Bill's Interests
|
| General | History, Movies, Theater, Event Production, Renaissance Faires, Dickens Faires, Gaming, Current Events, Books, Space, Archaeology (Classical). For the more comprehensive list just ask... | | Music | It's simple: if it's not rap, then it really can't be that bad. | | Movies | Having started out life in the era of the Star Wars revolution, and having grown up as a fan of movies I will watch anything and get something out of it (even if it's a frame of reference on what not to watch). As for personal preferences, pretty much anything other than Terms of Endearment type meloncholy-dramas (however I am a self-avowed nostalgist, and love films along those lines).
 | | Television | Currently: Battlestar Galactica, Survivor, Lost, CSI, Amazing Race, Heroes, Boston Legal, Rome, Sopranos
Past: Star Trek, Firefly, Babylon 5, Gilmore Girls, Buffy, Angel, X-Files |

About me:
 Subscribe in a reader
I'm a your average Silicon Valley geek w/ a penchent for games, movies, swords, history, renaissance faires, and about everything in between.
If you do RenFaires anywhere west of the Rockeys we've probably crossed paths somewhere in the last many years, but don't be offended if I don't remember your name offhand, I'm terrible w/ names to say the least. If you do see me at faire or on the streets, come on up and say hi. I rarely bite without an invitation.
These days I'm doing my best to step out of being the chronic workaholic and spend time with old friends and meeting new ones. Travelling a lot more, and generally trying to see where I want to go next.
