What kind of Pirate are you?
created with QuizFarm.comI live in Madison, WI with my fiancee, Katie. (She's the cute one on my left.) I've been working at Electronic Theatre Controls since January. To give an example of how great this job is, the other day our CEO pushed a cart loaded with ice cream bars around the facility making sure that all several hundred employees got a treat on the first really warm day in Madison this year.
After 8 years of setting up, assisting, supporting, and DJ-ing karaoke shows, I am hanging up the mic - well as a side job anyway. I may occasionally work a show here and there, but spending my weekends behind a karaoke machine has made it surprisingly tough to meet new people and make new friends since we moved to Madison, and frankly the headaches just aren't worth the "money" any more.
Every now and then I get to hit the release button on my sarcasm pressure cooker in the form of the odd stand up comedy gig. I had the chance to MC a show for the first time recently and hopefully that trend will continue. I don't want to make a career of comedy, but it is a fun, fun, fun way to spend an evening every month or two.
I am either a guy who likes booze and has a sci-fi problem or a huge geek who likes to drink. Probably both. I dabble in the SCA and a neat little group called Barfleet, both of which allow me to exercise those aspects of my personality.
I cannot fully describe myself without a spending some electrons on my magnificent bride-to-be Katie. She has a wide array of talents and skills and obvious fantastic looks, but beyond that she is the most strikingly caring person I have ever met. Her capacity for compassion and concern for others is astounding and has won my heart and my respect. I could not ask for a better companion, partner, best friend and lover. There is no one I would rather cuddle with on the couch and watch SG-1 with.
You're a Speak & Spell!! You nerd, you. Just
because you were disguised as a toy doesn't
mean you weren't educational, you sneaky
bastard.
