Clayton's Interests
|
| General | Computer Science, particularly Information Assurance/Security.
Cars, particularly German, particularly BMW and particularly early 80s.
Building anything. Anything at all. | | Music | I like very small amounts of a wide variety of genres. I'm particular and irritatingly elitist about music, even though I listen to a ton of crappy stuff myself. Some favorites made intentionally diverse and in no particular order: Depeche Mode, the Cure, Bad Religion, Dead Kennedys, XTC, Morbid Angel, VNV Nation, Funker Vogt, Front Line Assembly, Atari Teenage Riot, Ec8or, Barry McGuire, Crosby Stills & Nash, Simon & Garfunkel, pre-lame Elton John.
Recently, I have been listening to almost nothing but Apoptygma Berzerk, Zeromancer and The Smiths. PS. Despite the theories of some, I am really not gay. | | Movies | A bunch of really pretentious stuff. A bunch of really lame stuff. A bunch of stuff in between. I do not like watching sad movies because... because. [I will not admit to weeping like a woman, to paraphrase John Proctor in The Crucible.] | | Television | Arrested Development, Hustle, Law & Order, Lost, Veronica Mars, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, The Office, Nature shows, C-SPAN, Some other stuff I would never, ever admit to watching. | | Books | 18th century Russian Lit (Dostoevsky rules all), Chuck Palahniuk, Kurt Vonnegut, Donald Barthelme, Richard Brautigan, Umberto Eco. Kid stuff: Harry Potter, Series of Unfortunate Events. Guilty pleasure chick stuff: Janet Evanovich and Jennifer Crusie. | | Heroes | In chronological order of existence: Epictetus, Galileo, Voltaire, Abe Lincoln, Ghandi, my dad's dad, my dad... oh, and Batman, Tyler Durden, Tender Branson and Mickey Bricks. |

About me:
I try to be as self-contradictory as possible because I love paradox, but anybody that would do that is an ass.
I want to have a job that I can't discuss outside of work. Ideally, and in an unordered list, I would like to work for: the FBI, the NSA, a bank/multinational corporation big enough to have their own security specialists, or a security analysis firm (mine or someone elses). Basically the closest I could get to James Bond without anybody shooting at me (I hope).
I am a vegetarian because I don't have the right to eat meat. That's my decision. I don't care if it's not yours.
I build my own computers. I build my own Linux distributions. I hate driving cars with power steering or automatic transmissions. I want to build my own car from the frame up. I want to distill my own ethanol to fuel that car. This is all because I firmly believe that I make better decisions than machines (or at least I don't want to have to blame the machine if something gets screwed up. Also, I have a selective obsessive/compulsive control problem.
I went from all-black-wearing-counter-culture-kid (for like 8 years) to trendy-prep in 4 days. The looks on people's faces was seriously hilarious.

Who I'd like to meet:
People that are not boring or operating on a serious intellectual deficiency. Those who are capable of typing with reasonable grammar and punctuation get special treatment. Bonus points go to decent spellers.
