How do you measure a mans worth when his family and friends are priceless? It is because of this tha

About Me

I always hate these, like you can sum up your life in a few sentences under pressure. I am a 30 soon to be 31 year old man in the prime of my life =). I am at that time in my life where you begin saying things like "If I only knew then what I knew now". My whole life I thought I wanted to be a computer geek and always detested salesmen, and what do I end up being great at? I spent 5 years at a desk programming and testing half the time, and the other half traveling the world. Sound glamorous? Not so much. I've spent the last 5 years in retail and have loved it and hated it at different times, but found that I like being around people much more than a desk and a mouse all day. I take bad stores and make them great, just call me Mr. Fixit. I love comics and when it comes to that I will never grow up, I have full color comic tattoos all over my arms and plan to add more to the canvas someday.

My Interests

Baseball, Comics, Movies, Books, Family, Traveling, working out, console gaming (but a recent WOW addict) and a bit of a workaholic

I'd like to meet:

Old, misplaced friends, and maybe make a few new ones.View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment

Music:

My taste is pretty broad but I always come back to Classic Rock and it's sad because those stations are starting to play the stuff from when I was a kid. My employees and I love to create an upbeat store environment around music, we had a movie moment when two of us were singing along to a song on the radio while a couple of customers were dancing and singling while waiting in line =)

Movies:

Way to many to list, my collection alone is several hundred, A few would be Shawshank Redemption, Superman The Movie, Life as a House, Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, Batman Begins, Indiana Jones, and now Iron Man!

Television:

Smallville, 24, Lost, Greys Anatomy, CSI: NY and Las Vegas, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, X-Files, Angel, Reaper, Bones, Supernatural

Books:

Reading to me is like an addiction, it calms me and takes me to places and times I can only reach in my mind. I have read pretty much everything by Stephen King, Tom Clancy, Jeffery Deaver, and many more. I also enjoy classics such as Homer, Mary Shelly, H.G. Wells and the list goes on and on. If I don't have a book or two near me or available at all times I get a little antsy =)

Heroes:
