Ron is a man of sweet hunger and I find that absolutely enticing!

Ron is Total Godhead.

He's cool.
He's silly.
He's smart.
He's musical. He likes games and anime.
Did I say he was funny?

Ron's my kind of geek.
He's one of my favorite people to play phone tag with.

AND I trust him near my computer.

Rock-and-Roll is the Bomb. Ron is the Detonator.

In the time i've known him i've had three mild strokes and one bruised knee as the result of his perpetual insistence on creating insanely ridiculous noise and/or humorous faces, causing great disruptive bouts of gut-achingly gregarious guffaws and brays, challenged only by the greatest of Gold Country Miners' Pack Mules.

plus, he gets my jokes... and that's sayin sumthin...

he ranks highly among the top ten most-brilliant people i know, not distinguishing between those with patents and those without.

he has a vast collection of black tshirts.

just don't ask him to pick a tie for you.

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." - from the book "Dune"

about me
Pisces Sun, Sag Moon, Cancer Rising, Venus in Aries, Mars in Scorpio.

I'm a geek, and I can prove it. Been working very hard on my music demo, and I'm interested in meeting other musicians (specially singers) to collaborate with. I have an obession with Anime, and am a self taught 3D animator. If you like the arty type, I'm your man. Love to cook, make a killer expresso, latte, capucchino. I appreciate intelligent people, have a natural aversion to stupid people.

Have been doing cross-platform computer consulting since 1997. My company is well established here in the Bay Area, and I'm trying to grow it again. Tried to grow during the end of the "dot bomb" era, with tragic results. This time I'm taking the growth process very slowly and making sure that I have the incoming business to support growing. We provide end to end outsource IT services to businesses all over Northern California.

Have a few pet film projects I've been working on for many years now, including a powerful and controversial documentary I'm in the process of finding funding to do. I am a 420 MMJ activist type so if you are offended by that, we shouldn't even bother.

Divorced, with a daughter that lives with mom in Folsom, CA. I'm 6'0" in decent shape for my age, strong of back, and not afraid to do heavy work. I have a fetish for clean laundry. Oh, and a few other fetishes as well hehe...

An ode to my own watery Piscean nature, and dedicated to the Pisces Tribe on tribe.net

Looks like I've been nominated in the Whale Calls catergory! Ironically, was in the middle of working on a HQ Audio Video Response to the original Whale Song video when I discovered the web page. Going to try and post the HQ version in the next few days, stay tuned.

Think this is a peoples choice type of award, so I'll update as soon as voting opens up.

I feel her stare and turn around
Love's gentle touch in a mornings breeze

She smiles sweetly and shines at me
The world is suddenly flooded with light

Dear woman why would you ever doubt
My love for you grows day to day

Why wonder when my feelings will change
You silly girl, they aren't so frail

When the stars fall, or the Moon fades
When the Sun burns out, or the seasons die

When tears fail, or when infatuation ends
When memories dim, and the fire burns low

This light... read more

Nick's Theme was originally intended for the documentary film For Medical Use Only www.youtube.com/watch but wasn't finished in time for the final cut of the movie.

The song is part of a trilogy of songs called Compassion Suite, songs about compassion for the sick and dying. It was inspired by my meetings with Nick Feldman the "hero" of the movie. Strapped to his wheelchair for life, he eloquently defends the patient position in the war against MMJ distribution here ... read more

Drained by your fear
Drained by your anxiety
Drained by your lack of strength
Drained by carrying you

Drained by your dramas
Drained by your self pity
Drained by your self loathing
Drained by your lack of faith

Drained by sadness
Drained by disappointment
Drained by expectations
Drained by lust

Drained by compassion
Drained by trust
Drained by my own needs
Drained and drained and drained some more...

Inner mounting flame
Sacred morning light
Serpentine fire dancing
I see red

Hot aura shining
Heat waves waving
Light bends and shimmering
I see red

Burning spirit singing
Serpentine flames hissing
Consumed in passion
I see red

Out of the clear blue sky
She walks into my world
Out of some forgotten dream
She recites forgotten verses

Her face sparks memories
Her presence like fire
I watch the flames
Fan my desires

An open door
A sudden breeze
So many visions
And memories

Thoughts race
Mind wanders
Spirit inspired
Magic happens...

There is madness in infinity

Watch the dancing flame - Learn to predict it's moves

Count the raindrops - All at once

Look at a grain of sand under a microscope - behold the star cycle mankind rode in on

Close your eyes and feel the air and your clothes touching your body (or just the air if you are nekkid)

Feel the power of all of the minds on this planet thinking at the same time.

Feel the calm of my little placid grotto...

Waves go rushing all around

Waves come rushing round again!

An ode to my own watery Piscean nature, and dedicated to the Pisces Tribe on tribe.net

The piece consists of a few different motifs about the whale, the song starts out with lonely whale calls from the depths echoing out into infinity, then changes to a floaty whale ballet theme section. The first guitar solo floats gently along the ocean tides. The second solo represents the rushing water as the whale dives deep into the depths.

Filmed live in The Green Room, here in my Secret Pleasure... read more

She sprang from the sea foam, delicate and intoxicating, beautiful. Standing on a sea shell, she brings love into the world with her sheer presence, so that mankind could experience the love of the gods, at least once in their mortal lives.

More beautiful than the shimmering ocean she rises from, her passion and desire would tame the world and make it her own. She would own the most powerful gods by domination over their hearts, no one could resist her charms.

Venus the goddess of cr... read more

Aries lowers his tired head. He puts aside his sword and shield, and lays down in the grass for a while to think. He had sacrificed everything in order to be victorious. Victory is life, he told himself. He had risked life and limb to conquer his foes, and he could taste the sweet nectar of triumph on his lips.

His conquests had taken him across the world and back again. His name was now legend, and the stories of his swift and terrible wrath struck fear in the mortal souls of his enemies.... read more

Gravity wells
Light is trapped
Cosmic power
Time bends
Vision inverted

Falling forever
Depth loses meaning
Down, Down
Deeper, lower
Darkness blankets

Consumed in shadows
Lights extinguished
Hope fails
Love dies
Empty, so empty...

The world is still
Elements converge

Eros is slain
By his own arrows

Aries falls
Upon his own sword

Venus is consumed
By her own passion

Neptune is swept away
By his own fury

Zeus is struck
By his own lightning

Saturn is lost
In his own details

Mercury sends
A message to no where

Pluto is blinded
By the inner light

All was still
As the gods made love

A touch from her hand

A look from her eyes

A smile from her lips

A memory of her laugh

A hug hello

A parting kiss

A shared moment you wish would never end

A thought of her that lasts all day

A touch from her soul that will last a lifetime

A forest fire that burns in your heart for her

The light that can never be extinguished

On wings of Mercury
She soars thru my mind

On golden light
Her golden smile

A glimpse in the moonlight
A shadow in the hall

Her eyes burn in mine
My heart starts to sing

A few sweet seconds
The Fleeting Muse

Her presence is like fire
Blood starts to burn

Her song leads me on
I follow entranced

Mind is a blur
Senses overload

Can't imagine being up so high
Can't look down I fear a fall

A trail of colors in the wind
Up above the world so far

Then she's gon... read more

She dances on the edge of my mind
I can sometimes see her in the corner of my eye

Then she's gone...

I hear her sweet song that burns in my brain
The haunting melodies that draw me to her

I long to touch her, to feel the soft skin of her hand
To hold her in my arms and gaze into her eyes

The memories race in my head
A few moments with her stir the passion in my soul

When she comes, my heart leaps
Her smile is like sunshine

Then she's gone...

Like a dream freshly drea... read more
