Let me be frank.

About Me

I like being me. Super nerdy on the outside with a hard geek center.

My Interests

The little lady, Ford motor vehicles, old school air cooled VWs, sufficiently advanced technologies, proving others wrong, rockin' out, hangin' out, lack of pants, and sleeping in.

I'd like to meet:

John Moses Browning, Richard Feynman, Andrew Grove, and Thomas Paine.

Music:

Fu Manchu, OAR, Lenny Kravitz, Jethro Tull, Foreigner, Dire Straits, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Cream, Eric Clapton, Futuristic Sex Robotz, Los Straitjackets, Orange 9mm, Gene Vincent, Muddy Waters, Neil Young, Primus, Rage Against The Machine, The Crackerjacks, Seven Mary Three, NAS, Sublime, Stray Cats, The Beatles, The Presidents of The United States, Tool, Webb Wilder, Alice in Chains, Beastie Boys, Bob Marley, Bob Dylan, Chevelle, CKY, and a lot more I can't remember.

Movies:

Condorman

Television:

Food Network, Discovery Channel

Books:

The Bible. I'm not much of a reader. Although from time to time I do read about Statistical Process Control and Design of Experiments

Heroes:

HA! I thought it was "heroes and ovaries" but it's really "ejidos and ovaries". From Wind Below you sluts, you should know that.It's also a stupid TV show. Not that I've watched it but the previews are enough to gag a poo-fly.

My Blog

Ramblings about the election and voting

As a self proclaimed libertarian I'm not sure what to think about this election. I had to do a write-in for the libertarian endorsed candidate for Governor.  There's no mention of her anywhere in...

In regards to the upcoming election

Don't keep doing the same thing over and over and over and expect different results, that's just ignorant.Interpret that as you see fit.  That is all.

Filthy skunks

A skunk exploded outside of our house and man does it reek.  This must be the 4th or 5th time this has happened.  The first time the smell was so potent it woke me up, and boy howdy let me t...

Where I stand politically

Some people have said I'm a bit of an odd duck.  I guess the fact I don't eat birds or mammals doesn't mix well with my gun ownership.  Somehow I came across this little quiz which, in my op...

And of course there are parts missing

I bought an electric radiator fan conversion for my truck, because I'm part pimp, and it's missing all the required wires.  I was looking forward to installing that this weekend.  And there ...
