new New Yorker on Forums

Alrighty, here I am. I'll do what the forum asks of me and try to fill out this cute little list of information...

Name: Adam

Location: Hicksville, New York

Hometown: Hicksville, New York

Birthday (sign?): March 17 (St. Patrick's Day) - Pisces

Age: 24

Sex: Male

Occupation(s): Student, and occasional tutor of math or juggling.

Favorite Food(s): Recently I've been smearing hummus on random foods.

Favorite Color(s): Black, Orange, Green, Blue.. hmm.. is Sunset a color?

What is the wing speed of an unladen swallow? Hmm.. African or European?

Toys: Balls, Clubs, "Poi" (aka. Homemade Poi)

Hobbies other than the obvious: Reading, Listening to Music, Hanging Out

Education: In College

Favorite Book(s): LoTR, Harry Potter Series, Hitchhikers Guide Series, and a series called "Murphy's Lore". Also, some of the Star Wars books were pretty good. Oh... and also a book named "The Name of the Wind", that was pretty good.

Favorite Movie(s): Hmm.... LoTR, Star Wars eps. 3, 4, 5, and 6, The Die Hard movies, SOME superhero films, Hackers, Rocky Horror, Legend, Bladerunner, and any Mel Brooks film... I'll stop for now.

Godzilla vs. a Star Wars Star Destroyer. Who wins? Why? Godzilla. I'm pretty sure that the weapons a Star Wars Star Destroyer has are based loosely on some form of energy that may or may not originate from electricity, which should inevitably make Godzilla stronger, if I'm not mistaken.... Sorry, I'm tired.

Favorite TV show(s): MASH, Heroes, that show where they try to sell you large amounts of swords at 3 in the morning, Most Shows on Discovery Channel about Life, the Planet, Space... None of those design shows....

Plans for life in general: (i.e. what you want to do when you grow up) Really? When are you supposed to know the answer to this question? Seriously, I'd love to make my living entertaining people in one fashion or another.

Favorite Music Artists/Composers: That's tough.... I like anything with a good beat. I like ambient music. I'll say a few of my favorite songs are "Hungover as the Queen in Maida Vale" (I think) by Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and "A Change of Seasons" by Dreamtheater.
Aside from that, I listen to anything from classical to rap to rock, punk, reggae (damn, I SHOULD go to bed, is that how you spell that?), industrial, trance, ambient... etc.... If it's good, and you like it, chances are I'll enjoy it as well.

Do you think these pants make my butt look too big? Nope, your butt looks big no matter what you're wearing. No seriously though, you look fine.

Favorie ice cream flavor(s): Choc.Chip Cookie Dough, Vanilla

Marmite, Vegemite, or Nutella?* Umm... Let's see.... I'm pretty sure vegemite is mentioned in a song from the 80's.... so it can't be that bad. Though I do like different kinds of nuts so Nutella has a nice ring to it.... Marmite I'm not even sure about. I admit, I love to try new foods, and I have never actually eaten any of the above. If you would like to fix that feel free to help me with my decision on which to try first.

[*Please choose one. This is important as it is the site's equivalent to sating a religion. We have crusades, wars, mass conversions, cathedrals to Nutella, all that stuff.]

Now since that's over....

I live on Long Island in Hicksville.
I juggle clubs and balls, never really got too into rings.

I started learning some poi and staff moves earlier this year and would love to learn more.

Regardless of your ability to teach me, I love to just hang out and spin/juggle or even just hang and chat.

*shrug* That is all....
