I currently work as an engineer for a small ferrite manufacturing company in northern New Jersey. If you dont know what ferrite is (like most people), its basically metal powder pressed into various shapes then fired in a kiln. Its used in all electronic equipment, but we specialize in celluar and LAN equipment components or anything that uses high speed data transmission. I design the testing programs for all the various parts we make and I'm also doing some web design for our data sheets.
I am a huge Bettie Page fan. If you dont know who she is, she was a famous 50's pinup model that did alot of risque and bondage photos in her time. Check out my slideshow for some great examples.
I just love her look, her jet black hair (especially the bangs) and her outgoing nature. I collect almost anything with her likeness, especially books, magazines, original photos, trading cards, stickers/decals and anything interesting.
Also, I'm a huge fan (or pest) of Opie and Anthony!
I've listened to them since 1998 when they started on WNEW in New York and I bought XM Satalite Radio just to listen to them.
Now, they're back on terrestrial radio! Specifically 92.3 WXRK in New York and other stations throughout the country.
O&A are now in several markets on both CBS and Citadel radio stations. Click here to find out where they are in your neck of the woods.
I dont even watch TV anymore because I listen to to the show all night and Ron and Fez all weekend.
To pass the time, I play some of my favorite video games on my PC. Some titles I own are: Half-Life 2, Quake 4,
Doom 3, Far Cry, The Sims 2, GTA: San Andreas, Jedi Academy, Max Payne, Myst (only the first 3, the last 2 sucked!) and FEAR. I don't play any onliηe games...I dont have that much free time.
Currently playing: Bioshock
It's set in an underwater city with some great visuals that can be quite disturbing!
Bettie putting on her stockings and getting dressed. This was very titilating in the fifties.
Bettie helps the bodacious buxom beauty Tempest Storm get dressed. After all, women were so helpless back then.
When Bettie dances, chaos ensues!
Vera van Munster does her best Bettie Page, she sure likes talking on that telephone.
Paige Richards plays Bettie Page in this film that recreates the bondage flicks she made. I think any Bettie fan should check out this great film by Cult Epics.
This clip from TNBP recreates a bondage flick called Sally's Punishment. Gretchen Mol really has an uncanny resemblence to Bettie.
Last but not least, the trailer for The Notorious Bettie Page starring Gretchen Mol.
If you'd like to, please leave a voice comment and tell me what you think of my page or anything else on your mind.

Bettie on film
The Notorious Bettie Page:
Bettie Page - Dark Angel:
Repo Man:
Im not an Emilio Estevez fan, but this movie is great.
Some Comedies I like are The Blues Brothers, Napoleon Dynamite, Ed Wood, Mel Brooks movies like Spaceballs and Blazing Saddles, Cheech & Chong movies, Team America, Jackass the Movie and Grizzly Man...LOL.
Action and Sci-Fi Movies like the first two Alien movies are great, the Matrix movies except for Revolutions, The Fifth Element, Ultraviolet (gotta love Milla Jovovich!), Lord of War, V for Vendetta, Sin City, The Rock, Constantine, Hellboy, Aeon Flux, Spider-Man, Dare Devil, X-Men, Batman Begins, Fantastic Four, Doom and Superman Returns.
Not to Mention Star Wars, Star Trek, and I really like the Lord of The Rings movies.
Being a child of the '80s, I thought Transformers was awesome.
J.J. Abrams (creator of Lost) is directing the new Star Trek flick, out next year. Should be cool since he's doing it.
The little television that I do watch is usually contained to the History Channel, TLC and Discovery. But, my favorite shows are all animated like:
The Simpsons, Family Guy, Futurama, King of the Hill, Spongebob, South Park, Drawn Together, Venture Bros., Aqua Teen, Sealab 2021, Harvey Birdman, Home Movies, Cowboy Bebop, Invader Zim, Robot Chicken, Salad Fingers (it's not on TV, but worth mentioning)
and my new favorite...Metalocalypse!
Some of the books I've read over time are:
"A Brief History of Time" by Stephen Hawking...Teaches you all about black holes (not Robin Quivers).
"Hyper Space" by Michio Kaku...It's all about higher dimensions.
"Fingerprints of the Gods" by Graham Hancock...Lost civilizations before the ancient Egyptians.
"The Real Bettie Page" by Richard Foster...It all went down hill after the 50's. It's also the inspiration for the film "The Notorious Betty Page".
