I am geeky, introverted, and cynical.
My Self-Summary
Let's see.. Father, atheist, occasional philosophizer...
(Is this 100 characters yet?)
(Guess not.)
Lately all of my writing has been in 140 character bursts. And a
lot of it has been in haiku form. I don't know what that
signifies.
I often think that if it wasn't for MouseHunt, I wouldn't have a
Facebook profile at all.
Currently living in Sault Sainte Marie. I should be living in the
Guelph/GTA area by Feb 1.
What I’m doing with my life
This & that. You know how it goes. I spend a lot of time
returning videotapes.
I’m really good at
Procrastination, snoozing alarms, this, that, & the other
thing. (But I really excel at the other thing.) I'm pretty good at
making a sturgeon face.
The first things people usually notice about me
My bald pate, or maybe my belief that "wrinkly" is a fashion style,
or maybe my tattoos, or maybe that I'm looking away.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books: Mostly newer sci-fi - Reynolds, Stross, Hamilton. Dawkins.
Ayn Rand. Just started The God Delusion by Dawkins.
Movies: The Matrix, American Psycho, Fight Club, 300, Gran Torino,
Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas, Star Trek (the new one), V for
Vendetta, The Count of Monte Cristo. I own (and have watched) a
copy of Zardoz, and a box set of Kubrick flicks. There are a number
of "classic" films I have never seen (ie: The Godfather, Jaws, Taxi
Driver, Scarface), which I've been meaning to fix.
Music: Clutch, Kyuss, Brant Bjork, NIN, Tool, Truckfighters,
Greenleaf. The surprise bands I ended up enjoying this summer was
Birdy Nam Nam and Black Light Burns. My "2009 Summer Album" would
be "Local Angel" by Brant Bjork.
Someone once said that Clutch was sent to Earth to save us from the
sin of not rocking out. I couldn't agree more.
Food: Sushi, Taco Bell. I recently cooked battered bacon. I can
cook (and I use the term loosely) a damn mean peanut butter
pie.
TV: Usually on for background noise. Shows I watch: Leaf games,
Mythbusters, Colbert, and Iron Chef. I have little love for
situational comedy or drama. However, I'm currently obsessed with
Mad Men.
The six things I could never do without
My son. Everything else is transitory (excluding air, etc. And
maybe Pumpkin Spice Lattes.)
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Haikus. 70's hairstyles. Twitter. Evolution. Genetic algorithms.
Star Trek. Superpowers. Politics. New media. Mischief. Zombies. The
endless variations of "Kirk vs Picard".
I bet the main export of Kashyyyk was knitted sweaters.
On a typical Friday night I am
Watching a movie, or reading, or goofing off on the internet.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
The last time I had dinner with a woman she left for a leg waxing
appointment.
You should message me if
You're curious about me. Or if you want to grab a coffee sometime.
Or not.
