I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I really don't check this site very often, so if you want to get in touch with me or find out what's happening in my world, please visit the Chattanooga Message Forum .
Former radio disc jockey and talk show host, current musician. Pays bills with techie ISP job building websites and developing marketing plans. Regular guest at science-fiction conventions around the country as a way to keep my head on crooked.
Hobbies include photography, collecting speeding tickets, wearing a kilt to Wal-Mart, playing poker in Vegas as often as possible, and seeing how long it will take for that thing in the Tupperware container in the back of the fridge to gain sentience and try to take over the kitchen.
If you need to know anything more, just ask. I'll answer (just about) any question. Just about...

My Interests

Nearly everything. Seriously. I'm one of those guys that in interested in just about everything. If I haven't done it yet, I likely am planning to sometime soon.

I'd like to meet:


Anyone who shares any of my interests. Not looking for anything (or anyone) in particular, I'm just a friendly person by nature.

Music:

Rock, Pop, Hip-Hop, Country, Oldies, Classical - basically everything.

Movies:

Action flicks and big "event" movies are my bag, man.

Television:

Favorite shows: Lost, American Idol, Law & Order: SVU, CSI Las Vegas and New York, Bones, 24, House, Numbers, ER, Heroes, Jericho, The Closer and Rescue Me. I give my TiVo a real workout.

Books:

Just about anything science fiction. I'd list all my favorite authors, but I think there's a space limit here.

Heroes:

My mother.

Nothing to report on... yet

Something may be in the works that would make for some major changes in my life. Actually, several somethings. If even one of them pan out, it's going to make 2008 very different for me. In a good wa...

Getting ready for Halloween

One of the nice things about being a sci-fi geek is that I can wear ridiculous costumes many times throughout the year, whereas most "mundanes" only have Halloween to look forward to for such fun. Tha...

Yeah yeah, I know... I am a slacker

It's not so much that I've forgotten about MySpace, it's just that I have so little free time these days.  A lot of my online time is taken up with my new duties as an Admin for Fark.Com, one of ...
