~Interesting Factoid #1: socks are great. you can never have too many of them.

Funny you should mention that- I noticed this morning that I only own 4 pairs of cotton socks. Everything else is nylons, trouser socks, and barefoot in sandals with pretty pink toenails.

~Interesting Factoid #2: i love to read. i usually read about a novel a week. unfortunately a number of things have prevented me from being able to read as much as i used to.

You and me both. The last novel I read took me 5 hours to finish and there aren't any other good suspense/thrillers out right now, so I've been reduced to reading the Divine Comedy for fun until something better comes along. Hurry up Tom Clancy! I'm about to reread Rainbow Six for like, the sixth time.

~Interesting Factoid #5: i can write calligraphy

Me too! I have the 14 tip, 5 color set. I haven't used it since I did my Christmas cards.

~Favorite Secular Novel: the count of monte cristo

Great Movie. I watched it last night, actually. I've never read the book, though. Is it good too?

there, now you've met boring, little ol' me.

Pleased to meet you. Anyone that reads and writes a lot and loves socks and calligraphy has to be a pretty nifty individual.

i thought the book was way better than the movie. i thought the end of the movie was lame but then i'm picky about endings. i didn't like how the movie changed edmund's character. i read the unabridged version and i can't really tell you the difference between the abridged and unabridged except that the abridged is super thin compared to the unabridged

Now I'm intrigued. I think I'll head to the library after work and check it out. The unabridged version, of course. I can't stand feeling as though I've missed out on something!

hi owl.

 

[Tuffguy]

Hey, TG, welcome. How's Wilmington? I used to be stationed in Jacksonville. I miss the ocean!

Sup?
The ocean is awesome. I go to wrightsville beach at least once a week, and go for rides down river road/421 all the way past Kure beach, to the bottom of the peninsula. Love this area.
So you where/are a marine? We sure have alot of those here on the beaches and around town on the weekends. Crazy group. I've seen alot of fights around here between marines. I find it all very entertaining.

hi cal.

 

[Amadeus]

About me:
On the outside: I have dark, blonde hair and blue/grey eyes. I am not very muscular as of now, but I am working on it. I am of Romanian decent, and my last name means "Transylvanian". On the inside: I am a very gentle person, yet at the same time, I try to be very masculine. I like being tough and cute at the same time. I am quite sophisticated in the least. I am tolerant of most of the adversities that life forces upon me day-by-day. I love the Lord with all my heart, soul, mind, strength, and being. I almost know the Bible inside and out. I like to study different languages. I am a pretty scholarly guy, but not in an acedemic sense. I suck at school, and my grades show it, for I am no stranger to the 5th letter of the Alphabet. I can fit in with virtually any crowd, but I am most at home with being a gothic/nerd type person. I love playing video games, and plan to get in the business of designing them in my future. I would also love to travel God's green earth, and experience the diversity of it. Drawing is a skill I have, but it still needs more cultivation. On the religious side, I am personally striving to follow the ways of the early church before, what I would consider, it's corruption. If you would need to call me anything, call me an Originalist. On a side note, I am very lonely and very single right now. I would sure love to meet a nice girl who can relate in areas of interest with me.

Interests: Video Games, Computers, Theology, Music, Apologetics, Swordery, Drawing, Literature, Linguistics.

Music: I prefer Metal, Industrial, Techno, Goth, and any hard-core kind of Rock, but I like most other genres also. I also strictly prefer Christian Artists.
