About Me

Crippled in a work accident in 2003, I can still walk but suffer from chronic pain which makes even simple things difficult (the worst is finding out things you used to do but can't anymore... like ride rollercoasters or play disc golf).I look totally normal (well, the cane is sort of a giveaway) but take enough meds to kill a horse just to be able to get out of bed. I've gotten over the depression from the accident, and am a much happier person now.I've moved back to Bradenton to goto school to get more advanced tech certs and be closer to family and friends.

My Interests

Reading (old to new SciFi), Live Music (Jam Bands), Movies, Cooking (Baking especially... yum!), Building Computers + Websites, Anything Outdoors... whatever sounds like fun !

I'd like to meet:

Someone new, someone old (like I've known for awhile... not a geriatric)... someone I can laugh with and be my best friend...

Music:

Grateful Dead (JGB + LoM too), The String Cheese Incident (I was their lighting director for awhile), Spearhead (Michael Franti rules!), Mahavishnu Orchestra, Galactic, Moe, Mofro, Psychedelic Breakfest and a ton of others.... The Pixies, Radiohead, TMBG, The Cure...too many too list !! Anything Baroque, Mozart + Beethoven and the other masters...some opera (actually, all of it but NO Wagner...ugh), but no modern symphony music.

Movies:

Anything from Akira Kurosawa and erm, anything I like ;¬) Anime of all kinds. Lots of Anime.

Books:

Golden/Silver/Modern SciFi, Fantasy, Science Textbooks (Physics + Chemistry are my favs), Shakespeare, Poetry (I have a *huge* collection of Dylan Thomas and such)... anything good really. Just finished 'The Road' by Cormac McCarthy... horribly sad but eloquently written.

Heroes:

Jim Henson, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Mr. Rogers, Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, My parents....
