fossilapostle chose seven of my interests for me to explain. Comment and I'll pick seven of your interests for you to explain in your own LJ post.68k - I am a classic Macintosh enthusiast, and by classic Macintosh I mean the old SEs and LCIII and such made with the Motorola 68k processors. Also, the Commodore Amiga line was manufactured using the Motorola 68k processors, too, and I happen to be an Amiga enthusiast. Believe it or not, I have a fully functional Mac SE FDHD running System 7.3 and AppleShare Server 3.0 with an external 20 GB SCSI hard drive. I also own a Commodore Amiga 2000HD with Video Toaster. This makes me happy. :)
bobbo byrnes - Bobbo is the guitarist and vocalist for The Fallen Stars. He used to be the lead guitarist for one of my all-time favorite Nashua bands, The Gypsy Mechanics. I miss the hayday of the Gypsy Mechanics playing at the since defunct Red Square in Nashua. He was always wild at live shows. I remember one time he wandered off mid song while still playing and went dancing in the dance club in the next room (gotta love wireless!) and came back in to finish the song with the band. Good times. :)
cooking - I do all of the cooking at home and, as much as I grumble about having to cook and would like
painted_wolfto cook for me once in a while, I still really enjoy cooking. It's very much an art. I seem to have a very good knack for just grabbing ingredients and turning them into something tasty. It's very helpful when times are tough!evilman - Evilman was a comic title released by Moonstone and was very wonderfully odd. Evilman is (as seen in my userpic) a bean-shaped dude whose belly button was a portal to another dimension. They only released a few issues and I'm only missing one or two of them.
fry bread - After European settlers made contact with Native Americans they started trading with them, including dry goods. Native Americans used the flour, sugar, milk and butter they got from the whites in all sorts of creative ways, including making fry bread. It's kinda like fried dough and it's absolutely delicious. Some ways of eating it include topping it with the usual fried dough topping, topping it with wojapi (a Lakota berry pudding) or topping it with taco ingredients (which is aptly named an indian taco).
glbtq - Well, I suppose since today is National Coming Out Day it's only appropriate that I start by saying that I happen to be one or two of those letters. ;) GLBTQ stands for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and questioning. I am very much interested in equal rights regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity and expression.
snmnmnm - SNMNMNM is a marvelous geek rock band kinda like They Might Be Giants. Instead of bass they use tuba and often they forgo guitars instead using accordians. It's fantastic!
