Pirate Meets Gadget

About Me

My given name is Daniel. However, I have used and continue to answer to and even introduce myself as, many different nicknames reflecting my interest in Home Theaters and Electronics of nearly all kinds. I am not as active as I used to be in the sports and actvities that I loved so much when I was more free to pursue them like running, biking, hiking, river running, rock climbing, snowboarding, swimming, cliff jumping, scuba diving, snokeling, adventure video-taping, anything to get the adrenaline pumping and that I could find the money and transportation for. I love (still) and was one of the founders, if you will, of Rap-Jumping, basically rappelling down a cliff face in leaps and bounds like in the Army commercials, but turned around, going FACE FIRST! Now THAT is fun (and not even too expensive). I have managed to get by with different jobs and am still trying to make my way into business for myself as home theater installer, which I have worked professionally as for a custom electronics store here in Chico. I prefer to be the one calling the shots, but I'm still learning how to do the calling. LOL There is a lot to running everything yourself.

My Interests

For some reason, when I put the videos online as public, they end up simply disappearing from my profile. So, I posted them as private. I thought that would permit my "friends" to see them, but maybe not. Here is the direct link to the first video, the one where the pus is squeezed out of my leg...yes, it hurt, even with anesthesia:http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids .individual&videoid=2025982251This link is to the second video, where the case, or alien cocoon as I called it, was removed. Boy, THAT was a surprise as I was unaware such a thing existed!http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.in dividual&videoid=2025998131

I'd like to meet:

I am no longer looking to find that one someone who understands what it means to love God, try to follow His directives, fail, and try again--I have found her. I was born and raised Seventh-Day Adventist and know I will not be able to change my beliefs in the truth of that saving msg. I know that the right girl for me will be of like mind and heart (and she is).
