My Interests

My interest are varied. I am into paint ball, motor cycle riding, and computer’s and gaming ... I have played ( and from time to time still play) star wars galaxies, mec warriors, halo, city of heroes, city of villains, guild wars, and many more. -------- I was a member of the knights of Excalibur out of Bronx NY years ago( paint ball) between 1987 and 1995. I don’t play much any more now that everything is geared for speed ball. Give me a thick wooded area and a stock pistol and no time limit any day. that’s how the game is really played.--------- I broke my leg in a motor cycle accident nearly 10 years ago. This of course did not make me stop riding. In less then 3 months after I broke my leg in three places I was back on 2 wheels. Last year I had to sell my bike to make ends meet on bills. I plan on getting another bike some day. Nothing beats the wind in your face. To all who ride, ride free. I will join you soon.------ I am also into target shooting. I have a license to Carrie in the state of Tennessee’s. I pack a compact 45 auto, and practice at the range when ever I can. I grew up with weapons In Mississippi, and I am also x- military. ( 11b infantry) The second amendment is there to protect the rest.;) . If you don’t understand this, then maybe you are part of the problem------------------ I like camping and fishing and hunting. Like I said, I am a Mississippi boy. When it comes t wilderness survival I can say that I know my way around. When I lived in NY I would once a year go into the mountains of up state and camp for a week.------------- I am really big into writing and science fiction. I write some, but I also have dyslexia which can make writing a real pain in the ass. But I do my best. I hope to be known some day ether throw short stories or even a book. It is a passion of mine that has been with me since I was a small child currently don’t have anything published, but some of my work has been archived with in other venues. Hay, it’s a start. Of course with this comes a likening of movies and books. TV shows like doctor who, star trek ( of course) and all the usual suspects. My taste run the gambit of sci-fi, fantasy and horror. My stories reflect a combination of all into one. My influences have been HP Lovecraft, edger Allan Poe, Isaac asmove, Harlan Ellison, pierce antony, terry brooks, Stephen king, Larry nivens and many many more.---------- I am also a student of ninpo tiejistsu, and have trained at the NYbudo in NY city when it was located on 5th ave, and have meet Stephen k Hayes twice.( you can start with the turtle jokes now.) when I broke my leg 10 years ago I feel out of practice. I now live in Nashville, and there are no schools in this art that I know of. But my interest s still very strong. For those who do not know this is a 900 year old Japanese art that thanks to Hollywood has gotten a lot of bad press and is to some considered a running joke. But there’s nothing funny about it at all. So we who know tend to grin and bare it. ----------------- Which Babylon 5 Character Are You?

What Martial Art Are You?


Ninjutsu
You are ninjutsu, you clever fox! You rely on a variety of different principles and techniques to get through the day. You are clever, versatile and often totally unexpected! Ninjutsu covers a great deal of ground, as you know how to handle weapons, avoidance, hand to hand techniques and sometimes espionage. Few know anything about you, and you use that to your advantage as you hide, dodge or trip your way into victory. Ninjutsu is spiritually concerned with endurance, both of the body and the heart.

what breed of music are you?
created with QuizFarm.comMy music interest varies. I like a lot of music styles between the classic to the heavy. Rap and hip-hop I stay away from. Not my bag, tho some it is not that bad. And I listen to very little country. ( veeeeeeery little) a sample of what I listen to is Mozart, Alan parsons project, blue oyster cult, Styx, Dio, Megadeth, cradle of filth. You get the idea. But I keep an open mind and give everything a fair shake when it comes to music. But in the end I am and always will be a big BOC freak. (that’s blue oyster cult for you slow people. ) To me the biggest and best work or art to come out of the music in the past 5000 years has to be “ IMAGINOS” by the genius sandy pearlmen and arranged and composed by the immortal Albert bouchard. And of course performer by blue oyster cult. If you have never heard this music album then you have truly missed out indeed. { sucks for you. :( }PIC BELOW PER THE STELLA COLLECTION{ WHO I STOLE IT FROM ;) }

Books:

Since I was a small child I have had a rather……. Active imagination. I have had an interest in writing for many years, and have an idea or two. My stories and style run the gambit of science fiction, horror, and fantasy. In most cases all at the same time. Maybe some day I can get some posted and written. Till then I will just have to keep trying. It’s a pain to break into this field. Having dyslexia dose not help matters. But as Harlan would most likely say, that’s a piss poor excuse. ( and he would be right. ) To list the books I have read would take a wile, and yet I know people who have read more. I will instead list my favorite writers and influences on my writing. Stephen King, Harlan Ellison, Larry Nivens, JMS, Terry Brooks, Pierce Anthony, Chris Claremont , Edger Allan Poe, H.P lovecraft, Isaac Asmove, and many many more.

Heroes:

Not too long ago a wise warrior told me about the dangers of having heroes. When you have a hero you tend to place them apound a pedestal for all the world to see. And as you sit there gazing up at him/her you in time start to see the flaws and the cracks in the armor. that’s when you find that all you thought you knew and what was , was nothing but an illusion. The let down can be like a hammer. I think you should be your own hero, your own inspiration. This way in the end the only person who could let you down. Is you.
