About Me


What I have to say: I know that I hung from that windswept tree
Nine whole nights, pierced by a spear,
A Sacrifice to Odin, offering myself to myself,
Upon that tree sprung from roots who draw
From a place no man may know.Neither was mead horn upheld, nor bread handed me.
I gazed into those worlds below,
I cried aloud.
Seizing the runes, I consumed them wailing
And thus fell back to the Earth.From Mimir, son of the earthen giant Bolthorn,
Nine mighty songs I mastered.
One draught of the sweetest mead did I taste
Poured forth eternally from the cauldron Odrorir.Then my thoughts began to grow, to gain insight,
I grew full and fleshed in wisdom.
One word lead to a verse, one verse to a poem,
One poem lead to a song, one song to another. --- From The Poetic Edda, adapted by me.I am a heathen and damn proud of it. Keep your God to yourself or I'll throw a spear thru your head.
I am a sad viking caught in a christo-republic-istary world. I want a farm with goats, and a place to ferment stuff. I want Bush to go away.
If you don't know me by now, then it proves that you were never really paying attention all along.

What kind of sushi are you?
Spicy Tuna
A little on the normal side, but with some kick. You might take after your parents, but you have your own originality.

Brought to you by YouThink.com quizzes and personality tests. What have I been up to? Well, I spent some time brewing beer in Manhattan, then I went on tour with some musicals around the US and Japan, came home, met a girl, fell for girl's enchanting spell, moved to eastern CT and worked odd jobs, decided to move to PA with same girl, then to marry her, worked more stagehand stuff, traveled some more, got married, and now have moved to the Mountains of PA to live out the rest of my days in peace and tranquility. Did I leave anything out?

I am worth $2,524,780 on HumanForSale.com My score on The Viking Test :
Hirdsmen
(You scored 91% Berserker, 91% War Chief)
You are a Viking Hirdsman, the dark ages would have been open to success for you. A true beliver in the gods and Valhalla nothing can be more glorious to you then a death in battle. and many battles have you fought. Many have you slain to gain your status. you will fight for whomever and where ever, as long as the price is right. Kings would have sought you out to serve in their personal guard. the life of a mercinary would have suited you well. In an age of warriors you would have fit in well Weather in the feild of battle on a longship or in the mead hall, you truely possess the Viking spirit.
