The best words to describe me is: Super Geek My hero(es): Christoper Reeve
Words or phrases I overuse: Don't be a baby, it's only a flesh wound!
What else you should know about me:
I love environmental causes, am an avid reader, love all kinds of music and movies, hate the current state of politics, sang at Carnegie Hall with my high school choir, and I think Jon Stewart & Stephen Colbert are GODS!! (if I had to put anyone up on a pedestal). I also think Alan Shore and Denny Crane are the two best characters on TV today... sorry Cameron and John, but you're close!
IN MY DREAMS...
In the movie version of my life, I would be played by: Matt Damon, but I look a little more like Jon Heder.
My childhood ambition/career goal: don't get arrested (ha ha)
If I were a breakfast cereal, I would be: Cocoa Puffs (it's a reference to Denny Crane's line on Boston Legal: during a court hearing he tells a reporter he's Cuckoo For Cocoa Puffs!) Loved the cereal as a kid, loved the line!
If I could live anywhere, it would be: Ireland (though it changes with every travel book I read)-- [shakes fist in the air] Rick Steves!!!!!
My dream job(s): Movie director
My dream vacation(s): Tahiti, Norway, Canadian Rockies
TO-THE-MOMENT ME
Last movie I saw: "Indiana Jones 4." A big pile of rubbish! (I'm being too kind). The first two films were excellent, with Raiders being an absolute classic, and Temple a fun, dark, non-stop roller coaster ride from start to finish! Crusade is a work by Mark Twain in comparison to Crystal Skull, which has James Patterson-quality writing all over it! What a waste of good time and money! After Lucas' Star Wars Prequel debacle, I should have known better.

Last album I listened to: Best of Supertramp
Last big splurge: Paradigm Reference speakers
Last real vacation: Washington State (3 years ago!)
Hobbies: Hiking, fishing, camping, watching movies, reading, listening to great music
Food(s): I'm not picky, although I hate green beens, mushrooms, cooked spinach, and beets. Oh, and anything that still looks like it might walk off my plate!
Gadget(s): SA-CD/DVD-Audio player, Playstation 3 (for Blu-ray), 1080p projection TV, 8 channel surround sound decoder, multi-channel amps, and speakers.
Vacation spot(s): Anywhere, but here!
I like my eggs... scrambled
