Interests

  • General

    Traveling is a major passion. In the past few years our family has visited Brazil, Argentina, Peru, El Salvador, Guatemala, Belize, Costa Rica, England, France and Hawaii. I'm also lucky that I get to visit lots of interesting geological sites for "work". When I'm home I like to follow USC and Ohio State football and for REAL football I support Liverpool, Manchester United (yes, both) in the English Premier League and I've recently adopted Flamengo as my favorite team from South America. I make it to a few LA Galaxy and Anaheim Angels games a year as well.
  • Music

    Music is a big part of my life though I've gotten away from playing it much myself lately. I'm a big fan of the Coachella Festival and I try to make it there for at least one day most years. Some of the music I love includes Radiohead, U2, Pearl Jam, Jane's Addiction, Stone Temple Pilots, Foo Fighters, Cracker, White Stripes, Rage Against the Machine, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Metallica, Neil Young, David Bowie, Elvis Costello, Genesis/Peter Gabriel, Jeff Beck, King Crimson, X, Black Flag, Dead Kennedys, Clash, Dave Matthews Band, Moby, Chemical Brothers, Zero 7, Air, Sigur Ros, Mogwai
  • Movies

    Some random favorites would include: Pulp Fiction, the Matrix, Fight Club, the Princess Bride, Lost in Translation, Blade Runner, Vanilla Sky, Groundhog Day, High Fidelity and pretty much anything made by Tim Burton, The Coen Brothers, Stanley Kubrick or Hayo Miyazaki. I will also watch and enjoy nearly any film containing aliens, zombies, or vampires, no matter how bad it is, as long as lots of stuff gets "blowed up real good".
  • Television

    Reaper, Pushing Daisies, Heros, Mythbusters, Adult Swim, Flight of the Conchords, Entourage, Dexter, Firefly (best show ever)
  • Books

    I'm currently reading _Coyote Blue_ by Christopher Moore. Some of my favorite authors include Nick Hornby, John Irving, Kurt Vonnegut, William Gibson, Christopher Moore and Carl Hiaasen.

About me:

I'm a science nerd, of the geological variety, and the best part of that is getting out in nature and camping. I also enjoy playing guitar but never had a whole lot of talent for it, even though I had some good times playing in bands over the years. Coaching my daughters soccer teams and watching the Fox Soccer Channel have gotten me back into the beautiful game recently. I'm finding that age does matter on the playing field but I love it in spite of the pain. What I love most though is my family.
