I moved from Toledo Ohio about a year and a half ago. I grew up the son of a Ford mechanic. While others were playing with Legos or trains, I was taking apart carburetors and valve heads. I was the gloomy art student in high school as well as being top of my class in mathematics (yeah Pre-calculus did me lots of good as an adult). Do I use both sides of my brain? ...just a little.

Used to be a goth but have got no real time for it anymore. It is from this that I gained my irreverent and politically incorrect humor.
Amazingly, I never did drugs, not even a little pot. I never got a tattoo either. I never had the urge to.
However, I am pot friendly as many of my friends still smoke and I love tattoos as an art form, but please let mean SOMETHING.

I am mutable; Like to debate situations and perspectives if presented to me with fact, and a rational educated case to back it up. So PLEASE challenge my views, and try to be up to date on current events.

I am going to come out and be direct about things. Will expect (almost crave) that in return. Why make something as complex as dating even harder by not being honest and to the point?

I think for my self and don't worry about what people say anymore. I do not follow popular trends nor do I care what is "hip" or "trendy" either. I want to be who I am, not what society tells me to be.
Sheeple need not apply.

I am an ENTP sometimes an ENTJ. Depends on my mood...

I am starting my life over in Portland and I am having fun with this!

I am in a open relationship with BlueRadiance for whom I am pretty crazy for. However we both like to have are freedom and adding to are little circle.

I hope to be going back to College to finish my Network Admin. degree and get re-certified in everything...
This is on the back burner for now as work takes up too much time, but I am still getting the certifications on my own.

Wanting to learn how to play guitar again, its been too long.
Knife making as soon as I can get all of the tools for it. Right now I am still learning.

If not the above, I am usually sucking down caffeine in about any form I can find it in at a coffee shop with my laptop.

Speed reading, I read at about 550+ words per minute.
Computers and Servers
(build, fix, repair, maintain, configure, and network them, no programming, yes I will fix yours).
Working on cars
(and yes, I will take a look at yours).
Drawing & sketching. Not really "good" at is as I am passionate about it.
Overstepping lines of good taste to find humor and making horrible,often lewd, one liners.
Jail braking/Rooting/Unlocking Phones.
(Yes, I will unlock yours too, ..sigh..)
Learning to be a real hacker.
Running Cat5 and configuring WiFi networks.
Being a all around handyman, I can safely say I can fix just about everything. (With in reason!)
Trivial knowledge sponge and dispensary.
When I get depressed or mad, I bake :P
My friends all hate me for this because their girlfriends love it when I bake. I was dubbed as their "Betty Crocker Bitch".. I don't know if that is a good thing or not? :P

Blue Eyes
My geekiness
My height
That I am left handed
The overkill amount of sugar I put in my coffee.
My inability to notice normal social cues. :-P

Usually these are the things that people tell me about, it's not like I go asking.

books:
I would love to wow you with my literary knowledge but I admit, I really need to read something other than just textbooks and tech journals. Maybe I will make that my next New Years resolution.

movies:
I watch a TON of documentary's on about everything, just pick the topic.
Rocky Horror Picture Show
Repo! The Genetic Opera
The Gene Generation
Pi
Requiem for a Dream
any Clint Eastwood film
ANY THING BY David Lynch
Art films
Blazing Saddles
The Quantum Activist
I will watch almost anything. So if there is something you want to show me, then by all means do!

Music: 80's & 90's alternative, Industrial, Goth, Old 80's thrash metal, Blues, Jazz Fusion, Techno, Dub Step, Classical, Punk, Ska, Psychobilly...ah hell just name it, I will have a favorite song from that category.
I have a ton of favorite bands so it is just best to ask if you want details. I am totally down for music swapping!

TV: X-Files, Sons of Anarchy, The Wire, Dr. Who, Destination Truth, Ghost Hunters, Band of Brothers (when its on..I know its a mini series), Beavis and Butthead, Ren and Stimpy, The Maxx, Tiny Toons, Animianiacs, Invader Zim, BSG, Firefly, Farscape, Eureka!, Babylon 5, Game of Thrones, NCIS, UK's Top Gear.

food:
I will try about anything you put in front of me. I do not care if it is vegan or its bacon wrapped in bacon. Odds are I will like it.
Also, I do not know where the good restaurants are in Portland, so if we decide to go to dinner, you will have to pick the place as I have no idea.

I used to answer this section literally. I now see that this is more or less wasted space since everyone puts the same answers on it. SO!, I will just what ever makes me happy. :P

** None of these are true BTW**
1. my (In)sanilty
2. my (In)testines
3. my Ex girlfriends
4. my next failed relationship
(if you are lucky, IT COULD BE YOU!!! :D )
5. my collection of nose pickings
6. Trimet at midnight. If you think I am strange, take the 57 bus at 12am just once. You will see that I am a fine, well adjusted human by all rates of comparison.

(**BONUS**)
7. my coffee...
I like it just like my women...COLD, DARK, AND BITTER!

Ok, that is not true, sometimes I like to put cream in it.. And by cream I mean my gentleman sausage, and by coffee I mean COFFEE.
What? Doesn't every guy?

8. My crazy earth mother girl and true best friend BlueRadiance

EVERYTHING, I really have to control that "over thinking"
thing.
(is this really a problem???)

Kendo / Iaido and where to find a good class for it.

Not to sound like so pretentious Douche but I do love to ponder
quantum mechanics and theory. I also have a love to blend it with
spirituality to create interesting perspectives and personal
spiritual view points.

Where I can buy a cheap left handed guitar.

How and why the brain works when it comes to emotions.
We evolved to have a intellect and rational thinking, why in the
hell do we not use THAT more often?

I have a weird soft spot and like to ponder over conspiracy
theory's or any type of "non main stream media". I listen to Coast
to Coast AM almost every night just to laugh at the crazy's that
call in, or the guests.
Also for golden moments like this

With the old farm house I grew up in, and some of the weird things
that did happened there, is what started my interest in Ghost
Hunting. So nothing would make me happier than to have someone else with me as I run around in an empty run down place in the dark and see if I can hear dead people. (Huh! Just realized that describes many goth nights, Only minus the music!)

Also star gazing and UFO spotting. The stars are just pretty to
look at, the UFO is what I am hoping to see. Again it would be
great to have someone to lay on the blanket with me and,should I
spot one, be there as a witness.... or for other stuff. ;-)

Ideally, over at a friends house or out at a Goth night with friends. At a coffee shop talking like I think I KNOW something.
Sometimes I pop in at Ground Kontrol when I get that bad arcade itch.
Otherwise it is just me in front of my laptop downloading music and movies or watching a new anime series. (YARRR I be an Internet Movie Pirate!!)

The truth is that I am a huge geek (SSSSSHHHHHHHH!!!!)
So I keep the fact that I like pencil an paper RPG's like D&D, Pathfinder, Battletech, Shadowrun, and Starwars, kinda hidden.
And I am interested in the SCA, but time never seems to be there for me to get into it.

I watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magical, and I am an in the closet Glee geek. :P

Oh, and I have the patience of a gnat.
To me, life moves to damn slow..... :P

Umm..I have a little girl that still lives in Ohio. It is a long and unhappy story...

you would like to find out that I am not as nuts as my profile
makes me seem.

is a big turn on that I never put much thought into)
you want to go to the shooting range. I love to teach!

"confusion" or "insanity".
