Weight: About 83.9 kg/185 lbs
Eyes: Yes
Hair: Got some of that, too
Born: In the Midwestern United States in the mid-70's; some say I was created by the federal government in a lab in New Mexico in 1984, but those sources are untrustworthy to say the least.
Education: Went to grade through high school, graduated with high GPA and various spiffy honors. Went to undergraduate school, graduated with high GPA, various spiffy honors, and a BS (heh). Have undergone multiple mostly useless certification programs for different jobs I've held. Plus, I read a lot and try to pay attention to the world around me.
Martial Arts: Aikido, Judo, Long-Fist Kung Fu, Seven Star Mantis Kung Fu, Tae Kwon Do. But that was all a long time ago, and I've really let my training slide since then.

Favorite bands: Bad Religion, Midnight Oil, Pennywise, Rage Against the Machine, Sum 41, System of a Down, Too Much Joy, Type O Negative
Favorite anime: Rurouni Kenshin, Full Metal Alchemist, just about anything by Miyazaki and/or Studio Ghibli, especially Mononoke-Hime
Favorite ice cream flavor: It used to be anything with lots of chocolate, nuts, and more chocolate, but I'm not supposed to eat nuts anymore, so now just chocolate and more chocolate.
Favorite Marvel super-heroes: Hawkeye (especially by Busiek or Nicieza), Silver Surfer, Genis-Vel (David or Nicieza), the Thunderbolts (Busiek or Nicieza)

Favorite Marvel super-villains: Ultimate Magneto (Millar), Thanos of Titan (Starlin ca. Thanos Quest), Dr. Doom ca. that whole post-Onslaught Counter-Earth thing, the Thunderbolts (Busiek or Nicieza)
Favorite DC super-villains: Most DC villains are pretty lame, but Lady Shiva is okay. Ra's Al Ghul's not too bad, either. And I'm looking forward to Secret Six just 'cuz Gail Simone is such a great writer.
Favorite Hellboy character: Abe Sapien
Favorite Dragonlance character: Raistlin Majere, of course, though Kaz, Sturm Brightblade, Tasslefhoff Burrfoot, and Khellendros/Skie are all pretty fun, too.
