesting one. there are many people I admire and look up to. as far as celebs, there's Leonard Cohen, Jeff Kent, Shane MacGowan, Nick Cave, Tom Waits, Johnny Cash, John Lennon, Woody Harrelson. Historical figures there Martin Luther King jr., Socrates, Plato, George Washington, william shakesphere. as far as people who are actually in my life, my friends and (most) of my family are heroes to me, and I respect and look upto them whenever I need motivation or something to look upto.
