Dustin Hopper

About me:

I like cake. I'm a fat boy, what do you expect? I'm 33, male, and lookin' for some lovin'! I am a liberal, but I'm open minded. ;)I listen to radio shows and podcasts at work like Stephanie Miller, Thom Hartmann, Big Ed Shultz, and The Todd and Tyler show fill my ears. I'm just learning to live and let live while getting out there and openly supporting my causes and candidates. It's not easy because I love to argue!

I am not religious. For twenty seven years or so, I struggled with Christianity. These days the only organized religion, if you could call it that, that I appreciate is Buddhism. Otherwise, you could call me an agnostic/atheist. Agnostic because I say, we don't know, and something COULD exist, but there's no proof of it, and atheist because I don't believe in ANY religion or gods.

I used to be a radio broadcaster. I've worked or interned at the following stations:

KFDI: College Intern, I got an A!
KYQQ 106.5: My very FIRST on air gig and internship! The station was top 40 at the time. I was sixteen when I got this gig thanks to my buddy Jason, or Jaywalker. I also ended my on air career here when it was Hot Country.
KRBB B98-FM: My first FULL TIME GIG! I was also their morning show producer, twice.
1330 KFH: I did the weather, ran the board, and other odd jobs. I did do the sports one time as Shaquille O'neill. I know, I am retarded, but it didn't go un-noticed!
Mix 105.3: I got my nickname from here. I got to host my first morning show here, and even did some shows with Scotty B and the crew. I was most known for the 100 meter Dustin carry, in which some guy I didn't know, came down to the station and carried me live on the radio down the street. I spent my time being carried making stupid remarks about how close I was to him and how much he liked me. As he was leaving I looked at him, live on the air and said, "Miss Me". :)
Larry Stecklines Ag Network: I actually turned down a full time position with these guys. I was broadcast over three states and fifty plus stations every day.

Not many people know much about me. Here's my life summed up in one extremely long paragraph. Be forwarned, I'm a fairly open person.

Born in Wichita, Halloween of 1975. Adopted out at three months. Got the shit beat out of me till I was 12 by my troll faced adopted mother and she moved me around from state to state while burning down houses cause she was a pyro. Later I got a lawyer and gave the adopted mother the smack down. I lost my birth mother at 13, one week later, watched my grandmother die from cancer. A couple years later, lost her son, my stepfather Gerald, and her ex-husband, my grandfather Fats. Mom left me a few bucks from the insurance money she collected after an eighteen wheeler steamrolled her car, I wasted it, but paid off the house I live in. I worked in radio, got depression, quit radio, not all in that order, college is in there somewhere. I had depression for five years until 9/11 hit and I went apeshit. I'm great now thanks to Lexapro. In fact, I'm the BEST I've ever been! I believe anti-depressants are a miracle to man. I guess I was always kind of depressed. I'm learning how to live a happy life now with my rules. When it comes to women, I haven't had very much luck. When it comes to vehicles, for some reason, I have great karma in that department! I'd prefer to have a best friend in my life personally over the vehicle. My life has been full of alot of emotion, pain, loss, eternal sadness, self exploration, and realization. I feel that while most people are searching for who they are, I'm ahead of the game, as I've had my mid life crisis already. My life has helped me wise up and learn about myself. In my opinion, someone with life knowledge is far better off than someone with just book knowledge and no idea of who they truly are. If you have both, you are really cooking with butter, and good luck to you! ;) Anything else I've left out, I may add later.

Also, you may be wondering why my myspace url has cadenblaker in it. Well, I'm working on changing my name to Caden L. Blaker. Blaker is my mothers maiden name, Caden is just a name I like, and the L, is silent, in honor of my birth mother, Linda.
