Almost anything, You name it, I have probably done it, or, I'll probably be happy to try it.

My favorite hobbie is photography.
I have driven across the USA three times and have a large collection of photos from my trips.
I shot pool in a leaque for seven years out in calif.
I love playing poker. I have won two local touraments in Texas Hold'em. I also have won three Backgammon touraments
You will find in my group of "Friends", GOD, Jesus, Satan, Moses and other religious icons. They are there just for the symbolism.
All religions are simply that, "Symbolism"
Thousands of years of Myths, Icons and Symbolic stories meant to influence people to behave in a disired manner.
I believe in "Nature". That's why Charles Darwin is listed.
Meeting new people is always interesting.
Myspace is a good place to do that.
I've noticed some people say very little about themselves on their profile. What a waste of a great opportunity to express yourself. I saw a profile where the ladies answer to the "About Me",, she put,, "I am me".
I thought, Well,,that helps, thanks for telling me a lot about yourself.
If you are a Delusional Believer in Gods,
Watch all the following videos.
If you have any common sense intelligence, you will/SHOULD "Think" differently after watching them.
George Carlin on the
"Ten Commandments"
..
How Scientist Age The Planet
..
Al Brenner "I am an Atheist"
..
Penn & Teller Bible Bullshit
..
The TRUTH can be found in the works of
"Darwin & Dawkins"
Richard Dawkins. "The GOD Delusion"
From: Derealized®
Sam Harris gave a speech recently at the Aspen Ideas Festival . It was titled “Believing the Unbelievable: The Clash Between Faith and Reason in the Modern World.â€
Here’s the video :
I enjoy a good conversation with an intelligent, articulate, honest and confident Lady. Hopefully another realist like myself. Not someone that is going to say something like, OH! You are an Aries. Please, astrology is a bunch of "Silly Nonsense".
Someone with a good (if not Great) sense of humor.
I like women as close to "All Natural" as possible.
Healthy looking and slender.
Someone who makes my "Natural Instincts"
very aware of her presence.
Someone who makes me feel "Carbonated"
Someone whose appearance reflects the beautiful woman inside.
Eyes that say things that don't require words.
A great smile is always nice to look at.
Love is the absolute best thing you can share with someone.
Love can be more nourishing then food.
The most valuble thing you can poses,
is the affection of someone who loves you.
If you are interested in getting to know me,
I suggest you read my blogs.
If you read all of it,I'm impressed (and so are you)
I'm certain you have never read anything like it.
If you don't want to read what I have to say, then at least read my favorite quotes.
Some brilliant comments from some brilliant people.
John Lennon - "IMAGINE"
John Lennon - "GOD"
John Lennon - "Mind Games"
Eagles - Hotel California
Don Henley is Brilliant
Pink Floyd - "Keep Talking"
I have seen
Pink Floyd Live three times.
David Gilmour signed an
album for me in 1994(Pulse Tour)
I think their best work goes as follows:
1."Dark Side Of The Moon"
2."The Wall"
3."A Momentary Lapse Of Reason"
4."The Division Bell"
5."Wish You Were Here"
If I recommended a first
PF CD for a new fan,
I would say "PULSE"
I love Music. I think it has Magic.
"Do you believe in Magic" [John Sebastian]
It can take us places in our minds.
It can tell us stories. It can make us think.
It can make us feel emotions, music can inspire us, music can calm the savage beast, Make us clap our hands,and stomp our feet. It can send a beat though us and make us get up and dance. What else can do all that?
I got my first "Transistor Radio" when I was five yrs old,, Life has been Magical since then.
I like most all styles of music,(even country, some) if it has a good melody, intelligent thoughtful lyrics and talented musicians.
My favorite is Classic Rock. I think the best decade for music was 1964 though 1974. (after the simple Shu Bop Do Wop era and before Disco & "Boy George") When music lyrics matured and had a message, what I call "Social Commentary"
like
John Lennon, Bob Dylan, Mick Jaggar,Pete Townsend,
Jim Morrison,Jimi Hendrix,Grace Slick,Ian Anderson,
David Gilmour,Don Henley,Ronnie VanZant,
Eric Clapton,David Crosby,Steven Stills,Neil Young,
Carlos Santana,Jon Anderson Eric Burton Stevie Wonder and many others. All of them "Legends"
Of coarse there are all the Ladies.
Some of my favorites..
Carley Simon, Joni Mitchell, Carol King, Stevie Nicks, Alanis Morissette, Sade, Toni Braxton, Anita baker, Taylor Dane, Celine Dion, Gloria Estefan, Nancy and Ann Wilson,(Heart) and many others I like.
I have a very large collection of great songs including over 900 of my favorite Love Songs. (you name it,I probably have it)
I especially like romantic Spanish guitar like Al DiMeola
and Santo Govi
I really like all the great Motown stuff, I have it all.
I think of it as,, when Blacks were Beautiful, and had pride in their talent. They had great melodies and harmonies. I have tried hard to like Hip Hop and RAP.
But there is such little real talent and is so cheap
that I dont respect the people producing it.
I don't go to concerts to watch some guy grabbing his crotch the whole show while saying the word HOE. (Bling is for Fools,the more bling, the bigger the fool) The way I see it is, If you can't Write music, can't read music,
can't play music, can't sing music, If you know absolutely nothing about music, Well,, then you do "RAP"
I like alot of the newer stuff like,,, Stained, Three Doors Down, Godsmack, Incubus, Audioslave,
S.T.P., Theory Of A Dead Man and several others.I have been to over 100 rock concerts and have seen most all the Great Bands. Pink Floyd 4 times (The Best ever live show) I have an album signed by David Gilmour. Santana 4 times (one of my favorites,everybodies dancing) Supertramp 3 times (Brilliant) Don Henley/Eagles 3 times (Greatest American Band)ZZTop 3 times (Tons of Fun) YES 3 times (Amazing Talent) Kansas 3 times (Awsome,how do they do that) Rolling Stones (speak for themselves) WHO (Legends)Bob Dylan (What a Mind,He started it all with his lyrics,the First Rapper with a melody)Willie Nelson 2 times (An Icon,everybody Loves Wille) Eric Clapton (GOD,the only true god)Al DiMeola (WOW!!The most talented hands in the world)Van Halen 2times (both versions, Eddie & Alex make the band what it is)and many other Great Groups.
My mother(in the sixties)worked for "Electro Strings-Rickenbacker Guitars" in Santa Ana Calif. She made John Lennon's famous black and white rhythm guitar.The very first song ever played on that giutar was a song my mother wrote called "Peanut Butter And Jelly". She made Pete Townsends (WHO) guitar that is in the Rock n Roll Hall Of Fame, and Rodger Mcgwinn's Twelve string electric(The Birds)and many other famous guitars.
Twelve years later, I was working for Fender Musical Instruments in Fullerton Calif. I assembled the Fender Roades Electric Piano. I built a piano for John Lennon. What a coincidence. Our little contribution to the world of Rock N Roll. Virtually every great band used a Fender Roades piano. I play the drums. Mom said I got my rythem from her.
I like most all types. Keep it realistic, and I will probably enjoy it. A good story or a good laugh. I grew up in Tucson Arizona watching "Westerns" "My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys" [Willie Nelson] I'm the "Lone Ranger" type. I don't think Actors are special in any way. Acting is just a job, that does not really produce much that is tangible, like thousands of "Working Class Heroes" do every day. I don’t celebrate "celebrities", they're just people. Who cares, what Paris Hilton wears.
Mostly things like, The History channel, Discovery, Science, National Geographic. Television can be a Window to the world, a soarce of information and entertainment, or a total waste of time. In my life time,I have gone from 1 black and white channel to the 317 channels I now have.
"Letters From Earth"[Mark Twain]
"Cosmos" [Carl Sagan]
"A Breif History Of Time" [Dr Steven Hawking]
"The GOD Delusion" [Richard Dawkins]
Anything I can learn something from(something REAL)
Anything that reveals the truth and exposes fraud.
I appreciate reading the words to many great songs
like,,, Imagine, GOD, All You Need Is Love, Instant Karma, Come Together, Revolution, Working Class Hero,
Mind Games, Love,[John Lennon] or,, Blowin In The Wind, It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding, Ballad Of A Thin Man, Like A Rolling Stone, Positivly Forth Street, Love Minus Zero [Bob Dylan] and countless other great songs.
I also like great humor and news paper comics like "Herman" [Jim Unger]Brilliant lines like...( a mother talking to her son) "Now you're in grade 4,daddy's not going to be able to help you with your homework anymore"...or (two old folks dancing) "How long have you had your feet on the wrong legs"...(husband talking to wife)"If you really loved me,you'd have married someone else"
All the great "Thinkers" and "Peace Makers" in history. Charles Darwin, John Lennon ,Carl Sagan, Mark Twain, Issac Newton, Galileo Galilei, Albert Enstien, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, Ben Franklin and many others. Those who speak the truth, even in the face of adversity. Protects the innocent even at their own peril. Honesty is the foundation of their character. They seek the truth, and stick to it.
