Music: i like music. http://www.last.fm/user/mg2corrupt

Projects: i wrote an irc bot because i love irc and bots at the same time. You gotta love the mg2bot! it's taught me event programming which is important, because before the mg2bot i didnt know much about it. Now I'm smarter. I also wrote a content management system called bad news.. thats what this is.. this that you're reading was written using bN. I like to do things differently. I like quality over quantity. I am trying to get better at making interfaces because they're important.

Problems: sometimes i freak out on the freeway when I'm on a high bridge. especially when there's nowhere to pull over. I sit up at night watching tv because I can't sleep. I don't know why I can't sleep, I just know I can't. Eventually I do sleep. My best sleep is on the weekends.. usually on saturday morning I sleep til noon. I feel good those days. I'm generally too tense. I'm told I'm too trusting of people. I tell people what they want to hear more than I tell them the truth. I'm overall too dramatic and complicated. I'm a bad boyfriend. I'm a bad friend. I'm a bad kid. I'm a bad brother. I'm selfish. I don't say the right things at the right time. I drink too much diet pop. I freak about about aspertame.

Love: Kriss, the east end kiddies i grew up with, my parents, my brother Stephen, my sisters Lisa and Katy, my awesome extended family, real freedom, the truth.

Wants: A nice big boat w/ a jacuzzi, a multi-million dollar software company, a team of the best programmers I know, a team of the best marketing people I know, a good reliable artist, a nice house on the ocean, an apartment in Portland, and a hug.

Aspartame is so freaky stuff that kind of makes me freak out too. There is so much ridiculous internet controversy about it, to the point where it speaks of it being approved for corrupt governmental reasons. I'm freakin out man.

You're majoring in philosphy. Too fucking cool.

Only taken two courses, logic and ethics, but both had large impacts on me.

My logic class turned me on to the idea that I like to learn about things other than computers. I'm really liking this semester's class and look forward to next semester.

Do you remember when all the east side kiddies used to TRIP out in your parents basement? Do you remember your first real venture with Transparent Technologies (I sitll have cards)? Do you remember who is writing this thing? Do you remeber the bid ideas that you for us all to go to Greektown, but none of us had a car, and it was suggested that we all climb in your ass and you could run all of us down there? Do you remember?.... Mike.
