Terry's Interests
General
I like movies, TV, comics, and the other kind of books (ya know, the ones with pictures.)
Music
Johnny Cash (especially the 5 CD set "Unearthed"), Prince, The Cure, The Cult, The Bravery, Hayseed Dixie, Matis Yahu, Elvis Presley, James Blunt, Lauryn Hill, Richard Cheese, Jason Mraz, Eminem, U2, Gnarls Barkley, David Bowie, George Strait, Flight of the Conchords, The Beatles, Garth Brooks, Sting, TQ, and lots of other stuff.
Movies
A lot. Really.
Television
"Arrested Development." Go buy it on DVD. NOW!!! You won't regret it. "Buffy The Vampire Slayer", "Angel", "Firefly". All from Joss Whedon. He's a genius. Believe me. "AquaTeen Hunger Force" are chaotic and beautiful in its low-budget animation, late night, violent, pointless insanity. NBC's Thursday night comedy block is wonderful. "My Name Is Earl" is delightful and sweet. "Scrubs" is a great show, but it's no "Arrested Development" but it'll do since AD is cancelled. (Side note-- I'm really getting into "Scrubs" more and more thanks to Comedy Central having it on for like three hours a day. I wish they would pony up the dough to get more series like "Scrubs" rather than showing MadTV for six hours a day. Sorry... That was a little off topic.) "The Office" is... well, it's so real and awkward and funny that it's given me actual physical pain while watching. In a good way. And I'm starting to really like "30 Rock" in spite of Tina Fey. Everything that Tracy Morgan and Alec Baldwin do is gold. I also recommend "Smallville", "Justice League Unlitmited" and "Match Game 76".I'm sure there's more I'll think of later, so stay tuned.
"Heroes" is my favorite thing on TV right now. The pacing is perfect and the acting gets better and better each week. Masi Oka is delightful. Ali Larter is both frail and scary. And throwing Malcolm McDowell and Eric Roberts into the mix makes it crazier good-er.
I enjoyed CMT's Gone Country. Words can't describe how wonderful it was watching a sleep-walking Bobby Brown very nearly pee on Dee Snider from Twisted Sister.
Books
"Sandman" Vols 1 through 5 by Neil Gaiman. The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis. "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" books. I'm wading slowly through the complete works of William Shakespeare. "The Zombie Survival Guide" by Max Brooks. Just finished Johnny Cash's autobioigraphy, "Cash by Johnny Cash." "Invincible" by Robert Kirkman. And lots of other comics... I'm a geek.
And I'm just starting the "Harry Potter" books. I've seen the first three movies, but I think I'm going to hold off watching the rest until I've finished all the books.
I'm jumping around in book called "What is a Man?" It's an analysis of different aspects of manhood from the works of people like Chaucer, William Shakespeare, Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King, Kurt Cobain, and a slew of others I can't recall. It's an engaging, thought-provoking read. I could read the "What is a man?" soliloquy from Hamlet over and over and over. I may have it put on my tombstone.
Heroes
Johnny Cash, William Shatner, Jack Kirby, Joss Whedon, and the list of Lee's: Stan Lee, Jim Lee, Jason Lee, Jason Scott Lee, Lee Meriwether, Jae Lee, Lee Van Cleef, Geddy Lee, Tommy Lee, Ang Lee, Jet Li, Christopher Lee, Jerry Lee Lewis, Lee Marvin, Jamie Lee Curtis, Portia Di Rossi, Lee Majors, and Tommy Lee Jones.
Looking for an artist for a couple of different graphic novel ideas. They are very different from one another. One is a surreal, comedic semi-autobiography. The other is a political thriller with superheroes and slightly satirical undertones.
About me: Help Terry get to the San Diego Comicon International. Donate!!
I was born in 1979. which basically means that the 80s were a wonderful blur to me. I like ninjas, comics, my black leather jacket, good tv, bad music, dirty jokes, math, spiders, and cats.
i dislike rednecks, little dogs, rednecks, ladybugs, rednecks, and most teenagers.
my favorite scar is on my left leg and is a beer-related injury.
i'm in a serious relationship with my number 1. she's super hot and funny and way smarter than me, which basically means that i have no idea why she'd bother with me, but i won't argue with her about it. i've recently moved to kansas city, mo to be closer to her. i know approximately 7 people in this state, so if there's any nerds out there in the KCMO area that would like to talk nerdy things, gimme a holler.

Who I'd like to meet: People. Mostly just smart, smart-ass people with varying opinions.Interesting people who know who Joss Whedon is and still think Han should have shot first. People who don't mind talking politics as long we all continue to realize that all politicians are crooks... except maybe Senator John McCain. People who understand that it's okay to like bad movies. (my favorite bad movie of all time is... well, why don't you ask me?) People who are odd, but not people that are odd just for the sake of being odd. People who are odd for the sake of being themselves. People who believe in... whatever, I don't care what. Just believe. People that love to laugh. People that won't make fun of me for loving MOULIN ROGUE. Intense, passionate people. Moral and creative people. Artists. Musicians. Writers. Creators. People that live to change the world around them. People that make me want to be a better me. Also, the greatest living actor in the world, William Shatner.
Artist on Artist John Cusack - Diablo Cody ..
That is so not funny.. It's arthritis of the spine, it is not the same as RA. They tested for that, and it was negative. Now you - stop being mean or you're gonna be first when I finally snap.
Well maybe some of these other friends could let me know when they're coming up and we could go together... You know I can't make that far of a trip alone. Who would I talk to?? Seriously, T - what were you thinking?
It's about damn time you got glasses. You've been blind for years... Do they help with your headaches any? You need to post some pics with your glasses! And yeah, Isaac would pretend to pass out every now and then when he was in my lap. But he snapped to when I asked Paul where I could pitch him. Also, I need the exact dates for everything going on with the wedding so I can put in requests at work.. like the sooner, the better. :)
So Paul and Isaac were in the store today, and Ike was sitting in my lap and when he realized that I was friends with his Uncle T he said that I should tell you that you're his favorite uncle. Aww! You should call and talk to him.. He misses you. And also, check on Am... She's been really sick.
Did you know that they're having a rock/paper/scissors tournament in town tonight?? They have a tournament for that! I'm so confused. Nothing makes sense anymore!
Daddy is doing a lot better. I went into town after work today and he met me for dinner - and he ordered grilled salmon, rice, and broccoli. He tried to get a bacon cheeseburger first, but I threatened to tell Mama. Also, I think he may realize that they're really not kidding about the diet stuff. I don't think he wants a sixth stent...
