Name: Michael
Location: close to York, PA
Birthday (sign?): Aquarius
Age: 40
Sex: Yes please
Occupation(s): Reactor Operator (yeah, that would be nuclear)
Favorite Food(s): the edible kind
Favorite Color(s): black and red
What is the wing speed of an unladen swallow? African or European?
Toys: motorcycles
Hobbies other than the obvious: see toys
Education: enough to know that you can't get enough
Favorite Book(s): Sword of Truth series, pretty much anything by Heilen
Plans for life in general (i.e. what you want to do when you grow up): I may grow old, but I ain't never gonna grow up
Favorite Music Artists/Composers: electronic, goth industrial
Favorie ice cream flavor(s): raspberry
Marmite, Vegemite, or Nutella?* gimme a beer and I will try any of them at least once
Now that I have filled out the basics, I will add that I am married with two kids (19 and 9). Spent 16 years in the Navy and got to see a fair amount of this wonderful world we live in.
I found this site looking for information about fire dancing. I have been playing with fire in various styles like fire walking, candle dancing and other silly things for a long time. I watched a decent fire dancer last night and decided that I should give it a go. So here I am, starting down another path in life.

Hey Michael! Welcome to HOP! I don't know what the York fire scene is like, but if you're ever in the Lehigh Valley shoot me a PM; we've got a little spinning group around here (we're all newbs though; I've been poi-ing for about 6 months).
Can't go wrong with raspberry ice cream, either!

Hail and Well Met Skyclad!
Are you currently? Skyclad that is?
Hey! Welcome to HoP!
I do alot of work down in that area (friends with alot of people in PA) and am supposed to be going down there again soon.
Will let you know.
Motorcycles. Yum.
Favorite style/kind/make/model?
I'm a fan of cruiser over crotch rocket and while Harley's and Indians are in my family, some of the new Honda's are kicking some serious arse.
I'm starting to combine my love of art with the love of bikes to work on custom body art for bikes and helmets, though I've alot to go.
Candle dancing? What kind? Belly, modern, two back monkey dance?
Merry met and blessed be

Higher, higher burning fire...making music like a choir
"Oooh look! A pub!" -exclaimed after recovering from a stupid fall
"And for the decadence of art, nothing beats a roaring fire." -TMK

Pele,
Not currently, but I was when I made the original post.
My current bike is a Buell Ulysses. I am into the adventure riding scene. A bit of dirt, a lot of twist and just eat up the miles. Over 10K since I bought the bike in January.
The candledancing actually started at an underground club in Hawaii. The club has a bit of a BDSM slant, and I was known for being good with hot wax. On thing led to another, and I started dancing with lit candles. Usually I will use tapers, but have been known to use votice candles as well. I do not use any sort of holder for my candledancing, just accepting that I am going to get wax all over myself. To be honest, I often would finish a dance by pouring a bit of the wax on my tongue.
