I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me


I am a hedonist with restraint. I love food, music, and close friends. I scuba dive and program computers for a living. I have a tendency to pick friends carefully and keep them for a long time. I can't stand irresponsible people. If you call yourself a Goth, Prep, hippie, republican, democrat, feminist, masculist, or any other social moniker you already bore me. I am an artist and an engineer. I play music (badly) and I build electrinic components as a hobby. I am a good cook. I am friends with my mother and she is a strange one. I brew beer and mead and I like people to tell me it's grande. I refuse to hate but I am not opposed to violence. I think that most people have a long way to go before they realize their own potential. I do not recognize everyone's potential. I prefer natural to artificial. I have waffled between herbivore and omnivore since I was 2. I have never been a vegetarian for any political reason and people who are I find arid.
I am an introvert but most poeple don't know what that means or assume that I am shy or quiet.I mostly create. I make beer, mead, fine food, wine, computer applications, music, electronics, and anything else that strikes my fancy. People who need to be taught to create are fundementally lacking. People who create and do not apologize for who they are are golden to me.
WhatI do not like in people. I hate people who are just like everyone else. Individuality is attractive. Actingfreaking to garner attention is right out though. People who can't tell the difference are probably the freaks or the norms so leave me alone.I like to drink and sometimes get drunk. I like to scream at times, but only when I feel like it and other people are keen on it too. I like to enjoy time with my friends at a rather high energy level. I like to sit and talk as well. I like to watch the water from the shore, and I like to walk in the woods alone. I like to walk inthe woods with other people if they are wanting walk for a while and do not mind frequent distractions.I feel alone in public and I feel at ease with close friends. I can do many things at once and I enjoy that. My hobbies are varied and so are my skills. I am a bad painter and often a good writer. I am tone deaf but I practice music from time to time. I love hand drums, but I am not very good at that. I once was but I sobered up.I do not like people who tell me how to live my life but I am interested in how they live thiers. I want to know people, good and bad. I may or may not like you but I will always want to know a little more if you are near me. I like the taste of minds. I talk about myself sometimes, I rarely talk about others. I wear my heart on my sleeve but not always.
Small minds discuss other people
Average minds discuss events
Great minds discuss ideas.
Great minds need only apply.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

A friend that can create and is not offended by much. I would like to find a person who can discuss philosophy and is not aware of what is on television. I like to associate myself with people that are not likely to go to jail. I mostly like people who are intelligent and open minded. This is more rare than most would think. I like people who are not offended by much but to not feel compelled to offend others.I want to meet people that talk about ideas. Philosophy, political theories, cultural differences, history of religions, anthropology, history, linguistics, art, brewing, how the mind works, or any other act of creation.

My favorite Poem

I remember your first smile. Meanwhile, it started raining. He had become corrupted by a momentary recollection. I remember your first step and the moon remembers too. She smiled, and he took out his...

Rain

It started to rain today. It rains everyday. I love to sit and listen to the patter of the rain outside. The bursts of lightning, so close that thunder refuses to echo. The sound of the cold rain enve...
