I am passionate, open, and nerdy.

My Self-Summary

I'm a home-body... partly. I love mountain biking and even enjoy the occasional road-ride. Playing in the dirt is great, it's like being a kid again.
A few years ago I became interested photography. I've had some amazing mentors and have improved quite a bit with their guidance. Ideally I'd like to make some money off it, but I'll always be happy just doing it for me. (http://www.flickr.com/photos/minskyba)
I'm much happier entertaining some good friends at home than I am at a bar - I've never understood the point of paying $8 for a beer while shouting at the person next to you. Needless to say clubs aren't my thing either.

What I’m doing with my life

I'm a professional nerd: I work with servers and linux at my day job. I don't wear a pocket-protector or wear glasses though, so I'm a fairly stealthy nerd.
My second job is at a bike shop. About 3 years ago I walked in to check out some bikes and walked out with a job.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

I haven't read in a while, but I enjoy physics and mathematics. Brief History of Time is the one most everyone's heard of. I like going deeper than that though: Elegant Universe, Black Hole War, Zero, etc.
I'm not into horror movies. I much prefer sci-fi and comedy.
Fooooooood. My father owned a restaurant when I was young and it really gave me an appreciation for the art that is cooking. I enjoy most types of food and am always open to new stuff!

The six things I could never do without

I'm a very technical person. I can really only say I can't live without food and air. Shelter is optional in the right places. However, if I'd have to come up with a list of the top 6 things I wouldn't want to give up (in no particular order)

Mountain bike
Camera
Internet
A/C
Family
Close friends

On a typical Friday night I am

Fairly boring.
