I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

New job: Operations Manager for the San Antonio Symphony, which basically means I'm in charge of everything relating to the logistics of symphony performances. Yes, I left the glamorous world of full-time freelance cello playing and teaching for a regular day job.

My Interests

Outdoorsy stuff, fishing, motorcycles, Sudoku, crossword puzzles, mowing the lawn

I'd like to meet:

Oh, whoever.

Music:

Everything, truly.

Movies:

Monty Python, Scorsese, Christopher Guest, Matt and Trey, early and late Sam Raimi, Milos Forman, lots more but that's all I can think of. And don't you just totally NOT read those profiles with like a million things over here? Give me a couple of good ones, not every damn movie/book/band ever created. I mean, who doesn't like the Beatles or Bob Marley or the Coen brothers?

Television:

** LOST ** Also most anything on Food Network (except that fraud Emeril) and Speed or ESPN. Mr. Show, Adult Swim (Sealab 2021 and Tim and Eric), Trailer Park Boys - LOOK IT UP. I like House too, and HATE Grey's Anatomy - probably the WORST SHOW EVER. Do yourself a favor and look up Harry Enfield on youtube - watch all the B&W clips.

Books:

Mostly non-fiction, lots of sudoku, news.

Heroes:

Vince Young. Leonard Rose. Kevin Durant. Mozart. Benjamin Franklin. Jimi Hendrix.

I ate the whole thing

Went to a place called "The Lord's Kitchen" yesterday in San Antonio and had the "Lord's Burger," which is one whole pound of beef.  There was lots of grease of course, but that just made it go d...

new shoes

Ok... I just bought a new pair of Chacos.  I never considered myself a "sport sandal" type of guy, but let me tell you, I can't even bring myself to take these off.  I hope I'm never compell...
