I am here for Friends

About Me


I enjoy music, movies, travel, politics and other stuff. A few former co-workers and I used to run SexToyPinata.com (its goal was to sell, well, piatas with, let's just say "various adult oriented items" in them) - but, well, it's a better idea than a business.
As a skinny guy, I formerly worked at Jenny Craig doing web site stuff. In a past life I rode the dot-com wave at MP3.com - yep, had a masseuse, on-site gym, rock climbing wall and everything. I wonder why they went under?
But I'm much more than a job hopping Gen Xer. I'm also a adrenaline craving skydiver but haven't done that in 3 years.
My Political Profile:
Overall: 40% Conservative, 60% Liberal
Social Issues: 25% Conservative, 75% Liberal
Personal Responsibility: 25% Conservative, 75% Liberal
Fiscal Issues: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal
Ethics: 0% Conservative, 100% Liberal
Defense and Crime: 100% Conservative, 0% Liberal

Catch A Predator

Now, I'm not a proud viewer of NBC when it comes to their "Catch a Predator" shows.  Basically I think people who get caught on that show are stupid and go to jail to pay the stupidity tax.But it...

Lord of the Flies

The last few days have been stinky in my house.  Now, all this time, I thought it was the cheese I brought back from Amsterdam.  Tonight, I get home and think 'good god, what is that smel...

Heading to Europe

The Air France experience wasn't exactly all the glamour that it was lead up to be.  It was kind of strange though being on a flight from the ..US.. to the ....UK.... (both essentially English sp...

Self Esteem

Self esteem is a funny thing.  Sure, we all have moments where we think we're too fat, too ugly, not smart enough, not talented enough.  But in general I think typically most people have a d...

Carving Anxiety

On my Dad's side of the family, carving the turkey is production.  They bring the turkey from the oven to the table with 20 family people staring at you.  You carve in and slice up turkey fo...

Ouija Boards

Usually as I go to bed, I'll listen to Coast to Coast.  Last night, they were doing "ghost to ghost" - which is one of my favourites.  I LOVE it when they talk about ghost stories and funky ...
