About Me I enjoy hanging out with my kids, hanging out with my friends, making trouble, girls, music, weirdos, art, comedy, making an ass of myself, motorcycles, COFFEE!!!!!, cars, creative people, Formula 1 racing, beer, food, all things German, Sub Genius, meeting new people, hot peppers, travel, lying to Wonder Woman, different cultures, TV, snipe hunting, gaming (PC), skateboarding, cat juggling, skiing, mooning, politics, kimchi, the Dutch, sports, music & talk radio, UFOs, streaking with lemmings, teaching Bigfoot how to shoot the ray gun straight, government conspiracies, being weird, exploring uncharted territories, playing chess (my computer is a better chess player than me...but I am a better kick-boxer), and especially the written word.
