Good Morning Captain.

About Me

I work in an IT-related environment and enjoy many hobbies - Whether it involves Music, Reading, Writing, Painting, or Drawing. I'm married to the most amazing woman in the entire galaxy and we have kitties and a sweet pug named, Moxie.

I also enjoy great coffee, micro-brews, and independent film.

Why not visit Sadheel ?

"He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." - Friedrich Nietzsche
