I like playing any type of sport (preferably tennis mostly), hanging out with friends, watching movies or anime, playing video games, going for walks around the lakes here, or hitting up a bar with my buds.
Check it out! I got to interview with two media websites for the Fullmetal games I produced :): Degs' Nintendojo Interview and Degs' Ain't It Cool News Interview.
.
I like everything from heavy metal like Sevendust, to punk like MXPX and Green Day, to classical music like Beethoven. I can take country in small doses and I absolutely hate death metal and hardcore rap. If I want to hear noise, I'll go set up my lawn chair next to the interstate thank you. At the bottom are some videos from some of my favorite bands posted by other members.
Movies
I'm a typical guy. I love action movies and geek flicks (like Lord of the Rings). I also don't mind the occasional sappy movie (like Love Actually and Wimbledon), but I have to be in the mood. Go ahead and rib me about it, because again I could give a rat's ass about what you think of me ;). It comes down to the fact that I pretty much watch anything, but I stay away from realistic horror flicks; I admit openly that some just bother me. Currently I'm into anything foreign that's from Asia (i.e. anime, kurosawa films, etc).
Here are a couple cool videos of Fullmetal Alchemist that myspace members made (one of my favorite series). Once you start watching episodes of this deep and even dark anime, you'll wonder why you missed out (and yes you can watch them in English or Japanese ;) ).

Television
I don't watch TV much. I find most shows now are crap, and are spinning bad messages. That and I prefer not to watch garbage. I will watch the news, "Boston Legal", and "Lost" when I'm home though.
Books
Anything R.A. Salvatore does. His Forgotten Realms books are addictive and spark the intuitive and creative parts of the reader's brain. I find books that aren't intellectually stimulating as boring and not worth reading. Especially since adults get less and less free time as we get older after all.
Heroes
I don't really have a hero. The closest thing would probably be my mother. Why do you ask? Well considering she was put through 4 years of divorce hell and still raised my brother, sister, and I well, that pretty much takes the cake. I also have people that I greatly respect, like Kevin Garnett, John Randle, and Kevin Sorbo.
Anyone in the public eye that can still put up a great image as a role model for younger kids, has my respect. I've also met all three and have talked to them for a good period of time (I sold KS a printer and didn't even realize it was him until the end; duh I'm a dumbass LOL). They are pretty cool guys in my book, and are pretty humble too. It's nice to see that not all celebrities are impersonable pricks with inflated egos.

Probably Vin Diesel's best role other than in The Fast and the Furious.
One of the best cult classics of all time.
Besides the Vampires, the only other thing that sucks about Hellsing is that it's so short.

About me: I'm just about as laid back and easy going as they come. Those that know me would say I'm one of the most random and goofy people they know, but they seem to like being around me for some reason :p. In fact, I take pride in the fact that I've got a great sense of humor, as well as the intellectual capacity to have good conversations and make witty combacks. One thing you'll find is that I am very comfortable with myself and I say what's on my mind.
I'm proud to have a lot of friends that care about me and that I care about. My family is also tightly knit and most of my immediate and extended family are in the Twin Cities. Most don't believe me when I tell them, but I have no problem admitting that I like a few geeky things.
Yes I play D&D (Vin Diesel does to, so what of it LOL?), I love playing vids, watching anime, and I make video games as a career. I've always said, "Take me as I am, because I feel no sense in hiding myself ;)" (that and I don't give a rat's ass about what narrow minded people think of me :p). To offset that other side of me, I love playing or watching sports, going out to bars or clubs, hanging out with my friends, and spending time at the many lakes here and such.
I've traveled to many parts of the world and I don't plan ..ping there. So far I have been to Australia, Japan, and Italy (where our St. Thomas choir sang at midnight mass in St. Peter's (Vatican)). I plan on going to Thailand, China, Scotland, and Ireland also.

Who I'd like to meet: Cool people that are into hanging out, playing vids, and/or watching anime. Why do you ask? Because I have a slew of friends that are into going out and such. It'd be nice to have people to hang out with that just want to kick back, have a a beer and veg out from time to time. Obviously going out is always a bonus at times too. If you're an old friend or acquaintance from my past, why the hell haven't you contacted me yet ;)? For god's sake I don't bite LOL. Well....not hard at least :p.

God New Years party bud:) Sucks you've been feeling crappy. they changed my schedule to Fri Sat off now so maybe that will work better if we decide to pick up the game again. Give me a shout about your schedule this week also.
Hey stranger...I haven't seen you in awhile, you still alive and kickin? You and Darci have to come visit me and Harliegh soon. Why do you have so many Beastie Boys videos on your page? I loathe the Beastie boys!!! GRRR...........
I heard about your eye. Try not to wear old makeup. Once you buy some new eyeliner and mascara it should clear it right up. Sorry you can't make it. I'll keep Darci safe. Actually the only time she hurts herself is when she makes fun of me falling out of the canoe. I'm sure you heard the story.
