About Me

MYERS-BRIGGS TYPE INDICATOR®: ENTP
I am a geek, pure and simple!! I like to do things that challenge me mentally and physically. I tend to be very easygoing and mellow, but can be VERY (emphasis on VERY) intense and passionate about things I care for. I've found that this makes me somewhat of an enigma to some of the people I meet that aren't quite sure how to read me. With a grain of salt, eh! I am an acquired taste, but one well worth exploring. In a nutshell and in no particular order: I am educated, informed, opinionated, obnoxious, intense, talkative, loud, observant, focused, driven, passionate, dedicated, loyal, caring, and honest to a fault........Trust me, if you want it sugar-coated, buy some C&H! I just want to have FUN in this lifetime....Hey, you only get one life!!!
I like to snowboard A LOT (over 400 hours a season), mountain bike, road bike, golf, and would like to try skydiving again......I live for those moments that words don't do justice. You just have to experience those moments for yourself........Wanna join me?
As to the whole "responsible adult" part, I am a Systems Technician by trade (translated: major computer dork).
Sounds fun, huh? Chat me up for more!!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Women:
Well, I've been on a "dating hiatus" of sorts for awhile, as I have a serious aversion to paying $10-$20 cover to buy 7 ounce drinks for $8.00 apiece in poorly ventilated dance clubs, but since the question has been asked: I'm looking for a smart, fit, attractive, sexy and ever-so-slighty goofy woman that is comfortable in her own skin, open and honest, is open to trying new things and new experiences, but doesn't take herself too seriously (seem to have an issue with that one recently). A woman to stimulate my MIND as well as my body (let's face it: looks get you through the door, but they don't pay the price of admission). I've also been told I'm "a little odd"....Go figure...

Someone to laugh with A LOT!!

Someone who skis/snowboards regularly would be a HUGE plus (although not required), as I am very passionate about that sport.

Men:
Other extreme sports oriented, educated, intelligent, HETERO males that can keep up on the hill, as well as in a heated debate about something other than the merits of dollar PBR's at happy hour!!

To be more specific: PEOPLE WITH A CLUE!!

Support your friendly neighborhood IT professional:

Be a good citizen and contribute to the "Robholio Relief"
(aka "Robholio needs a pint") Fund. It may not improve my job or quality of life, but it'll damn sure make me more entertaining after a few pints!!

Reading and Writing

Not so much the arithmetic part, but I digress. Recently I've been very moved emotionally by a few movies and shows I've seen, which is not at all like me.  Not that the actors were particularly ...

THE Two Life Lessons...(second half)

You know, I'm really surprised that noone answered this one correctly other than my friend Mark.  It is something that many people lack earlier in their lives, but after life slaps them down a n...

First, let me say a tribute to all in the armed forces that currently serve or have served and fallen for our nation's better interests (not necessarily those of its leaders). You have my unwavering s...

Stoked It's an older word from a little bit older generation, but still in common use.  That's more or less the idea of this whole blog.  I just realized that I'm pretty stoked to be 38 year...

A little holiday cheer (and amnesty)......

As the holiday approaches, I've started seeing all of the "joy, happiness, and cheer" oriented mass-marketing everywhere and it got me to thinking about things.  For the purposes of this post, I'...

Excuse Me?

The title of an e-mail response to a comment I'd left, which in hindsight I should've put more thought and consideration into.  Mind you, this was to a close friend and someone who knows me at a ...
