About Me

I try to be witty and fun. I'm have heard that nobody likes a smart ass, but I never believed in that. I spend many long hours by myself with me and I make "me" laugh regularly. Guess I'm kinda tested and self approved like that. I've had lots of time for self reflection. I find that I am good company.

My Interests

I like cool stuff like rat-rods, sailboats, & guitars. I collect switchblade knives and reciently acquired a taste for absinthe. I like to laugh but it is better to laugh with someone than at them. I love my little girls (7&8) and it is great to see things as a child again through their eyes (allthough I have never completely grown up myself).

I'd like to meet:

Wannabe daredevills and real life everyday cartoon characters.

Music:

Blues is my favorite, but I have been liking alt. rock & punk lately too.

Movies:

I can't remember the last time I saw a movie. Real life can be so much more interesting!

Television:

Don't really do T.V. I can't even remember the last time that I did.

Books:

"South- The Endurance Expedition" by Sir Ernest Shackleton. The greatest non-fiction survival story of all times to the best of my knowledge. Things kept going from bad to worse & they all survived.

Heroes:

Tony the Tiger is GRRRREAT! (even if his cereal sucks) Popeye inspires me and is the reason that I eat spinich. Anyone who can make a nothing to do situation into fun.
