I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Capoeirista. Teacher. Father. This is me. Love me, hate me, whatever me.

My Interests

Capoeira (this is the link for a Nike commercial of what I do ). Life. Kids (three now - Anna, Kiki, and Joaquin). I'm on Wife 2.0 - better software, better interface... hehe

I'd like to meet:

Friends. Old lovers. Everyone who had love for me at one point - I miss not knowing where the people I care about are anymore....."window.open('http://www.shockwave.com/contentPl ay/shockwave.jsp?id=capfighter3&brand=GameShare','Shockw ave','menubar=0,resizable=1,width=775,height=725')" /

Capoeira Fighter 3 World Tournament Demo

Movies:

The Evil Dead series,The Haunting,the whole Star Wars project,the entire Star Trek series,Bedazzled (the new one, silly),Constantine,Hellboy,Texas Chainsaw Massacre (Hell yeah! Don't mess with Texas!),

Television:

Economists call the television a 'personal income reducer.' Did you know you lose about five IQ points vegging in front of the TV? So hell no, I can read a book! Truth to be told, I liked TV a lot, but its been two glorious years with no cable now, and I don't miss it.

Books:

Anything Sci-Fi. Swords and magic themes work, too. Generally, I'll read anything once. Hell, I even read a David Icke book, and he's touring the outer reaches of the universe...

Heroes:

Ghandi. Buddha. Jesus. Malcolm X. Cesar Chavez (No uvas!). Bob Marley. Mestre Jelon Vieira.

why some things must fizzle instead of a spectacular death

No, Nooney and I are not breaking up.  Lord only knows, with as much crap as we have gone through in three years, our relationship surviving has been a blessing from God more than anything. ...

not really feeling it...

I think something is going on here.  I'm not exactly sure, but somehow I feel like things are off-kilter.  For example...I went to my friend Montanha's college capoeira class.  I like g...

Are we gonna let the elevator break us down?
