I'm not a partier. I don't go out clubbing. I enjoy being
around people and having a good time, but I don't feel the need to drink or
do drugs to enjoy myself. That doesn't mean I don't drink, and I have no
problem with people who can responsibly and safely have a good time any way
they choose.
Here is a list of the things I like, and any related
material on them.
- Amusement Parks - Somehow, someone suckered me into going
on a roller coaster (the stand-up coaster Vortex at Great America in
Santa Clara, California) and I've been a
fan ever since. Park photos are available in the travel section.
- Coaster Fanatics
- view my ride list and find out a bunch about roller coasters.
- Theme Park Review - Robb and Elissa have the best amusement park
website out there, because it's personal, comprehensive and funny! I
wish I had the money they did to go away as often as they do.
- Roller Coaster Database - details on every roller coaster
current, coming, and gone.
- The Flat Joint - hasn't
been updated since May 2006, but a great source for rides that
aren't roller coasters.
- Travel - I travel any time I can - it's always good to get
away from the daily grind of my job.
See my travel website!
There is a vast amount of content.
- Photography - if you've been to my travel site you know I
like to take pictures. See the photo gallery (link to the left) for my
favorite shots.
- Movies - I've seen
more than 2000 movies.
My favorites:
- Almost Famous
- Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (the original one)
- Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob
Strike Back
- Music - With well over
17,000 tracks, legally obtained, my music collection contains
everything from Beethoven to Snoop Dogg. I love going to
concerts, too. I didn't think I would, but the energy from the crowd
and the involvement in the music is hard to match when you're at an
event. The main page has a link to a list of concerts I have
attended and want to see.
Favorite artists:
- Ben Folds
- Madonna (pre-Music)
- Queen
- The Beatles
- Baseball - I've been playing since 1989 (though I
don't play on a team any more). I assistant coach at the high school
where I teach, I see about 20 games a year between the Braves, nearby
minor league teams, and teams where I'm traveling to. I also have a
baseball card project I've been working on since 2003. Photos of
stadiums I've been to since 2005 are available in the travel section.
