Oliver Twist

It's hard finding quality bad people

About Me


I'm a quiet, backgammon-loving lumberjack who loves the simple things in life such as playing backgammon, cutting wood, and playing chinese checkers w/ my friend Rojelio on off-days from my job as an off-shore rig disc jockey.3 things describe who I really am: science-geek, music-lover, and smart-ass. My friends and family mean the world to me and always put them before anything. By day, I work as a Life Science Specialist for my company's Life Sciences division (cool geeks). By night, I play records, have been for a very long time and not stopping anytime soon. Also 1/2 of the dynamic duo you might not know of as Master Plan (but you will, trust me). I have 2 dogs who like to eat, poop, and give me grief but I love 'em to death. I truly subscribe to the "work hard, play hard" mentality. My ultimate goal is to give my beautiful parents mediocre-looking grandkids; I guess the 1st step is to meet the right girl? In the meantime, I will continue to enjoy life and continue to pursue women who are completely out of my league.

My Interests

My friends and family (mean everything to me), USC Football, Weiner Dogs, beatboxes, 1200s, crossfaders, music theory/production, snowboarding, making fun of shirtless meatheads w/ glowsticks, Sea Donkeys, getting the George Jefferson dance down, molecular biology/genetics, medicine, psychology, biomechanics, Chargers football, Trader Joe's giant cashews, ancient civilization history, European architecture, Magritte and Escher's (thanks Steph) works, bacon, martial arts, tattoo art, SPAM (fried to a crisp), cheesy teen movies on hangover days, cheese, boxing, ESPN, the mall, and anybody w/ soul. I'm kinda interested in this girl too:
