I'm an avid swimmer, a good dancer, and and excellent listener. I'm really interested in Radio and Television production, photography, the history and mistakes in roads and highways, "What happened to Standard Oil?", and I love Macintosh Computers.
I also read a lot, usually Sci-Fi, but a few Autobiographies have passed through my book shelf over the years, "I AM Spock" and "To the Stars: Star Trek's Mister Sulu". I also have a fascination with the differences between the US and the UK.
I also do a lot of work on Wikipedia: The Free, Open Source Encyclopedia. And do a lot of Photoshopping.
I'm also podcasting the Rick Emerson Show at The Tegian Zone.
1) The Beatles - "I celebrate their entire collection." If you don't know who the Beatles are, Kill yourself NOW!
2) The Beach Boys - "So much happiness, from such hell." Check out Brian Wilson's new record 'Smile'.
3) Johnny Cash - Incredible Voice, Wonderful Stories, and a torrid Life.
4) The Barenaked Ladies - "Canadians Rock!" Some of the most inventive music in years.
5) Eminem - "White Black Boy" Many of his lyrics are much more real after spending several years in Michigan.
6) Jay-Z - "The Grey Album Rocks" Really, it does. Mix the emotion and street knowledge of Jay-Z with The Beatles, Genius.
7) "Weird Al" Yankovic - "Best Parodist Ever" What more needs to be said?
8) Warp 11 - "Best TV Based Band Ever" Nothing but Star Trek related Songs.
9) A*Teens - "Abba for the next generation" Really, 'Sugar Rush' ("I've got a sweet tooth, and a taste for you." Best Line Ever) and 'Halfway Around the World'.
10) O-Zone - "3 Romanians with killer voices" Dragostea Din Tei is the best song ever, especially in the original Romanian.

I'm a Master Mason, have been so since November 2001. I do far too much dreaming, primarily about computers, creating TV shows and Movies, and Women. I have a Captain Kirk mug on my desk, not because I'm obsessed, but because it was a present from a dear friend, and I need a place to store all my pens.
I'm a die-hard Mac computer user. When asked why I use Mac, I ask why the person who asked uses what they use. I chose to use Macintosh, I was not forced into using it, as most have been with Windows. I play high quality games, thankfully most are either made only for Mac or are ported.
I watch far too much Television, but thanks to my TiVo, it no longer controls when I live life, as I can go back at any time to see what I missed.
I listen to a radio show from Portland, OR (Rick Emerson) most of the time, and end up creating podcasts of said show for those on dial-up who live outside of the area. I enjoy talk radio, and find most music radio annoying. My exposure to new music is currently limited to bumpers on the above shows, what is on in a restaurant, or what I hear when I get tired of my iPod.
I have many passions, but I work to ensure that none of them overwhelm my life. It is a delicate balancing act, but all appears to be going well.
Eugene "Rod" Rodenberry, William Shatner, Robert Duncan-McNeil, Scott Bakula, Steve Jobs, Johnathan Ive, Jim Cramer, Kevin Smith, Rosario Dawson, and Trey Parker & Matt Stone.
