About Me


CLICK HERE TO GET A FREE MYSPACE LAYOUT

I'm hooked on getting to the gym early at least four days a week, I like working out and keeping fit for my work as a volunteer firefighter. The best weekend includes a hike, jog or a scuba dive in the Monterey bay, a leisurely dinner and maybe watching a dvd.The music I like listening to is somewhat eclectic. I like all kinds of music from Classical (Beethoven is my favorite) to modern. Some of my favorite artists/groups are Tom Petty, Magnetic Fields, the Decemberists, AFI, Sister Hazel, Peter Gabriel, Johnny Clegg, Cowboy Junkies and Evanescence.

My Interests

Scuba diving, EMS, reading, hiking,working out, music, current events.

I'd like to meet:

I’d like to meet people who like to get out and enjoy the outdoors. Who also like to read (even if you never finish a book) and keep up with current events. You don’t need drugs or alcohol in order to have a stimulating conversation. Let’s talk about our last great book, at least the parts you read ;-), where we’ve been hiking, music we’re listening to and fun things we’re contemplating.Maybe we’ll even get together for a hike, a dive or go out dancing.

Music:

I like nearly everything. A smattering of the groups I like are Magnetic fields, the Decemberists, Sinead Lohan, Tom Petty, Murder by death, Low, Coldplay, Tom Waits, Savuka, Amy Mann, Eliott Smith, Damien Rice, Emilliana Torrini, Sister Hazel, the Wallflowers, and Angela McClusky.

Movies:

Casablanca, Harold and Kumar go to White Castle, Batman Begins, Star Wars, V for Vendetta and many others I can't think of right now.

Television:

I don't have cable and mainly watch DVDs. I love to watch the Daily Show when I can.

Books:

Books are an occupational hazard. I enjoy all kinds of genres including some mainstream fiction, science fiction, and books explaining how things work. WWI history and events surrounding it are another area I like to explore. I highly recommend "The Great War and modern memory" by Paul Fussell.

This Christmas...

We all have too much stuff. This year my family has decided on three rules for our gift giving. The gift has to be a re-gift, something we make or something we buy used, not to exceed $20.00. Sounds ...
