HEY, glad u could make it.
So who am I? Good question, who am I? Well...
Born in 1971,in Va., grew up in a little
urban/suburbia 4-5 miles from DC. Married my
beautiful asian bride in 93, FATHER OF ONE. I've had many jobs, in several fields, but never had what one would call a
career. My most recent job, is working in a lab,
at a Vet. Hospital.
Love music, have a silly amount of CD's, play the bongos
, and sing a little. Like most all art, draw a little
and have worked with pastels for several years.
Not too computer savvy, had an old c64, back in the day,
remember some basic language, learned a little
DOS. Now all you HAVE to know is 'point-and-click' to
get around the Web.
Very much an 80's child, been
known to party a little too much. Love to go out dancing.
Been to clubs in Baltimore, Chicago, NYC, Mauai, Oahu, but my favorite clubs have always been in DC. Like to be in the
woods, to camp. Give me roaring fires under starry
skies, over TV and football any day.
Always get told that I have a 'good heart' by people
that I look up to. Sometimes my pre-judgements surprise
me, but on a whole, I like to think I give everybody a
fair shake. Anyway...
My new thing is working out. I try to do 30min a day, for almost a year now, and am slowly building a small gym in our basement.
Folks that's pretty much it, Me in a nutshell.
Perhaps I'll expand on this at a later date, but for
now, this will have to do.
Good to meet you.
EVERYBODY!!!...IT'S A BOY!!!!!!!!

Music section, lyrics, personal reviews of
favorite songs and albums. Concert info from time to
time.
There is a
beautiful path, winding through The Garden.
At it's end a jewel encrusted gate of silver and gold.
Studded with as many pearls as there are stars in the
sky.
In your hand, the key.
Poetry Corner, verse w/no tune, some of mine, some
friends, some famous folk, some faceless writers.
You find a quiet little grove,
in a lush hidden nook.
There are several people lying on the cool mossy ground.
Looking up at the sky,
they exchange wit, and verse, and rhyme.
Lie down beside them a while.
Visual Art section, featuring my favorite artists, as
well as my own works.
At the center of TheGarden,
is a fabulous Palace.
As you approach, you meet many servents.
To and fro they travel, doing Aladdin's bidding.
They encourage you on your way,
and befor long you are there.
TV & Movies, some of my favorite shows, and flicks
You wander down a long, half forgotten hall in the Palace.
A set of thick, wooden doors, opens at your touch.
Beyond a darkened viewing room.
The huge doors close behind you.
Find a good seat as light has begun to flicker across the screen.
