Music
Infected Mushroom. Minimal. Alternative & Indie rock. Radiohead. The Books.
Movies
Blah blah, nobody really cares.
Television
TV is a waste of my time. I do watch it sometimes though, usually Family Guy, South Park, or The Simpsons...apparently I like cartoons.
Books
Cryptonomicon is my fav. Used to read only cyberpunk, but now I'm branching out. Reading some Chuck Palahniuk right now.
Heroes
Too many to list. I'm tired of talking about myself.

About me: My "about me" description was so outdated it was ridiculous. I'm constantly changing and learning new things. I refuse to settle down because there's so much to learn. So many things I haven't done yet. I pretty much don't know anything, and I don't know what I want.
Awesome. Yeah send me it if you can find it. Lol I remember for the CE project in high school I made a person in 3D Studio Max. I wish I could find the files. It sucked badly, but would be fun to see again.
I have played Dawn of War 2. It is a lot of fun, but gets sort of repetitive. I haven't beat it yet but I still have it installed. I recently purchased Left 4 Dead and am eagerly awaiting the SDK, which is going to be released "soon", so I can start mapping for it. I buy more games now, if they're good (usually from Newegg it is less expensive).
ship (click HD). I messed up on the texturing, since I'm just learning how to use UV maps. So I'll probably have to start over. I have to make 6 different ships for my mid-term anyway.
I think I will learn animation in the class as well. He hasn't gotten to that yet. I am making some assets for a game I am thinking about making. here is a super-early preview, hehe (and by preview, it's just a concept design I am working on). I think it's going to be like a web-based php/html game. I have written up a fair amount of game mechanics. Nothing really fancy. I don't know if you've ever played Warbook on Facebook, but it'll be sort of like that. I might do some animation in flash, but I'm not sure yet. I plan to have a pretty good backstory, and tie everything into it, so it's not just another mindless game.
Nice. Is it going to be like Heroin Hero? Cause that would be awesome and amazing.
I haven't had much time lately, and I'm working on so much stuff. It sucks having so many hobbies. I could make that program gather any sort of data. I could probably make it go through and save all the comments on a MySpace profile and put them into a database or excel sheet or something. Actually that might not be a bad idea. A lot of people would probably use it. It might take a while to save the comments though, and it could be a resource hog. Not sure if my server would like me for it. haha.
I am working on a 3D replica of Bodium castle in my 3D class. Everyone is still figuring out how to properly use lighting on a cube and a plane, so I'm a bit ahead of the class, hehe. I should show you the latest version of my fighter craft, but I don't have the program to render it at work (Maya).
Ah crap, nice! (about the Maserati!) I did buy my PC originally just for a few games. Then I started doing my web stuff on the PC. I started to like it more than the Mac pretty quickly. I've upgraded my computer a lot since then. I think I'm on the 15th major upgrade for it, and I just got a 640GB drive to add to my 160 and 250 (1TB, woot). I got a G5 mouse too. My MX518 was fine, but I needed a mouse to carry around with my laptop, so I figured I'd upgrade to the G5 for my desktop. I like it, although it isn't amazingly better than the MX518.
I prefer Windows over Mac OS actually, especially for design related work. I have used every version of Mac OS X on G4s, G5s, and iMacs (with Intel CPUs), and I still like Windows better. It doesn't look as pretty, but I work a lot more efficiently on it and it feels more natural. I like the mouse acceleration better as well, and I can't seem to get the Mac configured to something that feels comfortable. I'm sure if I purchased a nice Mac and used it with my 22" lcd, and took the time to get used to it, I could eventually reach the level of comfort and efficiency that I am at with Windows. But there is still more stuff available for Windows and configurability, and PCs are less expensive and I like to build my own!
Hey, I like my plain laptop! I was considering painting it and making it custom, but I didn't. lol.
I wall-mounted my monitor. I'm still getting used to it, but it's pretty cool. More desk space.
I made a little application that gets the source code of an entered website and then locates all of the links it contains. You can try it out here. I made it really quick and it doesn't do anything really cool yet. But I plan to make it so that it follows each link and then gathers all the links from the linked pages. And then I could have it go another level, although the number of links will be immense. It doesn't work well with links that contain javascript though.
I could make the application display all images found on a website. Or other cool things.
Good coil over systems are spendy, but from what I've read are worth it. It is + or - toe that usually tears tires up, and the shop that aligns your suspension should be able to tell you what the toe is on each tire (as well as camber). I installed original equipment JDM Type R springs, shocks, and rear LCAs on my Integra a year ago or so. I then got new tires and an alignment. The tires still have a lot of life left in them even though I corner hard a lot.
It's not really that big. About the size of a Jetta really. I wanted all wheel drive, and I don't like Subaru's. The A4 happens to be perfect for me. I don't have any pictures yet, it is still at the dealership, they're fixing a problem with the instrument cluster. I think they messed something up when they were detailing it, cause it was fine until I started it up right after they got done detailing it, and the oil light came on. They're taking care of it though so no big deal, I'm driving around a newer A4 right now as a loaner. I did get to see it after they cleaned it up, and I can't wait to get it back.
2003. It has 49k on it, excellent condition, and has most of the options available that year including nav. It's white, and has a 6-speed manual and the higher end engine (3.0L V6). The last owner had Borla stainless mufflers put on, which don't do much but make it sound just a little more beefy.
I was on a trip with my oceanography class all weekend, it was freaken awesome. That's K1 Speed right? I've been wanting to go there and try it out.
I am working on an image posting website, sort of like digg but images only. It is also like failblog but not just fail pictures. I've written it from scratch in PHP, and there are functions to auto resize pictures, create thumbnails, and other things. I wrote a basic search engine too, not too complicated really. Joe is helping me beta test and I still have to work on the user control panel, but it is otherwise close to done.
Oh, I don't use ASP anymore, just PHP, and I've learned it very quickly. I've made a bunch of things in it, including a car dealership website (look through the pre-owned database). Also currently working on a super-corporate website for my work with shopping cart software. *_*
I'll have to drive your Lude! Sounds pretty quick, probably a lot faster than my integra.
