ABOUT ME
Let's see - I ride my bike a lot. I enjoy being active. I'm writing a book about a Disney animator who became a labor leader. I respect noise volume and personal space, as a note to you hosts. I'm a hippie/hipster and a Wall-Street Wannabe. I have traveled on my own many times, but I enjoy good company as well.
PHILOSOPHY
"Be excellent to each other, and party on, dudes!" - Abraham Lincoln (via Bill & Ted)
"My hope is to leave the world a little better for having been here" - Jim Henson

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've seen my name in print. That never stops being amazing. ... I've biked more than 100 miles on a hybrid bicycle, many times.
Teach, Learn, Share
To unclog a toilet, first look under the porcelain for a faucet and turn the flow of water off. Then take your plunger and place it as closely over the toilet drain as you can. Push down repeatedly to force air and water down through the pipe. Don't focus on the pull. This will work in no time. ... If you want to save water every day, put a brick in your toilet tank. Less water will be used for each flush. Sorry this is about toilets, but hopefully it's news you can use.
