So...you want to know who I am...eh?

There really isn't all that much to tell. I am going to community college. Yes, as Chris Rock says its like a disco with books and I would agree. I some how through joining this circle of friends ended up being a part of this site...as a staff writer. Edo and Kate will have you know just how frustrating it is to edit my articles. Merriam and Webster weep themselves to sleep quietly every night, but I am "funny" so they keep me around. My other job titles also provide me with some worth I guess.

I am currently the proprieter of theruse.net. Its my more...honest side. Kate says I have to be well behaved, and nice when I am really a bitter, caustic, and sacastic smart as...alec. I have been running it for some time now, and there is all sorts of funny, and great articles exploiting the stupid people of the world over. I'm really not that bad of a person...I just have a unique way of expressing myself. But I'll stop pimping myself too much. Simply, these other people draw...I rant. Capisce?!

Running with that last word, I am also partially Italian. Jebus, am I rambling...I hate that. Well...my past is kinda cool...if you enjoy teh uber band geek stories. My high school career was spent in every possible band senario. I did Marching Band, Symphonic Band, Jazz Band, Pit Band (Musicals), and Pep Band. I don't care what you all are laughing about...I loved every minute of it. In doing so I got to be quite good at the whole music thing. So, my inherited fine arts skills were...redistributed. My Dad is actually a professional artist. Sadly, as everyone here can testify...my art skills are limited to stick figures, cubes, and nuclear explosions. With being in band that much, I was unable to stick to one of my other life long dreams commitments of Boy Scouts. Though I still try and do the activities of hiking, camping, and the like. I am even an Asst. Scoutmaster.

Edo and I actually live together. Our humble abode houses nonstop silliness. Oh, and Edo begging every last fool who walks in the door to play Tekken with him.

Hmmm....what else is there to tell...Well I am an avid gaming nut. I play almost everything I can get my hands on... except X-Box. As much I have to deal with MS (That's Microsoft) at work, the last thing I want to do is come home to play their lame console. I mean I already have a computer, why do I need another? Oh, and the obligitory "OMG ITS HUGE!" As it says in my likes, I play DDR. Then again...a lot of people play DDR. In fact most of them play it better than me, but its a constant struggle between Kate and I to see who is best. She took me under her wing as her Padawan Learner in the ways of...as I called it then...that silly dance game. Now I have a Red Octane pad, and actually use the carrying case. `

Well...I guess that is all to tell, really. If you want to ask me any other questions, don't hesitate to e-mail me at: jodon@ryuhanapress.com I like e-mail...really...I'm so very lonely...

Ciao... (That's goodbye to all you non-italian types)
