About Me

OK, remember back in middle school, when you went to an assembly program and some guy did all sorts of cool, geeky stuff on stage with dry ice and liquid nitrogen and other sweet explosions and shit? Yeah, well, that's me. Minus the guy part. Just your friendly neighborhood science geek.

My Interests

kickball, my garden, walking around my neighborhood, farmers' markets, felting recycled sweaters, chasing kids, cheap Asian and Latino food, buying stuff on the cheap, travel, gruner veltliner, hands-on science, um....

Music:

Lyle Lovett, any cheesy 80s pop, badass 70s disco funk, Sun Ra, Liz Phair, Dan Zanes, Man or Astroman, Johnny Cash, The Police, They Might Be Giants, to be continued...

Movies:

Shawshank Redeption, Clerks, O Brother Where Art Thou, Napoleon Dynamite, The Professional, Fargo, Hudsucker Proxy, Dogma

Television:

Simpsons (which I don't get to watch anymore since my kid started paying WAY too much attention to it), The Office, Desperate Housewives (shut up), MythBusters, Scrubs, Antiques Roadshow, Hell's Kitchen (really, now, shut up). And oh how I miss the Daily Show...sniff...

Books:

A People's History of the United States, Click Clack Moo, anything David Sedaris, and...well, mostly non-fiction these days. Oh, and your standard assortment of preschool literature. I can honestly say that I hate the Berenstain Bears.
