I'm a Newbie..so start the flogging!!
1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
When I work.. Fix Electric forklifts.... My hobbies. Like father like son, so many.. but the main ones are Fixing up cars and bikes, and building robots to take over the world and eventually the universe, but you have to start somewhere.

2. Where are you from?
Everywhere and sometimes I don't remember (militarybrat). But I usually say Virginia. Right now I'm getting ready to settle down in Sacramento, Ca.

3. Who is your favorite author?
Isaac Asimov. Anyone who writes about what robots feel is in my books.

4. What are your favorite films?
The Wraith, The Day the earth stood still, Terminator one and two, Cherry 2000, A.I., I Robot, Bamboo Flying Saucer

5. What music do you want played at your wedding?
Mephisto Waltz's "Mephisto Waltz"

6. At your funeral?
Filter's "Hey man nice shot" for the service and Black label societies " In this river" for the laying of casket

7. This IS a gothic website, so... how do you want to die?
Destroyed by my own robot or at least a robot, but not one of those car manufacturing ones.. that would be lame.

8. What kind of casket would you want?
I want a concrete mausoleum <a huge one> I mean something very arrogant and gaudy.
Something that will tell the future what an asshole I was.

9. What's your FAVORITE outfit?
Greasy overalls. Nothing says fashion like "I don't give a damn and I work for a living"

10. What's one thing you miss about being a little kid?
Getting away with everything because your cute and innocent. That shit don't fly when your old and ugly.

11. What's your favorite band?
Angel spit, but sometimes KMFDM or GODHEAD

12. What kind of education do you have? What is/was/will be your major?
HS/ Tech for mechanics... When I settle I'll go back to tech for electronics.

13. Why did you join?
Chat, meet, party. I move everywhere and it's hard to find people with similar interests.

14. If the first 13 questions didn't give it away. What is your gender?
Sometimes I'm confused... I have to look down now and again...j/k I'm a dude.
I think...

You're interesting, and weboth want mausoleums, so you get bonus points!
By the way, if you like Artificial Intelligence and science fiction books, I deeply reccomend the Hyperion saga by Dan Simmons!
Welcome.

Welcome. I like mausoleums too, click on my name to your left, then select "HumanePain's homepage!" to see my photos of various mausoleums and tombstones. I love to read Isaac Asimov too, I have almost all of his books, including the ones that continued his Foundation series after his death (continued by his family and publishers).

Again, welcome.

Thanks everyone. I'll stick around as everyone is happy and thoroughly annoyed and then longer. Great pics Humanepane. As soon as I'm done reading Deep Fathom by James Rollins then I'll get to that Hyperion series. Anyone in The Sacramento area? Just curious Looking at that area and also maybe Stockton cause it looks like they got good jobs there. Any info? cool. Rivet head? Possily but maybe more like Circuitry man. Can you **** me? Depends chick or dude? and how much money? HA j/k sort of.. I'm getting kind of desperate now.... I'll try to not upstage you Maggot, But since I'm big like Gigantor I might accidently crush you. No hard feelings. Later everyone! Hope everyone had a splendidly morbid weekend like myself. Back to the old resume manufacturing thing. Feel free to im me or email me. I don't mind now that I'm in the middle of nowhere.

hello, and welcome! like others here have implied, if you appreciate Issac Asimov, you're ok in my book. I have enjoyed several of your posts so far.
