About Me

I am a Tetris master.
I love Creedence Clearwater Revival.
I think the SNES was the pinnacle of video gaming.
I'm a film elitist, except in the case of Independence Day, which is just awesome.
I think girls who play video games are totally hot.
I like writing (and reading).
My current career choices are cartoonist, foreign policy analyst, ninja turtle.
I am an Eagle Scout.
I love Ben Folds Five.
I don't get enough sleep.
I have read the following books in a single day:
Ender's Game
The Great Gatsby
Sphere
Brave New World

I have read the following books more than twice:
Ender's Game
Pride and Prejudice
Neuromancer
The Fellowship of the Ring
The Two Towers

I'm disorganized.
I hate lettuce.
I know more about Star Wars than you could ever hope to and I'm not ashamed of that.
I often find socially awkward situations unbearably hilarious.
95% of what I say is in some way a joke or otherwise not serious.
The other 5% is probably right-wing propaganda.
I am human and I need to be loved.
I'm not good at responding when strangers insult me. I usually just get confused.
My favorite aliens from Star Trek are the Romulans.
I prefer to reduce as many of life's complexities as possible into one big joke.
I wrote all this in the Spring of '06. I thought it would warrant updating at some point, but so far it doesn't. I just drink more now, and I've forgotten what HTML I knew.

My Interests

1980s cartoons, gyro sandwiches, techno versions of classical music, the orignal NES, freestyle walking, robots, robotic combat, jetpacks, climbing (on anything), hiking/backpacking trips, mountains, lakes, periods of time that don't involve school, writing, any kind of skiing, and spring (the season).

My Blog

oh my my. oh hell yes.

I'm a painfully indecisive person. I believe it comes from the fact that, deep inside, I have absolutely no idea what I want out of life, my personal relationships, or even day-to-day affairs such as...
