About Me

I'm a Private Investigator/Bounty Hunter who spends way too much time thinking about Martial Arts. Training is my drug of choice, and I need my fix often and in large doses!There is much in the world that goes unseen and unnoticed, and there are those that make it their life's study to master exactly those things. If you know what I'm referring to, then I'd love to talk to you.

My Interests

Graphic Arts, Martial Arts, Cooking, Movies, Pokemon!!, MMOGs, RPGs, Reading: (Horror, Sci Fi and Fantasy, Philosophy, Eastern Esoteric Lore, Religion and Spirituality, Self Improvement, Psychology, Kundalini Yoga and Qi Gong), Music...etc

I'd like to meet:

People who can hold a stimulating conversation, and can see through the trivialities and illusions of life to that which is truly important. If you can read between the lines in life, and better yet, write between them, then we have much to discuss.If your idea of reality is the Friends, the O.C. and Laguna Beach... well then, enjoy. =)I also love reconnecting with people I've lost touch with over the years, Myspace is great for that, isnt it?

Music:

70s Classic Soul, R&B, Classic Rock, Alternative, some various Rap and Hip Hop...

Movies:

Zatoichi (The Shintaro Katsu, not the Takeshi version), Akira Kurosawa films, Kung Fu flicks, Quentin Tarantino's movies, Steven Seagal's early work, Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Matrix (In order of quality descending from the first downwards), Star Wars, Blade, Last Samurai, Stanley Kubrick's Films, Oliver Stone, some of David Lynch's, plenty of old Horror, Predator and Alien series, and of course AvP, the list goes on and on.

Television:

I am not really a fan of network Television at all, I find most shows to be really contrived and limited. The Sopranos is the main thing I'd say I watch as an ongoing show, Curb your Enthusiasm is pretty funny, Smallville has episodes of varying quality. Used to be big on X-Files, but they sure ran that into the ground. Nip/Tuck is racy, but can be entertaining... More of a Movie guy when it comes to TV I guess. Recently I've become a huge fan of 24, as Jack Bauer is one of the coolest TV characters ever! I have to say that this year, NBC is bringing me back around with Heroes! I love that show so far!! Lets hope other networks get the clue and start brining this type of genre entertainment back!

Books:

Some of my most respected and cherished authors: Stephen King, Clive Barker, Bentley Little, JK Rowling, Robert Jordan, Glenn J Morris, Stephen K Hayes, Masaaki Hatsumi, Sun Tzu, Lao Tse, Miyamoto Musashi, Robert McGammon, R.A. Salvatore, Michael Crichton, Piers Anthony, Tom Clancy, Dean Koontz, Eric V. Lustbader, Lian Hearn, to name just a few. Just a drop in the bucket, and if I'm forgetting any, dont hold it against them. =)

Heroes:

Masaaki Hatsumi, Toshitsugu Takamatsu, to name a few... My score on The Naruto Jutsu Test :
Shadow Ninja
(You scored 38 Physical, 20 Ranged, 36 Illusional, and 19 Recovery!)
The art of all that is deadly lies in you. You use your genjutsu skills to lower the defences of your foes, and eradicate them with specialized up close attacks. You are one of the most feared type of ninjas because you are hard to track in battle.

Beginnings.
A young man holding the white rose of innocence in his left hand and grasping a vagabond's staff and satchel in the other, wanders with his gaze to the heavens, about to step into an abyss. His is the transformative journey of the spirit from innocence through experience into wisdom... his guardian and friend is the white dog symbolizing his own puppylike trust and faith, for which the world labels him The Fool.

SEER
The ULTIMATE personality test
brought to you by Quizilla
You are exactly what your name implies. You see what other people miss. You are the intellectual of the personality types, as well as the philosopher. You possess a cool and rational nature and take things in stride. You are concerned with the "Big Picture" as well, and you always know what's going on. You know people better than they know themselves and it makes them nervous sometimes. You know exactly what people don't want you to know about them, but fortunately you are a pacifist and don't (usually) use it against them. But take care not to get too detached through the lens of that powerful microscope of yours. You can be a little cool towards people and you sometimes need to remember that you have a heart as well as a brain.

I Am A: Chaotic Good Elf Ranger Druid
Alignment:
Chaotic Good characters are independent types with a strong belief in the value of goodness. They have little use for governments and other forces of order, and will generally do their own things, without heed to such groups.
Race:
Elves are the eldest of all races, although they are generally a bit smaller than humans. They are generally well-cultured, artistic, easy-going, and because of their long lives, unconcerned with day-to-day activities that other races frequently concern themselves with. Elves are, effectively, immortal, although they can be killed. After a thousand years or so, they simply pass on to the next plane of existance.
Primary Class:
Rangers are the defenders of nature and the elements. They are in tune with the Earth, and work to keep it safe and healthy.
Secondary Class:
Druids are a special variety of Cleric who serves the Earth, and can call upon the power in the earth to accomplish their goals. They tend to be somewhat fanatical about defending natural settings.
Deity:
Solonor Thelandria is the Chaotic Good elven god of archery and the hunt. He is also known as the Keen Eye, the Great Archer, and the Forest Hunter. His followers respect nature, and only hunt when needed, but are quick to defend the forest from intruders. Their favorite weapon is the bow, and they tend to be extremely talented with it. Solonor Thelandria's symbol is an arrow with green fletchings.
