Interests

  • Music

    Still like music like CCR and The Doors. Still an Offspring fan. Right now I'm listinging to the Come Out and Play album by Twisted Sister. It was a digital MP3 download. Kind of wierd listening to it. Not sure I can get used to the idea of listening to an album that I can't physically own. I think my next one download will be Ugly Kid Joe. (Yes, I still listen to Metal).
  • Movies

    I saw Taken recently -- now that was a pretty kick ass movie. Liam Nesson is pretty quick for his age. Gran Torino was an all right movie. I don't consider Clint Eastwood as your lovable type of actor, but in this movie, I'll make an exception.
  • Television

    Right now, my wife and I are watching Harper's Island. The first half was pretty nifty so far, but I'm not sure I'm liking the direction of the second half. I'm happy Burn Notice came back. Royal Pains is a new one my wife and I find entertaining. I can't wait for Eureka to get back.
  • Books

    I don't have much time for books with the The Cynic. taking so much of my reading time. Right now, I am sneaking in an old Johnathan Kellerman book -- When the Bough Breaks.

About me:

..

I am a Senior Software Engineer at a Long Island Software company in snowy New York State. Hooray Giants! (Okay -- we all know I don't like footbal)I am a database administrator/developer living in sunny Southern California, an absolutely wonderful place to live I might add. I also am co-owner of The Cynic Online magazine and several other nefarious money destroying schemes, an allotment of deeply heinious seemingly bottomless sinkholes of red ink that I someday plan to fill with gobs and gobs of money. Until then, I am working in a satisfying position for exceedingly competent management (in case you ever read my profile, boss, you know who I am talking about). I am also one of those few lucky bastards who are happily married and living a fairly sane life. There are only two things that are difficult about living in California: there are too many people on the streets and working indoors when it is usually spectacular outside.Hey -- I live in in NY now so CA is now problem free.


The real John (don't you love how crazy people talk about themselves in the third person?) is currently no longer a database administrator/developer at a major California securities company.

He is happily married to his wonderful wife Marisela and with her runs the online magazine The Cynic Online Magazine which has been in operation since 2000.

In addition to being happily married, John is a proud Mustang owner, having recently purchased a 2006 Mustang of the V-6 Deluxe variety complete with California Limited package.

PS: The children below aren't mine, they are my nieces -- aren't they adorable?

Who I'd like to meet:

.. The Pope -- I can't say why exactly other than it would be kind of neat to tell people I know the Pope.

Other than that, I have no desire to meet anyone famous, but if you aren't famous and we bump into each other on the street sometime, maybe we can have a cup of coffee. In seperate cups of course, I don't where you've been.



BTW: If you are from the 95 graduating class from Rutherford, you can find people at http://rutherford.myevent.com/.
