Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young

About Me

My name is Chris Maddocks. I live in Santa Cruz California, and wouldn't have it any other way. I love to party, dance, and generally have a good time. I am a very caring individual, if you need help, come to me. If you need advice, come to me. I'll do everything in my power to make everything right. Which is not to say that I don't have a mischievous side. I love to put people in uncomfortable situations just to see how they will react. I have no sense of shame, and I don't get embarassed. I've already said more than I meant to. If you want to know more, talk to me. By the way, you know all of those links and advertisments that infest your myspace profile? I can get rid of them in a snap. If you want to know how to do that shit, give me a call. I'll set you up.

My Interests

I'm a BIG fan of bonfires, red wine, and romance. I like the occasional drink, and my greatest joy in life is being on stage. I enjoy travelling, and learning foriegn languages and about foriegn cultures.

Bare feet, mud between my toes, skating, 420, smoking, drinking, vintage everything , PINK FLOYD, HENDRIX, sunshine, confidence... And a whole lot more...

I'd like to meet:

I would like to meet someone whose life parallels mine, at least for a time. I'm not talking about True Love... I dont't believe in that. I believe in love, but not in all-encompasing, blinding love. I would like to meet someone adventurous. Someone to hold when the night is quiet, and my thoughts so loud.
Calvin and Hobbes will always have a very special place in my heart.

Television:

Here is a secret. Learn to exploit this truth and use it wisely. People will believe anything, either because the want it to be true, or because they're afraid that it might be true.

Books:

"I like to think of fire held in a man's hand. Fire, a dangerous force, tamed at his fingertips. I often wonder about the hours when a man sits alone, watching the smoke of a cigarette, thinking. I wonder what great things have come from such hours. When a man thinks, there is a spot of fire alive in his mind--and it is proper that he should have the burning point of a cigarette as his one expression." -Atlas ShruggedLike as the waves make towards the pebbled shore, So do our minutes hasten to their end; Each changing place with that which goes before, In sequent toil all forwards do contend. Nativity, once in the main of light, Crawls to maturity, wherewith being crown'd, Crooked elipses 'gainst his glory fight, And Time that gave doth now his gift confound. Time doth transfix the flourish set on youth And delves the parallels in beauty's brow, Feeds on the rarities of nature's truth, And nothing stands but for his scythe to mow: And yet to times in hope my verse shall stand, Praising thy worth, despite his cruel hand.

Heroes:

This man was a hero. But they, they were gods.

Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or Endothermic (absorbs heat)?

The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington engineering mid-term. The answer was so "profound" that the Professor shared it with colleagues, and the sharing obviously hasn'...

If you are searching...

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and...
