About Me

I like to breathe and eat and sleep and drink. Especially the breathing thing - that's fun.

I'm ¼ robot, ¼ insect and ½ ninja. That makes me 100% cool and twice as ¡caliente! Okay, so the fact that I like math jokes and work with computers marks me as a NERD³. I can't help it. That just how I was raised.

I've lived in SoCal all my life - at least all that I can remember. There were some blackout periods there, but unless they involved alien abduction and/or time travel, I'm pretty sure I've lived in SoCal all my life.

My Interests

I like the Lakers , Lakers , Lakers , and Lakers .

I'm always looking for good vacation spots. So if you know any, let me know.

I'd like to meet:

people. people who need people. (cue the music)

Music:

I usually listen to INDIE 103.1 . Listen Live .
I'm loving the new RHCP album.
Gomez, Clap Your Hands and Say Yeah, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Ima Robot, Morningwood, Cobra Starship ...

Movies:

So many bad movies, so little interest.
So let's step into the Wayback Machine.
All-time favorite movie: Lawrence of Arabia
Runners-up: Star Wars: EP5 & EP4
Favorite comedies: Office Space, Airplane, Ghostbusters, Caddyshack, Eddie Murphy: Delirious
Favorite action/sci-fi: Alien, Aliens, Terminator 2
Worst movies I ever saw in the theatre: Cyborg, Black Mask. I won't name names, but the people who picked these "films" are forever on my S* list when it comes to picking movies.

Hmmm. Thinking about going to see Snakes on a Plane. Could I be mistaken? Let's hope not. But I was brave enough to watch Revenge of the Sith.

Television:

I like a lot of shows, but there are only two that I can't miss - Battlestar Galactica and 24. Man, I miss Arrested Development.
I'm definitely a sci-fi/action fan.
I still need Tivo. Anybody got a spare?

Books:

More technical books than I care to think about. I thought I was done with studying after college. These books are so dry, my hands are chapped.

Reading is FUNdamental.

Heroes:

"Dance Like a Monkey" - New York Dolls

Yes, monkeys are my heroes.

The second cut is the deepest

So I had my excision today. That is, the doctor removed the remainder of my mole. I got 5 stitches, a giant patch on my head, a prescription for antibiotics and hole in my wallet where $89.98 used to ...
