I'm
Jason, (ed. note: This is not the same person that posts as Jason on
the forums!) I was born Mar 1st, 1972, and I own my own business
(which mainly involves total exhaustion and respiratory impediments).
On the side I'm a liquor roadie for a professional rock band named
RANDAL.
Many
of you know me from the AOL chat rooms JW. And of course my tenure as
a longtime veteran of Hourglass2 Outpost is legendary.
My
interests include movies, music, and sports. I have been an avid and
devoted follower of the Buffalo Sabres since 1980, and I'll be damned
if they don't win the Cup this year. (Please, I'm a Bills fan too. Be
gentle.) I also watch a lot of golf, which it seems nobody
understands.
My
hobbies include learning 3/4 of various songs on my guitar (so no one
expects me to play anything at parties), spending far too much time
reading and participating on internet boards, philosophizing at the
local pub, and fine tuning my penchant for saying the wrong thing at
the wrong time.
My
favorite books include Michael Shermer's Why People Believe Weird
Things, Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead, and Karen Armstrong's A
History of God. Unfortunately, I read far too much non-fiction to
provoke anyone's interest in discussing literature.
My
musical interests are, alas, also quite limited in scope. Jethro Tull
and Rush albums comprise a great proportion of my audio library (heck,
there exists some 60 or so between them). But I'm a big fan of Ron
Hawkins and the Rusty Nails, Smashing Pumpkins, Henry Rollins, and
Robert Plant's Manic Nirvana rivals some of Zeppelin's best
work.
I
was born a Jehovah's Witnesses and cruised along for the first 25
years of my life until finding H2O and, independently of H2O,
questioning the 1914-GentileTimes-Parousia doctrine. I searched for
"the true gospel" and almost committed myself to a
particular brand of Christian theology (which I still believe has much
biblical merit). But my internal skepticism soon took over, and now I
consider myself a deist (which conveniently allows me to define
"God" as I deem appropriate).
