About Me

I'd be a shoe-in, if this place only had a "Nerdy New People" feature.
It's nice being a trainer for an electronics call center. My job consists of playing with expensive toys, and telling people what to do without them actually having to answer to me.

My Interests

My primary pastime is video games, but I've also been known to actually work on my model kits from time to time. Gunplamo!
I've also got a bin full of Transformers and some assorted in-box action figures. There's also a few trading card binders, mostly Pokemon TCG. Does anyone out there have a base set Blastoise, Nidoking, or Poliwrath?
At the moment, another thing taking up many brain cycles is Zelda Classic . Will I ever finish my custom quest?

I'd like to meet:

Einstein would be cool to meet, being the most famous of us wacky smart guy types, but the whole being dead thing is a bit of an inconvenience.
So, I guess girls with big boobies would be a fine alternative.

Music:

Currently on CD in my car:
Def Leppard, Scorpions, Weird Al Yankovic, Guns N Roses, AC-DC, Bon Jovi, Metallica, Ozzy Osbourne, Journey, Queen, Motley Crue, Van Halen, Skid Row, Aerosmith, Styx, Foriegner, Dire Straits, 80's metal compilations, and some game soundtracks.

Movies:

I own UHF, Spider-Man 1&2, and some Gundam movies. The rest of my DVDs are PS2 games.
Movies that I do not own but recommend seeing are Office Space and Rat Race. In general, serious movies really aren't my thing.As a side note, you don't need to understand Final Fantasy VII Advent Children, just watch and enjoy.

Television:

Who needs TV reception with game consoles connected?
My favorite series of video games include Legend of Zelda, Final Fantasy, Mega Man, Chrono, Mana, Pokemon, and Castlevania. For the purposes of conserving bandwidth, this is not an exhaustive list.

Books:

Books are those things with pages and words, right? I did read the first five Harry Potters lately...

Heroes:

I usually call them subs. Ham, cheese, mustard, lettuce and tomato sounds good right about now.
