Dr. Floyd

I am here for Friends

About Me

I am currently a teacher in Hampton, Virginia. I was born in Pennsyltucky and lived there until I graduated from college in 1999. I did a brief stint living in the Land of Darkness (maryland) before moving here in August 2002. I am extremely close to my friends and very sentimental.

My Interests

History -- World War II, Civil War, the Cold War (since no one remembers the Soviet Union), and pretty much everything else historical! Coast to Coast AM, and other weird and "Art Bell-ish" type things. Travel (by car). Books. Science Fiction.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone, I guess. :-) My AIM screen name is DrFloydy.

Music:

My musical taste is very esoteric and unusual, but my usual line of "I don't listen to music" doesn't seem to hold up any more. I have a liking for late '70s pop...I guess it fits, being that was when I was born.

Movies:

The Picard Song Video

Television:

Star Trek. Hogan's Heroes. Dallas. Twilight Zone. A really eclectic collection of other shows no one has ever heard of. :-)

Books:

Treasure Island

Heroes:

Dr. Floyd, of course!

September 11th thoughts

My old car

So my 1996 Pontiac Sunfire convertible with 178,000 miles has been spotted... Some sucker out there actually purchased the money-sucking car. Good luck to her -- she'll need it.
