Hi! Glad you could stop by. Browse around, kill some time. Be careful though, you might learn something. I'm Aaron and this is my personal website. I'm a LeTourneau University Engineering graduate. Currently, I work in the HVAC controls industry.
A few years ago, I took a weekend and typed out the rough html outline of the different pages I wanted on this site. That outline hasn't really changed - I've just added more content as time has permitted. I guess that means my interests haven't changed a whole lot. I still love a good joke; an interesting fact; an investment scheme. As I expressed in the last iteration of this page, I'm not going to post my autobiography. But this website is about what I care about - you can learn a fair amount about a person just by knowing that.
Let me give you a crash-course on a few things I find interesting:
- Truth. I want to know what is true and what isn't. Everyone has this desire to a certain extent but I crave and cherish every bit of truth I find. It's hard for me to explain why I am this way. Partly it is my Christian faith. Partly it is my fascination with science; mathematics and philosophy in particular.
- Music. I tend toward anything besides the mainstream - the stuff played on pop or rock radio stations. Classical music always hits the spot. I also enjoy funk, jazz, and - by extension - disco. My favorite band is Jamiroquai. Just don't buy their latest album (why, oh why, did you sell out Jay Kay??!!)
- Literature. I love books. I mostly read non-fiction science books (stop that yawning!) but I do enjoy a good fictional story. Favorite author? That's easy - Michael Crichton.
- Money. It is the root of ownership here in the U S of A. Don't stress out about it; don't ignore it. Learn to manipulate it. Otherwise, it manipulates you. Recently, I've taken an interest in the stock market. I love the idea of owning a part of a company I like.
- Movies. They're entertaining and, once in a blue moon, thought-provoking. Quick list of my favorites:
- Memento
- Lord of the Rings Trilogy
- Batman Returns
- Dr. Strangelove
- A Bug's Life
- 12 Monkeys
- The Spanish Prisoner
- John Carpenter's The Thing
Well, that's about it for now. Thanks for stopping by.
And remember: Together, we can wipe out littering.
