the world of springs

I've been traveling around IRC under various pseudonyms since 1998, but I've been 'springs' now for about 5 years or so. Springs is actually a shortened version of my original nick springsrain - so if someone refers to me as 'rainy' then you know why

Outside of IRC I am a visual artist and part-time freelance web designer; which keep me pretty busy. If I'm not around I working on a painting or a web page. I also have several mini projects I work on, including making Google Gadgets and learning about Linux. Click on the links to learn more:

I also have a BA in Anthropology; which I mention because people seem to find this very out-of-the ordinary

• I like Horror/SciFi movies, reading fiction and nonfiction, hiking, photography, pottery, FPS Games, and the Legend of Zelda on any console

• I dislike politics, war, bigotry, music groups that can't write their own songs, and calamari

• I'm the owner of #thevillage and #beta
• I do sometimes lurk in other rooms, but rarely

• I can also be found on the IRC network http://www.v8d.org

• I'm married - to dis who you can find in #thevillage too. We met in an IRC channel back in 2001 and though we were an ocean apart we fell in and love and now live in the UK.

• I have a wonderful 9 year old daughter from a previous marriage. She is my #1 above everything else!
