I'm a very technical person, I'm very analytical (to a fault), I study and work in a very technical field. However despite how technical, analytical, and obsessive I am, I also feel I am a very creative person. The dream was to study and build the tools I would need to make my own dreams come true.

I fit within what people would call nerdy. I can tell you about the inconsitancies of each rendition of the Star Trek saga if you so wished. I've written my own works of fiction, I'll study just about anything that holds my interest, and I'm prone to over thinking everything.

However I contend, that what some call nerdy, I merely identify as the ultimate appreciation of life and the human mind. I love life so much that I want to partake in this adventure of exploring every nuance it has to offer.

Perhaps my enthusiasm is nothing more then a case of arrested Development. I never lost that child like exploration, and sense of adventure.

Beside me are books, journals, and binders full of ideas, and projects. The reality is most of them won't ever see the light of day (the even larger truth is even more them never deserve too).

I've had both successes and failures (more the latter then the former) and finally now feel as if the pieces are finally coming into place.

In terms of what I do for a profession, I do a bit of it all. I often find myself filling the role of IT, but I mainly work Networking (as in networking computers). I also have taken up small jobs helping resolve server side errors, and troubleshooting, and even more recently taken up an additional job in web development.

I'm also well versed in C# and Java, with a workable knowledge in C and DOS and others.

Long winded responses.

Is it my eyes?

Tell me my eyes are like sapphires.

I'm a bit of a film nut. My favorites include Reservoir Dogs, Alien, Aliens, Blade Runner, Pulp Fiction, Robo Cop, Highlander, The Ting, Citizen Kane, 1984, Back to the Future, The original Star Wars trilogy, 2001 Space Odyssey, Clockwork Orange, Mad Max, The Secret of NIMH, Land Before Time, The God Father, Down Fall, I could go on but I'll spare you.

Some of my favorite books are The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, 1984, Starship Troopers, Fahrenheit 451, No Truce with Kings, A Stranger in a Strange Land, Tiger! Tiger! (aka The Stars My Destination), Brave New World, and again I could go on.

As long as it's not kicking by the time it gets to my plate, I'll try anything once.

Something worth the effort

Well here is were I enter the Narcissistic ramblings of the self appointed intellectual. Hopefully I can place in summery what beliefs I hold as truth without boring, or betraying the intention of the very idea I articulate.

I'm Libertarian, and a skeptic. Though I contend one follows the other. I'm a big fan of Classical Liberal Philosophy, otherwise known as enlightenment. I do though hold a lot of sympathy towards more modern iterations of what I see as objective responses to Classical Liberalism (libertarianism, Objectivism, Volunteerism, ect)

The biggest difference I have with modern liberals (whom I think are not liberal at all, and typically refer to as Neoliberal) is the idea of force. Neoliberals often despite what they may say, love guns. They just don't like using guns themselves. They love it when the state uses force to uphold the opinions (laws) that they agree with. The litigation of force is still force. Something this country with the highest incarceration rate of the world suffers from.

I'm not an anarchist. I don't believe in no Laws. I just believe we should make as much of an effort as possible to govern this country with as few laws as possible to uphold and protect the rights of all our populace.

We've entrusted the protection of our rights to the same body that is the single largest offender of those rights.

I reject the notion of straight left and right labeling. Instead I'd offer a metric of Up and down. A measurement of more freedom or less. I'm defiantly not Conservative (I care nothing for conserving the social prejudices of the past, see gay rights, religious fanatics, prayer in school) and I believe a more apt term for modern Liberals is "little tyrants" (Legislating taxes on sodas, censoring media (and if you don't believe modern liberals censor then let me blow your mind), bullying companies to adopt policies that are not profitable, financing programs through dept)

I'm a person who really dose question everything. Even things I agree with. I play Devil's advocate, even to my own beliefs, and I enjoy the company of those who disagree with me, and I truly mean that.

One of the most uncomfortable things for me, is to be in a room where everyone agrees with each other. For the sake of my own sanity (what little of it I may have) I'll take up the mantle of devils advocate. Especially when I hear the words "I can't believe people think..." Or something to that effect. And I encourage anyone to take up the position of their opposition if only just for a day. Walk a mile in their intellectual shoes and you'll find that a) there is logic behind their argument, b) you're better suited to to argue against it.

And It very well may be that I'm wrong. I Certainly don't think so (If I thought I was wrong I wouldn't believe what I believe) But I'm willing to approach every conversation with the possibility that everything I believe in may be proven wrong.

I know this is all very boring to most people, and rest assured I can turn it off. I don't go out in public with my tinfoil hat on, nor do I go around preaching my beliefs. If anything I'm typically very Socratic, I might ask a few questions, but I'm very cautious to make any claims of my own.

And I really do mean that I enjoy the company of people I do not agree with. I seek them out. Nothing is more exciting to me then to learn something new. To gain a different perspective (whether or no I agree with that perspective is another issue entirely). I find most people avoid others that they don't agree with. People are rather cliquey that way I guess.

Days are days to me. Some days I work, others I don't. Some days I drink, another day I might visit the dentist. The name of the day is ultimately meaningless to me.

Except Mondays. I hate Mondays.

I'm a maniac.

I'm serious I suffer from Mania.

It's like when your brain can't stop. You have no control over what you are thinking about, and the thoughts just keep coming faster and faster.

I've got it under control it's really nothing too exciting. The worst that might happen is I'll ramble on a bit (ok I ramble a lot), or if my mind isn't stimulated enough you'll see me jittering my teeth, or my leg will start shaking (physically compensating for the lack of mental stimulation)

I wouldn't give it up though. Some might see it as a curse (or defect) but I see it as my muse. My compulsion (or perhaps obsession) to continually investigate, and create in the world around me.

I'll sleep when I'm dead. Till then I'll continue to enjoy this absolutely amazing world.

I want to know everything, about everything. However time has conspired against me.

You love exploring, whether that be new Restaurants, seedy bars, obscure movies, science, philosophy, new music, and new people.
