I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

My name is James and I am a 26 year old full time college student who also works full time......lucky me. I am currently going to California State University, Los Angeles "studying" Computer Information Systems. I was born in Glendale, CA and have basically lived in Eagle Rock (Los Angeles) most of my life. I enjoy driving cars, breaking cars, fixing cars, and doing the same things to computers too....almost, can't exactly drive a computer. ^_^ Going to the shooting range.....and I aint talking about golf. I also enjoy long walks on the beach and cute cuddly puppies..... scratch that.... I am too lazy yo walk that long, and puppies pee everywhere :(. Not the most interesting life, but fuck it. It is better than no life at all.
I am currently attempting to restore a 1968 Ford F250 Pickup truck. I guess I should not really say restore. I really want to clean it up and speed it up so that I have a fun little toy for the weekends. Due to the vastness of my wealth I am a taking my time :P. I also own a 1984 Corolla as a daily driver and hopefully with some work (and money) a weekend track car.
I am and have been for a while a fan of Japanese animation or anime. Yes, there are a lot of kids cartoons that have been badly translated into English, but there is also a lot of quality anime that is more in depth and has a higher quality story than most movies or shows out there (and no, I am not talking about hentai). It is nice to have stories where heroes die and villains win. It gets annoying in most movies and stuff where only the "good guy" wins......face reality, that shit aint always gonna happen.

My Interests

I am interested in all kinds of stuff. Cars, computers, radios, firearms, anime, and other various things. One of my most favorite things is my truck, a 1968 Ford F-250 with a 360 FE motor, three on the tree trans, and a really loose nut behind the wheel. Also my little Corolla... Rear wheel drive is the funnest to drive.

Remember one thing...

GLOCK© PERFECTION

I'd like to meet:

Other people with similar interests to me......that is kind of a stupid question. Or even better, a rich person willing to adopt a 26 year old college student. Or the person who controls the CA lottery numbers.

Just FYI, I have a wonderful girlfriend and am not looking to go dating other people (not to mention that she would kick my ass...even if she is smaller than me :P). For some reason people think that this is some sort of dating service. I am just on here to hit up my friends and maybe meet people interested in cars or anime or something. If you are going to message me, please do it for one of those reasons.....thanks. (especially if you have a corolla and want to get rid of spare parts :P)

Music:

"Old Skool" rap.....I hate to call it "Old Skool", but that is how it is (I guess that when the OG gangsta rap that I listen to is over 10 years old....it should be called old). I also enjoy some Rock, Metallica, Avenged Sevenfold, J-pop, J rock, X, most 80's music, freestyle, old house shit, and many other various songs here and there.

This is some old skool madness here.... I remember lookin like crazy trying to find this song....
Caution.... explicit lyrics so don't fucken complain because you were warned!A few more rap songs...

Movies:

It just depends, I watch all kinds of stuff. Anything with good company. If you really must know some favorites:
Top Gun
Seven Samurai
Macross: Do You Remember Love
Gone in 60 Seconds
And so many other movies that I don't wanna waste the time listing them....

Television:

I really don't watch too much TV. Sometimes I watch a little bit of anime, but that is about it. Hell, I don't really even own one....just use the VGA converter for PS2 and dvd player.

Books:

Repair manuals, as little as possible for school, books with pictures......come to think about it, I really don't read that much.

Heroes:

My hero is my cat. All he does is eat, sleep and shit......must be nice not to have worries. :) I really haven't looked up to many people, so it is kind of hard to say. The role models that I have, I really don't wanna be like. I still can't figure it out......I guess I will stick with the fucking cat....

My Corolla

Just thought I would say a little thing about my car.  Poor thing is 23 years old.  It is abused every day that I drive it.  So far the only things that have broken on it are things tha...

Having morals sucks sometimes :P

Why is it that what you want and what you should do are always two different things?  That never really did make sense how that tends to be the situation........

Just a random thought that went too far.....

Life can change in the blink of an eye. Life is the same for a long time, then out of the blue events happen that make you look back at your life and say what happened. Your whole life to this point ...

Hit and run

Fucking bastards hit my truck.  It turns out it was a teal ford, mustang or thunderbird.  Idiots were doing doughnuts in the intersection and lost control.  Hope I find thos sons of bit...
