this is the standard issue about me page. you can actually read my old 'about me' page... (which is very similar to this one) on the older version of this site. i liked the old one enough to actually keep it around even though it is out of date. but anyhow. i will fill out yet another random survey item. the one that everyone seems to have these days. except i will alter it manually to be more appropriate. as in remove the capitalization.

:: three random photos of me ::

:: a few random things i like ::

:: movies :: music :: road trips :: driving around :: cars :: working on cars :: building stuff :: photography :: graphic design :: video production / compositing :: sewing :: vacations :: work :: being from the future :: burning man :: thinking :: learning :: camping :: the rain :: gadgets :: the internet :: the end.

and now the survey i previously mentioned ...

name: zeb.

birthday: april 2nd.

birthplace: fairbanks. alaska. (not the ohio one.)

current location: the same. also... in a chair.

eye color: this one that is a mix of random colors. and has the power of instant hyponosis.

hair color: right now. like some brown. and some bleached sections. and some black. and some red. going to dye it back a normal(er) uniform color soon.

height: five eleven and one half. i don't know metric but it's probably like 9 metres.

right handed or left handed: under handed.

your heritage: apparently russian. and euromutt.

the shoes you wore today: all black converse. i'm lazy lately. and nothing new i want has come out. i used to wear various futuristic pumas all the time. but they don't even have anything new that i really want that much.

your weakness: entering antimatter chambers without a protective suit. bringing the warp drive online just in time to escape the blast created by the genesis device.

your fears: ghosts. and spooky ghost houses. and spooky murderer-filled woods (also containing ghosts.) and that i might not actually be invincible and/or immortal.

your perfect pizza: i'm partial to digornios lately. but also the one at geraldos. the garlic lovers is good. and also a medium dominos with mushroom olive hamburger and jalepeno is good. or so i have heard.

goal you would like to achieve this year: all of them.

your most overused phrase on an instant messenger: mmhm.

thoughts first waking up: 'screw you new day!' then i sleep some more. sometimes missing the new day. thus truly succeeding.

your best physical feature: my 'being-from-the-future'. that feature.

your bedtime: varies wildly. lately. 4-6am-ish. yeah. awesome.

your most missed memory: if i am missing it ... i am probably going to have a pretty hard time 'remembering' it... as 'remembering' is a function of memory. shame really.

pepsi or coke: cokesi™

mcdonalds or burger king: mcburger donaldking!!! actually burger king. i guess. not like i eat it very often or anything. and of course arbys is my true lord and master.

single or group dates: my calendar only shows them happening in series ... one at a time ... in succession... one right after another. i didn't know (for instance) that they existed in 'groups' and it could simultaneously be like July 5th *and* November 3rd at the same time. i think that is actually temporally impossible and would screw up space-time entirely.

lipton ice tea or nestea: sometimes i buy a 12-pack of the cans for like $3. with the Xtreme™ snowman on it. so whatever that one is.

chocolate or vanilla: choconilla!! choconilla!!

cappuccino or coffee: um. 16oz. hazelnut latte. or 16oz white mocha.

do you smoke: spontaneous human combustion is a myth. so what do you think?

do you swear: only the devil tells swears! (actaully... i don't think swears exist i decided. but if i say something that you interpret as a 'swear' or 'offensive' that's your own personal perception of that particular combination of sounds... or more abstractly... that particular collection of shapes representing a series of sounds that in whatever language you speak... or whatever earthly region you are from... that to you means something you do not agree with. not 'swear' related but the precept of the 'eupemism treadmill' is very interesting to me. as is linguistic evolution in general.) so yeah... i swear.

do you sing: hahahahahaha. um. no.

do you shower daily: in colonial times it wasn't unheard of to have your first shower *ever* in your mid-twenties. i do it more often than every 23 years however.

have you been in love: at times i am a fan of revionist history. that said. absolutely not.

do you want to go to college: oh shit. this is like a survey for a 13 year old isn't it? fuck me.

do you want to get married: want? most likely. odds of it happening? slim.

do you belive in yourself: sure. whatever that means.

do you get motion sickness: i don't know. like on a boat or a plane? no. like on those things they test astronauts on? yeah probably.

do you think you are attractive: not really. i do think i am from the future however.

are you a health freak: oh dear god no.

do you get along with your parents: as well as i do with any other person i know.

do you like thunderstorms: absolutely. and rain. and that time right before it rains.

do you play an instrument: i have various. and i pretend to. pretending probably counts. so yes.

in the past month have you drank alcohol: most likely.

in the past month have you smoked: again with the spontaneous human combustion.

in the past month have you been on drugs: uh. no. i basically pretend to be a grown up now.

in the past month have you gone on a date: yeah right. change that to year. same deal.

in the past month have you gone to a mall: maybe. at christmas time i think. all those stores suck it sideways anyway. and the atmosphere is lame too.

in the past month have you eaten a box of oreos: no. that is redonkulous. however... those sams club cookies? the little chocolate chip ones? hell yeah i have.

in the past month have you eaten sushi: i always forget sushi exists. but yeah. probably.

in the past month have you been on stage: sorta. i was trying to hook up the martin-controller (its just a laptop with a USB box on it) at the loon on the tables on stage where matt was djing. that way i could chit-chat and light control at the same time. didn't work though. so i had to do it from the booth. lame.

in the past month have you been dumped: let me think. let me think. (thinks real hard) ... um. no.

in the past month have you gone skinny dipping: rrrrrrrrrrright.

in the past month have you stolen anything: i think the sticky notes at home were originally work sticky notes... as i am suspiciously out of them at work... so i guess. does that count?

ever been drunk: ever?! gee! i don't know! mmmmmaybe! gosh!

ever been called a tease: standoffish. that's the one i get. tease? um. no.

ever been beaten up: not any time recently. like maybe i fought someone in like 4th grade or something.

ever shoplifted: what! of course not! you'd need like a giant crane or something to do that!

how do you want to die: in a post-apocalyptic wasteland after i come across a group of people actively refining petrol in the desert. and i help them out with trying to get the fuel through the gang infested wastelands to greener beachside locales. so i drive the tanker full of gas while being attacked by gangs. little do i know that the tanker is just a decoy! the fuel is actually in drums with the 'civilians' in their bus. that. or in the thunderdome. or also. in a hail of gunfire as i try to rescue a 14 year old hooker from a gang of pimps after i decide to rescue her when i decide killing a senator isn't as cool. i'll have a mohawk when i do this as well.

what do you want to be when you grow up: a robot. or a security officer on board the uss enterprise. wherin i beam down with my friends kirk and spock and get eaten by a horta.

what country would you most like to visit: i think i will do eastern europe next. i was going to this year but didn't have the money at the time that was convenient to go. that or russia.

number of drugs I have taken: 78,000.

number of CDs I own: i never counted. rough estimate is like 2500 maybe? i really don't know. i am in the process of finishing up ripping them all into itunes. and i have maybe a 100 left. and i have approximately 100 days of music in itunes so far. like i hit play now... and playing 24/7 with no interruption... it finishes in 100 days.

number of piercings: zero. there is this one i've wanted for like a good 8 years now. i just never got it. perhaps i get it in the next week. (seriously.)

number of tattoos: every time i *almost* get one... i find the design being usurped by lame people. so i am glad i never did. i drew up a cool one recently. but i'm not big enough for it. i don't think.

number of things in my past i regret: 23.

in a girl...

favorite eye color: is "don't care" a color? i like light blue with black hair. that looks awesome. or any light eye with dark hair combinations. but most the time... dark eyes go with what else i like.

favorite hair color: generally go for darker. hate fake light colors most the time. and random artificial colors are grand as well.

short or long hair: depends. i like both. medium.

height: like 5' to 6' i guess. i seem to like tall ones lately. not like consciously. but i do.

weight: well. girl weight never makes any sense. at all. depends on height. proportionately thin to 'average' i suppose.

best clothing style: mine. which is random. and from the future. and i make all the rules in it.

and that is the end of the stupid little survey. hooray for me.

the end.
