About Me

"There comes a time when every man feels the urge to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag and start slitting throats". H. L. Mencken

Vegan. Soon-to-be-ex-Lawyer. Wannabe triathlete. I'm in the midst of closing my law practice and I'm back in school for engineering. It's... interesting.

I like to think I'm a pretty rockin' kind of guy. I hate the materialism, consumption and hatred in our world (yes, I hate hate. ironic, yes?), but like to have a rockin' good time. I find humour in most everything around me... humour that tends to escape most others, I have to admit. Well, now is the time where you give me $10. Why, do you ask? Because I said so, dammit. Fork it over.

My Interests

Your mom and your little sister. Duh.
Oh... and some other stuff, I guess... Sailing, Sailboats, boat building, triathlons, running, cycling, swimming, progressive politics, traveling, sailing, pirates, zombies, pirate zombies, Flying Spaghetti Monster, vikings, food, vegan chicks, sleeping, primus, les claypool, C2B3, fantasy, web comics, eating babies, fire, cleansing fire, burning things, flames, and um... other things and stuff..... Bush Zombies on FunnyOrDie.com ..

I'd like to meet:

Your mom and your little sister. You can have them IM me at "bobdmighty" on either yahoo or AIM. Being a vegan, I've got a particular fondness for those veggie/vegan folk, but I like most non-conformists who like to have a rockin' good time... What's It Gonna Be? ..

Music:

Stuff that doesn't suck.

Movies:

Anything with zombies and/or Bruce Campbell, V for Vendetta, The Big Lebowski, Donnie Darko, the Princess Bride, Office Space, Napoleon Dynamite, The Fifth Element, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and some others that I don't feel like thinking about right now. Why are you reading this anyway?

Television:

There's nothing on TV worth watching now that Buffy, Angel, and Farscape are gone. I take that BSG is pretty kickass.

Books:

Winnie the Pooh, Horton Hears a Who, Hop On Pop, Horton Hatches the Egg, Yertle the Turtle, The Sneetches, The Lorax, Gnomes and Gardens, anything by Douglas Adams... some other sci-fi/fantasy stuff (Robin Hobb is a genius)... American Psycho, The White Plague, Catch 22, most Stephen King stuff... can't really get into non-fiction... too depressing. Give me ten dollars, seriously.

Heroes:

"All my heroes have FBI files." (Thanks Food Fight!)

My Blog

One of those...

Ever have one of those days where you just can't seem to do anything right?  I'm having one of those lives.I feel like I'm in some Mr. Bean episode.  Or rather, a series of episodes.  E...

Too much Buffy?

I never thought there would be such a thing as too much Buffy... but I may have reached that point. Once a week, the local Beer Theatre (2nd run move theatre that's really cheap and serves beer and f...

And so the world turns...

Long time.  Well... I had myself a little vacation last week.  Drove out the Hood River. Took windsurfing lessons.  Met a girl.  Got the digits. Haven't called 'em yet. So... over...

The ups and downs

I got a call Tuesday from my father.  A not happy call.  The kind of call that makes you go "oh shit."  Calls that mention not wanting to "go on anymore."  Calls where a person men...
