I am here for Friends

About Me

I am content with who I am.I have opinions, deal with it.

My Interests

Science, Taekwondo, bodily fluids, reading, Paintball, outdoors sh--stuff, Taekwondo, games. My precious bodily fluids. Cooking. Oh, and first on the list is my wife. *waggles eyebrows*. oh, and an unhealthy interest in politics.Recently, I have been amusing myself by watching my neighbors attempt to tick us off. Better than a soap opera in a sad, pitiful way. Especially all the screaming at each other. We never scream at each other. heh.

I'd like to meet:

Chuck Norris, Jesus (not in that order), Jet Li, Christian Bale, all my wife's ex-boyfriends, and the guy who invented the urinal. That guy was a genius. Oh, and random people. that's the most fun.

Music:

anything except rap. and r&b. and annoying country. I really like the guys and the band Down the Line, they kickass. Of course, the Man In Black. Offspring. Increasingly, I will listen to Classical. The Elders and Spanish Guitar music, but not at the same time.

Movies:

The professional, Army of Darkness, Monty Python and the quest for the holy grail, star trek II, batman begins, band of brothers, serenity, equilibrium, van wilder, casablanca, north by northwest, arsenic and old lace, the rough riders, unbreakable, Dr. Strangelove (if you haven't noticed lots of references so far because I can't get the stupid quotes out of my head). Stranger than Fiction. The Lost Skeleton of Cadavera.

Television:

Firefly, stargate SG-1, Lost, Battlestar Gallactica, Junkyard Wars. This all assumes I have time to watch it all, which I don't.

Books:

Non-predictible sci-fi. Starship troopers (and almost anything Heinlein), anything by L.E. Modesitt, anything by Stephen Ambrose, Terry Prachett, Peter David, Christopher Stacheff, Andre Norton, Anne McCaffery, Madiline LeEngle, David Eddings, Issac Asimov, Frank Herbert to name a few. A friend reminded me of Robin Hobb, andre norton. Really too many to count, or remember, except for my poor sore back due to moving all the said books. stupid ebay, tempting me with a fast internet connection and bulk deals! Seriously, books are my addiction, even though I should only be reading scientific journals nowadays. Oh, and Military history (since that's most of history), and influences of history by infectious diseases (you would be surprised)

Heroes:

parents, Teddy Rooseveldt, Gen Jack D Ripper, all the soldiers I have ever had the honor of meeting, um...if I said John Wayne would that mark me as a hick? Joss Whedon is a genius!!! Otherwise, I respect them, but I try to be whoever the heck I want to be. Don't ask me now, I don't know who I am. *points* Look, deer!

My Blog

Journal of the urinal.

Day 21.  Both urinals in the men's loo still smell like a pit toilet at a campsite after memorial day weekend.  Someone should complain about it, but the first rule of grad school is don't d...
