About Me


I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !
I like people. I like to make them laugh. And I like to make them happy.I like to make things. I especially like to make things that other people think are cool. Doesn't matter what really. I've made some fancy furniture. I've written a few songs. I've made lots of computer programs. I've made greeting cards for the people I love. I've made up quite a few poems. I can do just about anything I want reasonably well if I try hard enough. Mostly the stuff I do I do for other people. Many people aren't smiling-- sometimes there's a good reason. If I find out there's no good reason, then I may try to make them smile. If I find out there is a good reason, then I listen. Sometimes that helps.My favorite movie: Big Wednesday; My favorite song (it changes all the time) : Centerfield; My favorite poem: The Raven; My favorite novel: Atlas Shrugged; My favorite web site: wikipedia.org; My favorite color: green; My favorite hand tool: Swiss Army Knife; My favorite art form: music; My favorite toy: Tonka trucks; My favorite car: 1972 Mustang Mach1; My favorite word: you; My favorite game: Scrabble; My favorite spectator sport: Football; My favorite subject in school: history; My least favorite thing: injustice;Stuff I've done: loving, laughing, painting, drawing, singing, guitar, harmonica, saxophone, computer programming, airbrushing, auto mechanics, sewing, plumbing, masonry, framing, drywall, stucco, roofing, optics, electronics, writing, reading, thinking, fishing, boating, swimming, running, hunting, metalworking, woodworking, fixing stuff, stuff with women that's not appropriate for MySpace, driving, management, listening, eating, drinking, sleeping, dreaming, hoping, praying, caring, helping, bicycling, motorcycling, cooking, playing, dancing, and all the boring stuff too.I collect three things: People, memories, and tools.

Intro

Well, well. So here's my first attempt at a weBLOG. Nothing much to say just now. Here's a great quotation: "TV is a medium-- so called because it is neither rare nor well done."
