Well my first is always art and creativity. Its the only thing that I have found which actually stops time. To slow it down and trying to defy gravity I like mountain biking and surfing. I am a huge fan of surealism and abstract arts. I surf Rusty and ride Cannondale, I have surfed several hurricanes on the East Coast and the majority of the West Coast Coast line. I have ridden most of the mountains, trails in and around San Diego and Orange County. I used to be a raver so I am a huge fan of music and dancing. I am also a typical Aries (no talk, all go)... READY.... SET.... GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Music
Everything but country and bubble gum punk... I guess that is a bit too generic so currently on the "walkman" I have... AIC, America, T.Amos, Apex Twins, D. Ash, Badly Drawn Boy, S. Barrett, Bauhaus, Beastie's, Beck, BAD, Bjork, Black Sabbath, Chemical Brothers, The Clash, CCR, The Cult, The Cure, Daft Punk (early), Dead Can Dance, Depeche Mode, The Doors, Faith no More, Fat Boy Slim, Gorillaz, Grateful Dead, B. Harper, J. Hendrix, Iggy Pop... ok I could go on, but seriously, its getting boring.
Movies
Pie, Run Lola Run, Clock Work Orange, Se7en, the really intense drama stuff. Lately I have been watching a lot of 911 conspiracies (Loose Change, 911 Truth), some philosophy and documentary style movies
Television
Currently I am conducting a sociological experiment on myself by not watching or even turning on my TV for a week. So far I have found that I have an abundance of time... odd huh?
Books
The Book of Nod, Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Human all too Human, The Book of the Dead, Tao of Pooh, Mind Games, Think on these Things. I owe a lot to Cesar's Way (dog training book) and for work its all about the 2007 California Building Code... YEA!
About me: I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
I've had $1000 dinners, I've been homeless. Ive been surrounded by friends, and been alone. I've been beat down and told I am not good enough, but I have yet to give up.
Who I'd like to meet: The key in the evolutionary step between ape and man, the person who has a map to the garden of Eden, Jerry, that strange girl that I see waiting for the bus each morning, members of the Church of Satan, those people who are scared of being scared (that would be too fun), that guy who created the duck billed platypus, the ice cream man who works the South Central district, Heather, some of those war mongering Canadians we always hear about, aliens, Sponge Bob's pet snail, Dali, anyone who can connect the fall and rise of the Sun with the Son, people who believe in faith but have no faith in hope, singers (I envy you since I have no voice), fellow participants in the world of archi-torture, anyone who is both repulsed and fascinated by politics, people who deny that coffee is a drug, persons who are anti marijuana but pro prozac, and anyone who is a member of a tribe in encinitas.
