    I am an Optometrist.





    Yes, I know that proper english would be seeclearly. But, the "SeeClearly Method" was/is a bogus system of eye exercises hawked on the radio and internet and maybe even TV to improve vision, and I didn't want to be associated with that.

    I was given the nickname Zombieboy 2000 on the local punk rock scene during high school. I figure it was my waifish appearance coupled with the way I dressed that earned me it. It's kind of stuck since and it's always a trip to run into someone I haven't seen in years and for them to call me Zombieboy. Most don't even remember my real name.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Im a huge fan of the FIRST Highlander movie (the other 2 never happened) and the first 5 seasons of the tv series Highlander (the 6th season never happened). Connor MacLeod is the lead character in the movie and Duncan MacLeod is the lead character in the series. Im such a fan that my son who will be born in August will be named Connor!

    Well my name is my first initial and part of my last name.

    I used to spell it bob but people kept calling me Bob so I changed it to john.

    That has nothing to do with my user name but at least my jokes aren't as stupid as nooshinjohn's jokes.

    First name is Joe. Para-Ski is the name of my company which sells powered parachutes. You can see what they are at www.paraski.com The company is no longer active (economy, changes in ultralight regulations..etc etc. ) It was fun for 10 years though, I traveled all over the U.S. and a few place abroad and got to see the land from a birds eye view.
