I am ugly, mean, and stupid.

My Self-Summary

I feel like someone who does not fit in very well to Southern California culture even though I have lived here all my life. Does that sound too emo?

I tend to get pleasure out of either simple things done very well and the people around me.

What I’m doing with my life

I'm a mechanical engineer - I used to work for Toyota designing/testing racing engines (NASCAR). Now I'm at a more research oriented company - basically designing medical devices.

I'd really like to go back to grad school and get a PhD so that I could teach engineering some day.

I've spent most of my life trying to do what I thought was the right thing - and that has mostly paid off - but I am trying to figure out what I really like and want to do now rather than constantly deferring pleasure in the name of responsibility. I tend to get involved in lots of projects and I like to help people out when I can. But right now I'm trying to find a way to do a little more living and a little less working.

I’m really good at

Hearing what people have to say. Talking. Staying cool in a bad situation. Changing oil. Being critical. Giving you the benefit of the doubt. Picking out the bass line in a song.

The first things people usually notice about me

That I am very detail oriented and curious. Also my acne scarred van-face.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books:
Steinbeck, Salinger, Hemmingway, Pynchon, Mark Twain, Joseph Conrad, Noam Chomsky - also found the Autobiography of Malcolm X fascinating. Recently George Orwell and Oscar Wilde

Movies:
There Will Be Blood, All the President's Men, The Godfather, Apocaplypse Now, L.A. Confidential, Rachel Getting Married, Helvetica, The Fog of War, Bottle Rocket, The Royal Tennebaums, The Graduate, Pulp Fiction, Cool Hand Luke, The Squid and the Whale, No Country for Old Men...I also tend to like documentaries and or somewhat off-beat type movies - Errol Morris

Music:
Air, Al Green, Alton Ellis, Amy Winehouse, The Band, The Beatles, Beck, Beirut, Bill Evans... The Slackers, Sly and the Family Stone, Smashing Pumpkins, The Smiths, Smokey Robinson, Stan Getz, Steel Pulse, Steve Miller, Stevie Wonder, The Strokes, Sublime... Recently Miike Snow and Jurassic 5

The six things I could never do without

wikipedia

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Where is my future wife right now and what is she doing and would I want to see it - because right now it's happening somewhere and I'm missing it...

On a typical Friday night I am

Being really cool and doing all sorts of things that, if you were there to see them, would make you want me instantly.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I love Mad Men

You should message me if

you use a machete to cut through red tape
