People call me Bill. Actually people call me a lot of things but Bill is my name. I'm currently employed as a Network Administrator. Thats right, im a computer nerd. When I'm not doing that, I go to school, play some video games with friends, or just hang about and do nothing. I do a bit of freelance tech work to support my lavish lifestyle (or to pay for gas, whatever) and every once and then I've been known to design a website (though I'm rather bad at it). Wow, with such a crap description I don't think I even like myself. I swear I'm more interesting than all that.

I consider myself an all-purpose nerd. That meaning I enjoy knowledge in all fields I can get. Math, History, Biology, Sociology, Psychology, Philosophy, Geology, Musical Theory, Film Production, you name it. If I don't know at least something about a particular subject I'm usually interested in hearing about it. Also, I may not be particularly religious but I like to consider myself somewhat knowledgeable about Christianity (being raised such) and some other religions to a lesser extent. I greatly enjoy any halfway intelligent conversation on just about any topic.

Oh yes, I don't take life very seriously for the most part, so unless stated otherwise, I'm usually trying to be funny. That being said, If I am not joking, I tend to mean the things I say, exactly as I say them. It doesn't mesh with some people, but I use the exact (aka - honest) words I mean when I talk. I'm not implying anything, I'm not insinuating anything. If you ask me a question, I will give my real answer, so be ready for that.

Currently working toward my degree in Network Administration so I can dump this crap job and get a better one. The company I work for has many perks, like being able to come to work completely drunk (my coworkers, not me) 3 hours late and not get in trouble for it... but they don't pay particularly well.

Outside of work and school, I'm trying to fix up my house. Living alone and not having a lot of money or skill with carpentry makes this a long task.

New Addition: I'm restoring/rebuilding a 1976 Honda CB550 motorcycle. I can't ride it all the time obviously with Michigan weather, but itll be nice when I can.

I can type fast (122wpm at last test). I spell well. I'm good at hitting myself in the head on accident with random objects. I'm good at receiving bad news. I'm exceptionally skilled at making people really uncomfortable. I can say almost any ridiculous thing with a completely straight face.

In all seriousness I've been told I'm good at making people laugh or smile, improving the general mood they may be in. I'm good at building/fixing computers. I don't know if I'm "really" good at it, but I bowl rather well. I bowled 299 twice. After 20 years experience I can keep my average around 200. I'm good at having some obscure quote or reference to meet just about any situation. If my reference of choice doesn't work I'm good at bullshitting so long you will think it does.

I've played my share of Guitar Hero. And your share. And your relatives shares. I have beaten every song on expert, though not 5* yet.

Physically? Hard to say, I don't get people coming up and shouting, "What the hell is that on your face?" or anything. I tend to wear T-Shirts that get questions, things like "Kill Whitey" for instance. Personality wise, I don't (at first appearance) take anything too seriously.

Books - Harry Potter, Wheel of Time, A Song of Ice and Fire, most any fantasy fiction novels, also Kurt Vonnegut, Douglas Adams, Stephen King... many others. Unlike most fantasy fans I would rather stab my own eyes out with something rusty than read Tolkien again. There are actually quite a few excellent authors in the world of fan fiction (and many terrible ones). Check it out.

Movies - Harry Potter, Shawshank, Idiocracy, Any Kevin Smith film, just about anything with Brad Pitt or Hugh Grant... Why couldn't they do a movie together?

Music - Mostly Punk, some Metal/Rock, and a dab of anything else if it strikes my fancy. Lately Dethklok, Primus, Megadeth, the Vandals, and Harry Chapin.

Food - I'm trying to stay healthy now... lowering intake of red meat, saturated fat, complex carbohydrates, and sugar. Been eating a lot of whole grains, lean white meats, and more veggies/fruit than ever before. Turkey chili is a favorite.

There are very few objects that mean that much to me, Ideas seem too abstract, and people are a personal matter. There are people I'd kill or die for without thinking twice. With the right friends around, there is nothing I couldn't do without.

If I will accomplish any of the things I really want to. Also something to the effect of "Why am I bleeding?", but possibly worded differently.

Sometimes I spend a bit of time wondering if the people you hear about on the news (for whatever idiotic reasons) truly are representative of the world today or if they are the very worst extremes. I hope the latter.

The last few weeks I've been either working on my motorcycle or just relaxing with some friends. Also occasionally bowling.

I'll give two. One, I really really dig romantic comedies in general, and those with Hugh Grant to an irrational level. Seriously, I'm a big fan of fluffy romance. Second, I have a hard time spreading things on bread. Like, I'm physically incapable of putting jelly on bread and not looking like I'm handicapped while doing it. No idea why.

You have 5 minutes to spare and want some halfway interesting conversation. Even if you end up hating me, it'll probably be the most interesting story about why you hate someone ever. Also if you plan to actually reply to anything I send back. For some reason people don't do this. Even FUCK OFF! is a better reply then nothing, I know where I stand then.
