About Me

My name is Diane, and I'm an intelligent loner who thrives on all things Greg Proops, Ryan Stiles (or anything to do with those fabulous Whose Line men), and Eric Idle. I am a professional web designer and run numerous websites such as Idleized Heaven , Ryan Stiles Net , Greg Proops Net , and Passionate Dreams . I am also the proud, loyal webmistress of Outlaw Radio . My professional business website is SOLIAS . (I'm looking for any potential hirings!) I hope to one day become a full-fledged graphic designer and published author. I spend the majority of my time either designing and building my sites, writing, or drawing. For athletics I enjoy swimming, bowling, and archery, and a few of my other interests include watching comedies and going to comedy shows, listening to Outlaw Radio, playing a few select video games, and going to theme parks.
I am a sophomore at Arizona State University and am currently a Design Studies major with an emphasis on Graphic Design. I moved to Arizona in July of 2007, and am loving it here so far, save for the blistering heat. I had lived in Utah for the majority of my life (most unfortunately), though I am originally from southern California. I graduated from my high school as a straight 4.0 student and was ranked #1 in my class.

My Interests

Archery, Writing, Drawing, Designing, Creating Websites, Bowling, Animals, Spamalot, Greg Proops, Ryan Stiles, Eric Idle, Whose Line Is It Anyway?, Outlaw Radio, The Drew Carey Show, Doctor Who, David Tennant, Monty Python, Fantasy, Blogging, Swimming, The Sims 2, Gaming, Comedy, Improv, Directing, Acting, The SCA, Sword Fighting, The Internet, Science Fiction, Ancient History & Mythology (Especially Greek and Egyptian), Animation

I'd like to meet:

I'd absolutely love a chance to be able to see Eric Idle once more. He was a very sweet man, not to mention outright hilarious, and I'd really enjoy being able to watch him perform again, if ever given the oppurtunity.

My favorite people in the world are the Whose Line / Green Screen show crew - Greg Proops and Ryan Stiles in particular - and my ultimate, favorite hobby is to travel and see them perform, as I never have my fill of their astounding hilarity and wit. I have had the pleasure of being at the following performances:

- An Evening Of Colin And Brad, Salt Lake City, October 2006
- Drew Carey's Improv AllStars, Las Vegas, February 2007 (2 Shows, 2 Nights)
- Greg Proops' Standup, Tempe, September 2007 (3 Shows, 3 Nights)
- Whose Live Anyway?, Scottsdale, October 2007
- Whose Live Anyway?, Tucson, October 2007
- Greg Proops' Standup, San Francisco, December 30th - 31st 2007 (2 Shows, 2 Nights)
- An Evening Of Colin And Brad, Phoenix, January 2008
- Drew Carey's Improv AllStars, Las Vegas, February 2008 (4 Shows, 2 Nights)
- Whose Live Anyway?, Portland, June 28th 2008
- Whose Live Anyway?, Ada, Ohio, September 20th 2008
- Whose Live Anyway?, Henderson, Nevada, October 11th 2008
The next shows planned are Improv Allstars 2009 In Vegas In February.

Another dream/goal of mine that I actually achieved was to go to the world's best radio show, Outlaw Radio, and meet Magic Matt Alan and the Demons of Decadence. I listen to on a weekly basis, and am their proud P1 fan! I am also their very proud webmistress, and a friend. The Outlaw gang is my gang! I hope to return to Outlaw one day in the near future!

I also certainly wouldn't say 'no' to Alan Rickman, John Cleese, or David Tennant.

Music:

Anything and everything save for rap and screamo. I particularly love oldies, especially from the 60's and 70's. I also enjoy comedy albums, mainly from Greg Proops and Eric Idle. Some of my favorite genres are rock, punk, dance, old school pop, (some) techno, and again, oldies...

Movies:

Splitting Heirs, Missing Pieces, Hot Shots!, Hairspray, The Chronicles Of Narnia, The Princess Diaries, The 10th Kingdom, Indiana Jones, Star Wars (the originals), The Lion King, Nuns On The Run, Anything With Eric Idle, Ryan Stiles, Greg Proops, David Tennant, Or Alan Rickman. In a more generalized sense, I enjoy comedy, fantasy, and action adventure.

Television:

I very, very rarely watch television, at all - almost to the point of 'never'. I enjoy Whose Line Is It Anyway?, The Green Screen Show, The Drew Carey Show, Doctor Who, Monty Python's Flying Circus, Suddenly Susan, Lost, Two And A Half Men, Fawlty Towers, and Ellen DeGeneres.

Books:

The Road To Mars, The Greedy Bastard Tour Diary, His Dark Materials, The Lost Years Of Merlin, Harry Potter, The Great Tree Of Avalon, the Ender novels, The Chronicles Of Narnia, the Arthurian legends, mythology, fantasy, science fiction, comedies, drama, a very narrow range of fanfiction.

Heroes:

I greatly and thoroughly admire (if not idolize) Greg Proops, Ryan Stiles, and Eric Idle.

My Blog

Time For Some Pre-Spring Cleaning

So, I decided that my MySpace needed a major update, so I gave it one.  I made a spiffy layout (background pic not mine though) and it now looks MUCH better.  I also added a more recent pic ...
