About Me

uhhhh, tough one. idealistic but pragmatic at the same time. very open-minded and tolerant of others though at times i can sound like a narrowminded asshole. it's all good! i love a good time and can be outgoing but my default state is a mix between introvert and extrovert. i definitely need time on my own to recharge. a good run (when my body isn't falling apart like i feel it has been the last 6 - 12 months; you try running three marathons without fully training-- great fun!) is always a welcome diversion. i love spending time outdoors, though i can't say i'm totally into the camping thing. more of a day-tripper. this attitude leads me to do stupid shit like hike down the grand canyon and back in one day. yeah some people do it fast and without much of a problem. they're called iron men! what else: among my life goals is to own a ferrari. not really a big deal to some but at this point it seems so damn unattainable that it's something to work towards. and when i'm driving my own, i won't be obeying any speed limits, so look the fuck out!! haha....

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

anyone with a sense of humor, people who don't suck, people who aren't mean but are ready to bitchslap an asshole without making any apologies for it (i think the buddhists have a term for this sort of behavior: wrath, not quite but close), people who try not to sleepwalk through life, republicans so i can laugh at them!, george w. bush (i can't call him president until i personally count the votes) so i can bitchslap him, it would have been cool to meet teddy roosevelt (seems like a cool mo-fo), hugh hefner (just because, just because...), bono (isn't that fucker awesome?!), p.diddy (that jackass beat me at the nyc marathon in '03- he passed me while i was taking a dump, (i did run with literally no sleep, i was on call the night before on a trauma rotation and had to get special permission to leave at 4am to go run-- yeah i'm fucked up!) i need to arm wrestle him or something to help me get over the whole thing!), and of course (drum roll please)......you!

early morning commute humor

So I'm at a traffic light this morning behind one of Madison's finest drivers.  Light turns green, I wait about ten seconds, the car in front of me still has brake lights on.  So I give a qu...

Al Gore for President

i kinda like this draft Gore idea.  i figure, what the hell, the guy won the popular vote in 2000, and he probably won the technical vote too.  we should have him serve his term, whether he ...

observations on the road
