about me
I'm an ADD sort of person with more energy than most. I play well with others and I dig adventure of most kinds. I'm all over the map in respect to any particular 'style' or genre. You could call me a biker, metalhead, burner, hippie, technoid, geek, environmentalist, jock, shoe whore, and much more, and be right every time. I don't choose any particular lifestyle or fashion, I am just me.

Re: Religion is not the problem (in Raw Wisdom) ... and in respect to religious faith, I would add "without basis".

Re: Vaccination Fear (in Raw Wisdom) I'm not a medical researcher but I do work in the medical industry and have for years, and my opinion is the autism / neurological fear is mostly unfounded. There are some anecdotal and (mostly) fear-based 'studies' but I would not refuse vaccina... read more

Re: Living in Portland.. (in PDX) 300 - 500, I haven't seen places for that. Maybe the others can point some out. My own is a 1 bdroom w/ small loft, and it's $950. Granted, in Lake Oswego, but I haven't seen many that were decent for much less.

Re: The New Athiests. (in Raw Wisdom) I'm not advocating for intolerance or mass reactionary behavior, either via religious zealotry or atheistic outrage. I think moderates on either side can co-exist and see each other's views without going off the deep end. Doesn't always happen, ... read more

I found a good apartment just over the hill from my current house, and it's $350 a month less. Yay! No huge garage or privacy, but hell I sold all my motor vehicles except my Mustang so I'll be fine. I have a choice between a bigger two bedroom two bath, or a one bedroom with loft and one bathroom. I dig the loft one I saw today with the killer view of the entire Tualatin valley, but it's freaking hot. Full sun and no air. I don't know...

I think I'm going with the bigger one in the ... read more

My landlord wants his house back. As in, in two weeks. FAST. I suspect he and his girlfriend broke up and he wants to come home. I would tell him no way, but frankly I am tired of paying this huge rent every month and he's willing to help me out financially if I can find somewhere to go, quickly. So I'm going to try to focus on the silver lining and move yet again. I'm so tired of change and challenge, but oh well. Seems that is to be my lot in life recently.

The job is not going we... read more

Things have been so up and down for me this past year. Love, job change, son coming and going, relationship realities, health bullshit, financial challenges, etc.

What I found today was, I have a really fucked up negative job environment. And yet when people asked about how my past week went, I had nothing to say but, it was FABULOUS.

How does one go from utter stress to relief and joy, then right back to stress from hell, without feeling this need to find some balance and control? I... read more

To some of you, you may wonder, who cares....

To me, I bought the most beautiful perfect bike. I learned to ride it with friends. I learned rebuild things and customized it with my lover and best friend at the time.

This bike is the one thing that has kept me going this past year. I get on it and the rest of the world goes away.

Due to financial stuff, I had no choice. I needed money fast, so I sold it. Today. Last night, technically, but today at least in part, money-wise. To... read more
