A little about yourself?

#82
Married 10 years on the 18th, and turn 29 on the 19th. I will be in Cozumel that day, Grand Cayman the day before, and Montego Bay the day before that. In other words, we're taking a cruise for our anniversary.

Three wonderful kids. Two girls and a boy. 7, 6, and 2.

Love Disney. Heading to WDW in December.

6'5 225#.

Love to fish. Usually stock tanks for bass.

Hack woodworker, but really enjoy it. Also build effect pedals. And enjoy setting up instruments.

Most of my bass gear seems to be short run or short lived stuff. Kinda weird really.

Sleep too little and drink too much

Computer Engineer undergrad

Just landed my "ideal" job for a web start-up with excellent pay (oxymoron?)

I've been banned from TB on 3 separate occasions.

I have two motorcycles that are the same model but not year. One is race-only the other is street-only.

My dog has just learned that begging with a puppy-dog-face will get him treats.

I've dated the same girl for 5+ years and marriage seems imminent.

I'm a devout Deadhead
I have every ABBA album and listen to them regularly (what's the second thing you should know about music?)
I have a dog named Ellie who is my favorite being in all the world
My musical training is in jazz
I mainly compose computer music
Eroica is my favorite of Beethoven's symphonies
I use a Droid X
The Judge was my teacher's teacher
I consider TV to be the great american art form
The 2004 version of Candide is the funniest thing I have ever seen
Preceding that, the title belonged to the Richard Burton version of Hamlet
Stardust Memories is my favorite of Woody Allen's movies
I hate Mozart's music
I'm a huge TNG fan and have seen all but two episodes (and yes, I'm one of the people that knows all of the inconsistencies and contradictions that occurred throughout the seven seasons)
I play the ukulele rarely, but well
I love Evgeni Kostitsyn's music
I write a blog nobody reads (though you all should!)
I have strong opinions about how sounds should and shouldn't be mixed, compressed, and EQed

Which should be more than you ever needed or wanted to know about me!

I'm losing hair at a fast rate.

I have excessive eyebrows,I comb them,feed 'em,love 'em.:eyebrow:

I'm 27 and I'm still in college,trying to graduate.I study computer engineering.

I love muay-thai/kick boxing.Did it when I was younger,gave up after loosing a piece of my teeth.Figured there are free ways to get myself kicked in the teeth.

I'm at a state in my life where I admitted my addiction of alcohol and started working on it.

I smoke like a chimney.

I'm 60 kilos with beer belly.

I love beer.

I have a good sense of humor shadowed by my pessimistic side.

I'm smart,also could be defined as good looking.

I have a really really bad luck with woman.

5'10, 165. 16 years old, will be 17 on May 3rd.
Play upright bass as well as bass guitar, guitar, can-jo, and a little piano.
Obsessed with Dr.Who (The new ones, to many peoples disappointment. I'm getting some of the old ones from netflix soon though.)
Been playing Super Scribblenauts a lot recently.
After a long rough patch, I recently broke up with my girlfriend of nearly 3 years, after finding an incredible girl I have so much in common with who shares my love of reptiles and other animals. Things are going great so far, and while i'm bummed my ex and I didn't work out, I haven't been happier in my short life.
