Something clever this way comes

About Me

I am finally out of the Navy and back in Colorado. Originally from a little town called Durango, but just bought a place up in Lafayette. Taking life easy for the time being, recovering from 6 years of hell. I like spaghetti, and I love chicken. I try not to take anything too seriously, especially myself at times. Visiting old friends is always rewarding and gives me an idea of how I have come along in this crazy world.

My Interests

I am always willing to try new things or restart old hobbies. The only disadvantage to this philosophy is that there are a lot of things to do and a lot of things that I have done. The things I do enjoy now are: Partying, clubbing, flying, guitar, BBQing, movies, frisbee, computer, and climbing.

I'd like to meet:

Everyday I realize that there are so many more people to meet in this world. I take every opportunity I can to meet as many people as possible. Famous people? I would love to meet Burt Rutan and maybe Richard Branson....genius both financial and scientific. Of course it would always be pretty neat to meet the people who built Stonehenge I guess.

Music:

I grew up a classic rock fan, and evolved into a fan of most rock. Some of my Favorite bands:
Tool, A Perfect Circle, Chevelle, Breaking Benjamin, Jack Johnson, HIM, Modest Mouse, Dave Matthews, Alan Paron's Project, Collective Soul, Blue Man Group, Pink Floyd, Godsmack, NIN, Eric Clapton, Creed, Gavin Degraw, Metallica, Pearl Jam, Disturbed, The Eagles, Sevendust, BT, Guns & Roses, Velvet Revolver, Coheed & Cambria, ZZ Top, Dire Straits, Jethro Tull, Led Zeppelin, Live, Men at Work, INXS, The Police, Sting, RHCP, and Dead Can Dance.
I also enjoy varios techno: House, Drum and Bass, DJ Tiesto, DJ Keoki, Louie Devito, Bad Boy Bill, Richard Humpty Vision, and Tangerine Dream.

Movies:

I like a lot of epic movies as well as many comedies and dramas. Some of the movies I enjoy the most are: Braveheart, LOVE Boondock Saints, Serenity, Lord of the Rings, Sin City, Office Space, A Beautiful Mind, Kevin Smith movies, Gotta love Dracula, Gladiator, 2001: A Space Oddysey, Blade Runner, Heat, The Big Lebowski, Kill Bill, Dark City.....etc

Television:

I don't follow TV that much, but I do manage to catch a few episodes of the following....or just buy it when it comes out on DVD: Lost, Battlestar Galactica, Alias, Firefly (which should have never been cancelled).

Books:

I read a wide range of books, too many to list...I just enjoy reading.

Heroes:

Ben Jones, Josh Top.
