I am smart enough to know better, but dumb enough to enjoy it anyways.
I am a world-traveling bicycle technician. Your country's pedestrains are no match for my velocipedal prowess. My film school Komrades and I will bring about a glorious revolution to your bourgeois cinema.
I know a little about a lot, and I know when I don't. I am skilled with my hands. My eye sees detail, but my mind sees the world in a different way than you do. My goal is to show you what I see.
I like Japan and things Japanese, good food after a hard work out, laughing out loud in public, an elegant mechanism, straight talkers, and music that becomes the soundtrack to my day.
I live in the Pacific Northwest, though I hate the cold and rain.

Tried to follow you out,
But I did not know where you'd be leading on,
And you might think people don't live through being dead wrong.
Well I guess that your parents must have raised a themselves a strictly pious daughter,
Hey Mark.. had a thought about your video... how about a seattle intro video... the wonders of seattle, etc. here is an example.. http://www.dallascvb.com/media/ click on My Dallas Video in the left bar.
i started celebrating a whole day earlier, just because you mentioned it. hopefully when you read this, you'll be well through the first nasty ninety and then some. godspeed you bike emperor!
Oh another call for memories.....lets see there are 9 months of Florida memories but I'll post this one. Remember when we were on Hurricane Ridge in the Olympic Mts and slid down the snow slide area by lying down on our backs on our jackets. Kind of like a turtle on its back. We measured each run in terms of "fast", "really fast" and "monkey speed." Ahh yes who needs proper equipment to have fun.
