Ok, so sue me for going by my online name. If you want, you can email me and ask me for my real name. No Big deal there.
My Main Goal in life is to be happy with whatever I do. Trust me when I tell you this, you can never be truly happy, or make someone else happy unless you are happy with yourself. It took me a long time to realize it, but it is true.
I am just a guy born, raised, and currently living in a small Detroit suburb (Michigan, that is). I was a swimmer and baseball player in my youth. I attended the hallowed halls of Eastern Michigan University for my Bachelor's Degree in Music Education. I am now teaching Band in a nearby suburb. Music, my students, and computers are my life
I am into other things too. I am taking kickboxing classes to get myself into shape. I am in a concert band to help me get my performance fix out of the way.
I am a HUGE Chicago Cubs
I guess
that will let everyone know how much of a lost cause I am. But the
Cubbies just have an aura about them that keeps me loyal to them.
My favorite movie actor has to be the big green lizard from Tokyo known as Godzilla. I just love all the hokiness surrounding the movies and all the bad dubbing. Makes me laugh all the time.
Speaking of laughing, one of my favorite television shows, now on only
sporatically, is Cartoon Planet. Some guys over at the Cartoon Network
had an idea to take clips of the old Space Ghost cartoon, but them in the
modern day, give them new voices, and place them in hilarious situations.
I just love the arrogance of Space Ghost
, the evil ways of Zorak,
and the stupidity of Brak.
And the music they have on the
show keeps me rolling on the floor laughing for hours. I am SOOOOOO happy that they have come out with the Brak show. What a way for me to laugh. I love it and I hope it doesn't get cancelled or switched to a ridiculous time.
I guess my view of comedy comes from my comedic hero, Mr. Bill Murray. This mans straight man , but very demented and dry humor has constantly entertained me. I will stop whatever I am doing and watch whatever movie or show of his is on television at any time.
I view myself as someone who is very old fashioned. I grew up watching many old movies with my mom, and I think I go many of my ideas and point of view from them. I am also very entranced in the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. I would have loved the opportunity to be a Knight in Arthur's Court. Ok, you may think this to be weird, but you will see a link to a virtual reality world below. One of the coolest things that has happened is that I have be come a knight in that world. I would love to recommend it to you and tell you to join, but there are soo many problems with it right now that a boycott is going on.
