About Me

Layout made by waterbaby79
Heh....one of those "who am I in the "Who's-who-of-cyber-what-the-f**k-this-and-that" type things...well, here goes. About to turn 32, although I still act like I'm 12 most of the time, and yet I feel like I'm 80 most days. Got a job, could be going somewhere finally, otherwise I've just wasted the last 12 years of my life. Other than that, life's great! I love to hang out with people, and I organize a monthly pub night for local rennies in the Minneapolis area. Woo! All about renfests, and going to more of them. I generally always have a camera in hand, 'cause that's what I do best. Wear a kilt most days, 'cause I'm a real man...yeah. You should too. Freedom, baby, freedom....So, I work at the MN renfest, and I'm lookin' for others that work/attend/remotely enjoy it. Rennies make the best friends in the world! When I'm not working my booth, I'm wandering the fest grounds with my camera trying to capture a bit of magic that only happens once a year. I'm also the Administrator for renaissancefestival.com....check it out! Best cyber rennie community on the web!Go to www.renaissancefestival.com .... NOW!

Moonlight
You have moonlight eyes. Moonlight is the color of mystery. Your eyes symbolize your ability to see yourself as others see you. You have finesse for letting other people know what you think. You have a soothing and calming ability that you may or may not know about. You have the awesome ability to draw a person's negative energy out and replace it with a positive energy; the world needs more people like you. Some words to describe you: patient, self-controlled, perseverance, insightful, reflective, understanding, serene, and caring. Take the quiz: "What kind of eyes do you have? (with pictures)"

Movies:

Geez, I don't think there's enough room here for my list.......Anything fantasy, sci-fi, comedy, action, drama.....where do I begin? I just like movies, plain and simple. And Anime....ANIME!!!...................LotR trilogy is right there on top, though. So is Serenity. Pirates of the Carribean. Looking forward to Narnia: LWW. And the 4th Harry Potter.
You have a Purple Lightsaber.Purple is associated with wisdom, dignity,
independence, creativity, mystery, and magic.
Purple denotes high spirituality and religious
aspiration. Purple also represents Peacefulness
and Purification. It also has a sense of
intuitive understanding and a feeling of
intimacy with the world.

DRAGON

You are the dragon. A dragon,
in western lore, is a giant lizard with wings.
It usually has the capability to breathe fire.
The dragon symbolizes immense power, physical
strength, and courage. The dragon has also been
a symbol of wisdom and of protection. Dragons
may also appear to be greedy as many a tale
depict them as keepers of vast hordes of
treasure.
