I am a home designer providing architectural services for remodels and new homes. My passion is to design environmentally friendly and energy efficent houses. (I just need clients that will actually take advantage of that)
My other business is teaching martial arts. I have studied several and recieved my Black Belt in American Open Style Karate from Jerry Piddington. However I run a business teaching historical western martial arts (swordplay mostly). http://duellatoria.com/ (see my blog for a resume) This is a convenient outlet that ties into other interest.
I am a member of the Elks Lodge, the OTO and the Order of Thelemic Knights. I have been involved in NROOGD and am connected to people in the Duridic community. I also serve on the board of directors for the Association for Historic Fencing.
My spiritual interests are eclectic to say the least. Thelemic at heart. My background is in Christianity, Shamanism, Hermetic systems and Oriental Mysticism. Underlying it all is a beliefe that all religions are just different cultural outlooks on spirituality.
Hobbies include middle eastern drumming and building armor. Film making, theatre, and anything creative. Need a stunt guy to do fight work in a film - I am your guy.
I scripted the battles, am co-fight director, stunt man and stunt/extras casting person for the film 'Spin of Fabrications' Trailer below

Wow... I just got your comment from June! I don't know what happened there! I am going to the wedding, and the anniversary for Gram and Gramps. I am not camping though, and I don't think much of the family is either. I believe most are making it into a day thing! :-) If you want to talk to him his number is 541-914-1661! Love you... see you this weekend!
So glad you guys made it out! Hopefully you got to meet a few of the other families that were there too! (I know names are hard! lol!) Got some cute pics you'll have to go look at too!
Hopefully we'll be seeing you and Brandon out and about again soon!
Wow! those guys were from OSU? That's awesome! Well.... you'll have to come out to one of our shows, I'd love to hear your opinion on us. I'm pretty sure you'd dig it. The baselines are funky, the songs are fun, and people usually end up dancing.
Glad you enjoyed it, Jeff. I like Marc's stuff a lot.
BTW, have you seen my website discussion board? It's a fun forum with a lot of interesting people from all over the world talking about the Rain Fall movie (recently wrapped shooting in Tokyo and NYC), the next book, writing, politics, single malt whisky, and anything else that strikes people's fancy, and we do a monthly chat on writing, too, so if you have a chance, stop by and say hello. It would be good to see you there...
you rock! showing up with fliers and all. That is so cool. I will let you know if I can afford a t-shirt as soon as I can. Hopefully I will be able to buy one that day. I am really looking forward to it (and to get a free motorcycle ride perhaps!)
I recently heard that most animals live 10-30x longer than the age of biological maturity. since humans aren't fully mature until @23 (it's a brain thing) you could live to be more than 230 years old! So quit messing with all those candles and go have some fun. Damn kids:)

Artists ground your selves because landlords aren't elves
Nymph's, Fairies, water fall battles, sword parries, and snow battles.
And a tree in Eden with apples distracts me from reality.
There's reality in imagination and imagination in reality.
I argue, not using a fallacy. I try to write books artistically-creatively.
Let's see what Alice see.
She'll grow up to be Eve or Aphrodite.
When it comes to goddesses and gods there is just one talking through my dreams letting me know he is not done. He calls me sun ‘cause I shine like one, telling me not let my light dim, and telling me to create like him because I am him.
And that's the reason for this slam.
AM I “I am”? I AM, I AM, I AM, I AM, I AM, I AM, I AM......
