About this user
Educated expatriate of the frozen Farley Mowat landscapes. I have gone through my first career change, and have return to academia to learn about the technical aspects of Urban Design and City Planning. I work as a lighting technician in theatre / live music / special events, and promote music on the side. I drive a Volvo named Sue.
I have been a soldier, a diplomat, a general and a guerilla leader, all in one evening. I have survived a stampede of deer in the wilds of Canmore. I once saved 12 teenage girls from a horde of fercious army ants. I was a literary cult figure in Prince George. I have shaken hands with two Prime Ministers; shared gardening tips with Sarah McLachlan; had sushi with Gob; shared a pint with Robin Williams; and greeted Prince Charles of Wales on a state visit.
I scored a game winning goal in the semi-finals while at UBC, and once backstopped the Freeman St. Bruins to the Stanley Cup. I meet every Sunday with the Breakfast Club, although I don't know Emilo, Ally, Judd or Molly. My road trip to the US has been chronicled by a motion picture.
I have witnessed revolt in Chiapas; bought underwear from a vending machine; dropped a wishing penny from Hoover Dam; visited the World's Biggests Grain Silo in Saskatchewan; got tear-gased in Seattle; and got woefully intoxicated in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Perth, Osaka, Puerto Vallarta, Glasglow, Hamburg, the US (Bellingham, WA; Portland, Corvalis, OR; Weed, San Francisco, San Jose, Anaheim, North Ridge, San Diego, CA; Las Vegas, NV; Phoenix, AZ) and various locations across Canada (MacKenzie, Tumbler Ridge, Smithers, Vanderhoof, 100 Mile House, Hope, Nelson, Squamish, Whistler, GVRD, BC; Canmore, Jasper, Banff, Calgary, Seebe, AB; Rosthern, SK; Winnipeg, MB; Toronto, Ottawa, ON; Montreal, QB).
I'm a java junkie, music aficionado, film buff, hockey fanatic and an avid reader. I look both ways before crossing the street. Fashion critics swoon over my choice in style. GO CANUCKS!
