Let Me Tell You What I Ain't

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm one tall, red-headed crazy dude... get to know me and you'll know that's true. I live for fun, know how to have a good time and love laughing at myself and others. Life's too short to take things too seriously. I'm a recent Civil Engineering graduate of Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, and now work for a Structural Engineering firm in downtown San Francisco. I love music, parties, good food and drink, and making good memories with good friends.

My Interests

I love traveling... to places that are new and exciting to me, and normal life for the people who live there. It's amazing to travel to other countries and find life sprawling more abundantly than it is back home... parts of the world that sleep while you work and work while you sleep. Last year alone, I was fortunate to travel to Las Vegas, New York City, Boston, Rhode Island, London and all over England, Paris, the Caribbean, and Colombia, South America -- but not all during the same trip. Two days before Christmas, 2004 I was enjoying a warm tropical breeze on the beaches of the Colombian island of San Andres, east of Nicaragua. I was left stranded by myself in Paris last summer after deciding to take the metro to La Defense... the metro shut down for the night just as I got back to the station and I couldn't find a fucking taxi to save my life... I finally did and had to pay like 30 euro for homeboy to take me back to my hotel at Saint Lazare. Those are the memorable reasons why traveling is so much fun!

I'd like to meet:

Alessandra Ambrosio, Dave Chappelle, Lewis Black, Jim Carrey, Barry Bonds, JT Snow, Snoop Dogg, Frank Gehry, and... Pat Sajak (to let him know that I should have been on the show, even though I didn't make it past the auditions after solving TWO puzzles... DAMMIT!!)

Music:

Hip Hop, Rap, R&B, and House (m1live is the best!)... and some Rock (mostly the 90s grunge and alternative that I grew up with)

Movies:

Shawshank Redemption, Dumb and Dumber, Ace Ventura, Fargo, Dazed and Confused, The Untochables, The Godfather Trilogy, Rear Window, Garden State, The Italian Job, Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Terminator 2, Field of Dreams, and quite possibly my favorite movie ever... Cinema Paradiso... a foreign film from Italy that manages to make me cry everytime I watch it!! I love being Italian!!

Television:

Wheel of Fotune, Jeopardy, The Late Show with David Letterman, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, and Giants Baseball... the news is always good, too, if you feel like hanging yourself.

Books:

Books are for people that like to read. I look at the pictures, and then flip the page.

Heroes:

Mom and Dad--where would I be without them (literally)?

My Blog

Joe's New Seinfeld-Inspired Blog Series

So this is the first blog I've ever written in my life... I think.  But I've recently felt compelled to share my thoughts about strange things in life.  These random, sometimes awkward, and ...
