I am here for Friends

About Me


Now that the wind called my name
And my star had faded now hardly a glimpse up in the empty space
And the wise one-eyed great father in the sky stilled my flame
For the ones who stood me near
And you few who were me dear
I ask of thee to have no doubts and no fears
For when the great clouds fills the air
And the thunder roars from o, so far away up in the sky
Then for sure you will know that I have reached the joyous hall up high
With my bloodbrothers at side
All sons of father with one eye
We were all born in the land of the blood on ice
And now you all who might hear my song
Brought to you by the northern wind have no fear
Though the night may seem so everlasting and forever dark
There will come a golden dawn
At ends of nights for all yee on whom
Upon the northstar always shines
The vast gates to hall up high
Shall stand open wide and welcome you with all its within
And Oden shall hail us bearers of a pounding hammerheart
The one and only Dr. Metal. Yes, there can be only one.
I am a total metalhead, a pharmacist, and a medical student at Wayne State University School of Medicine in Detroit, Michigan. I also work with Cursed Eternity, the rocking-ist heavy metal band from Novi, Michigan (www.myspace.com/cursedeternity).
I enjoy listening to metal, going to concerts, and discussing the virtues of banging one's head. Someday I'll be able to get back to reviewing.
Good food, good beer, and good friends are extremely important to me.
I love to read. Unfortunately the only things I have had a chance to read lately have been my textbooks and class notes. If I wasn't in medical school, I would probably be a history major.
I wish I had more time to travel. I enjoy taking road trips. I really like getting out in nature by going hiking and camping.

Well, you wonder why I always dress in black, Why you never see bright colors on my back, And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone. Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on. ...
