Now where is that monkey? I need to shoot something...

About Me

Well, a friend told me to check out MySpace, so here I am. Just scanning through other profiles, it looks like there are a lot of folks who spend a whole bunch of time editing their profiles and backgrounds. Pretty cool to look at, but I don't think I'm going to spend that much time with this.

My Interests

I enjoy playing golf (though I'm not very good at it...thank god they encourage drinking on the course), playing darts and watching/playing football. I also like hiking, going to the gym and camping. I'm also a volunteer down at the King County Animal Shelter in Kent. Let me know if you're looking for a dog! :-)

I'd like to meet:

Just looking for people with similar interests in the South Puget Sound area! Being a UW fan helps, too.Oh...and if you have an interest in playing co-ed flag football next fall in a league up in Seattle, let me know, too!! We're not ultra-competitive, but we do have a halfway decent team, so we'd like to build on that.

Music:

All kinds of rock--Metallica, Godsmack, Eagles, Limp Bizkit, Kid Rock, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Van Halen, Def Leppard, Green Day, Journey, P.O.D., Shinedown, Bruce Springsteen, Scorpions, Motley Crue... Some older rap artists (thanks to my college roommate) - N.W.A, Eazy-E, Ice-T... And some artists that just have good voices - Shawn Colvin and Norah Jones, for example...

Movies:

Star Wars, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Stripes, American Pie, The Lord of The Rings, Crash, Happy Gilmore, Clerks, Braveheart, The Family Stone, Gladiator, The Princess Bride, Independence Day, Die Hard...

Television:

The Simpsons, The Sopranos, the NFL, Lost (though that's getting a little tiresome), My Name is Earl, The Office, and Battlestar Galactica. Heroes and Jericho this season are becoming shows I'm really enjoying.

Books:

As you can tell, my tastes run all over the map--I like mysteries and sci-fi, biographies and fiction, pretty much any genre but the romance novels.
