    Mike's Interests
GeneralCreating Music. Playing my guitars, my drum machines and sequencers. Writing and Recording. Playing shows is sorta fun, but the true payoff to me is a sweet disc full of tunes.

My biggest hobby is reading. I read voraciously, constantly. I always want to learn more.

Sometimes I even read books about people I don't like, or from viewpoints that disgust me. I recently (October) finished
The Conscience of a Liberal
which was very much like hurling my guts out of my ears. But I finished it. It was like eating your peas when you were a little boy. It did open my eyes to the class warfare politics practiced by those on the "left" side of American Political Discourse.


I just finished these two (January). Both were amazing books.
The Truth About Hillary
Blacklisted by History

I am currently reading (meaning that there is a bookmark in them, or they are scattered over the house:
The Patriot's History of the United States
Panzer Tactics: German Small-Unit Armor Tactics in World War II
The Collapse of the Soviet Military
The Everything Learning Russian Book
Franklin Delano Roosevelt: Champion Of Freedom

I drive like Jehu.

There are only two kinds of people in the world, the ones I like (who use turn signals and stay far away from me in the right lane) and those marked for destruction (i.e. those unlucky enough to have my headlights weaving and flashing in their rearview mirrors)
I enjoy playing paintball, other varieties of shooting, and long walks in the park. I like kittens and Italian Food. What is this? A Personal Ad?
MusicMusic is one of the greatest things in life. Besides reading, it's all I ever do.

TelevisionSimpsons, X-Files, House. Most television sucks. I think I like House because I'd like to be like him. Smart, witty. I think I just need a better writer for the story of my life.

About me:
Wait for me and I'll return, only wait very hard. Wait when you are filled with sorrow as you watch the yellow rain. Wait when the wind sweeps the snowdrifts. Wait in the sweltering heat. Wait when others have stopped waiting, forgetting their yesterdays. Wait even when from afar no letters come for you. Wait even when others are tired of waiting. Wait for me and I'll return, but wait patiently. Wait even when you are told that you should forget. Wait even when my mother and son think I am no more. And when friends sit around the fire drinking to my memory Wait and do not hurry to drink to my memory too. Wait for me and I'll return, defying every death. And let those who do not wait say that I was lucky. They will never understand that in the midst of death You with your waiting saved me. Only you and I will know how I survived: It was because you waited as no one else did. -- Konstantin Simonov [LOVEMYFLASH]

Thanks for swinging by to listen and for the comment on CoGoths. We should have the CD's done soon. I need to catch a BIW show soon and see you all with the new drummer, I've heard good things. How's everyone been doing? I talked to Forest a little bit recently about venues/shows and stuff. We'll definitely have to line some stuff out soon.
