My baby daughter Christa who is not so much a baby anymore. I love racing, speed, the adrenalin rush of, well everything that can give you one, extreme tech, learning stuff, making stuff, blowing stuff up, social binge drinking of blue things. I get bored easily, entertain me.
Potential sponsers for my racing efforts, a good doctor to fix my broken parts and my quriky immune system, intellectual people, scientists, poets, writers, debaters, skilled artesans, craftsmen, artists of all sorts, creative, engauging, funny and analytical people.People who have opinions, that don't agree with mine. Nearly everyone can be interesting or smart in some way. Buzzkill is cocky people with no substance. Competent cocky people are cool. So are dumb people as long as they are hot! j/kIf you are not one of the above and you want to add me as a friend read this. If you are one of those spamming bot girls who are trying to get me to look at your web cams or your for charge nekked web sites, I won't add you. You annoy the heck out of me. If you want to be added, I will add you if I actualy know you or you are at least a motorsports or automotive enthusiast. I won't add people who randomly want to be added, I mean whats the point?
I like most music and am not super picky in my tastes. My preference is alternative rock. I really like the seattle sound, total grundge. Pearl Jam, STP, Nirvana, stuff like that. Kinda raw simple and not heavily produced. I like post punk era stuff as well.Stuff I don't like: Hardcore, Opera, Emo and total sappy pop.
I am a closet film snob. I also like really stupid movies. Campy B movies, Nuvo Classic stuff, Indie Stuff, Troma weird horror stuff, stupid low brow southmoric humor, Quriky humor like Clerks, office space, etc. The crappy thing is the stuff I like is on late on cable (yawn) the IFC and Sundance channels rule! The Fast and the Furious sucks. So does all that NASCAR on Speed channel.
I hate TV, who has time for it. I hate reality TV the most. Star Trek 1st gen, South Park, Two dimentional old school Bevis and Butthead, Thunderbirds, Battle Bots, Iron Chef, Futurama, The Simpsons, Speedchannel. You should not watch more than an hour a day at the most, your mind will rot. The alternative is to watch really stupid TV like me, you will feel smarter....TV is the opiate of the proletariat (Mike Kojima circa 2003)
Supringly I can read.... Tom Clancy (well, figure that, all engineer geeks read his shit), Arther C. Clarke, Tom Wolfe, John Irving, Some Isaac Asimov, Hunter S. Thompson, P.J. O'Rorke, Carrol Smith (The best engineer/writer ever) rules, he is my hero, I aspire to write like him, Dave Coleman has humor and geekyness, too bad he only does car magazines, Smokey Yunick (the redneck mad scientist).One day I'll write a book or magazine article not related to cars or something technical but no one would probably buy it much less read it.
My Sharon, friend, mother and good person, all the emergency response guys who perished on 9/11, people in our armed forces, Daryn Kobata the tiny girl with the big heart who ministers in places I dare not tread.I wish I could be half as good as you all...
