I am here for Friends

About Me

I am just the regular guy, you know the type... super nerd/backpacker/motorcyclist... at least i think thats what one would consider regular, but don't blame me I was raised by hippies

My Interests

Motorcycles; movies; music; munitions; mastication--that should do it for the m's now how about other letters. Backpacking; bowling(though not very good); baseball; beer; bratwurst; boobies--guess that sums me up in a nut shell

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who would like to bow down to my lack of knowledge of how stuff works... okay mabey not, but I would like to meet any current super star of math and physics, anyone who would tell my that my theory is sound and my math is solid, those are the people I would like to meet.

Music:

anything but country. It makes my ears bleed

Movies:

I just like film no real favorites, well, thats not totally true I'm a huge fan of anything that View Askew produces, but otherwide just a fan of anything.

Television:

LOST!!!!!!, not just because it's the only thing I get to watch anymore

Books:

I love to read, especially Douglas Adams, and anythin about Physics and Chemistry.

Heroes:

Me... the best hero in you're life is you, all others should be fans of you.
