I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I am E. I'm a technically minded person with a penchant for the interestingly obscure. I often find my technogeek wrestling with my open-minded academic. I enjoy hanging out with friends whatever the intermediary activity may be. However when I'm choosing the entertainment, I love a good pub with new and interesting brews. I love anything to do with cars. I've been in the garage since I was five years old and I still enjoy it. That's what led me to my profession as an engineer. I'm a big fan of music in general as well as playing and singing - which is an odd juxtaposition considering my chosen field. I've been told that an outgoing engineer looks at YOUR shoes rather than his own when he talks to you. I seek to break that stereotype.

My Interests

Cars, electronics, any mechanical or electronic contraption, music (listening and playing), anything that makes me think.

I'd like to meet:

Interesting people. People with different ideas, but similar values. People who make me think. People who are fun to be around.

Books:

Engineering Fundamentals of the Internal Combustion Engine by Willard Pulkrabek, Maximum Boost by Corky Bell

Another item on my list of things I've learned not to do ...

So I went to the casinos in Mississippi this weekend for a friend of mine's birthday. I've never been real keen on gambling because I have this little problem with giving someone money for nothing in ...
