  • Who am I?
    I am a 32 year old QA / Software Testing Specialist and full time Hip-Hop head. Having "backpackerist" leanings, I tend to favor traditional East Coast Hip-Hop music over that coming out of other areas, but I do have the ability to appreciate artistic talent regardless of geographic region. I don't "hate" anything but wackness. Epinions is catharctic for me because this is the only place where reviewers can honestly trash commercial rap and get paid for it.

    As a Techie, I get to play with some cool gadgets and software, so from time to time I'll drop a new electronics or software review here periodically. I just bought a brand spanking new XBox 360, so expect to see some killer game reviews soon.

    I also am the Shaolin Monk of Epinions. Thanks to my years of experience here [or hundreds of hours wasted depending on your perspective] I have observed and researched many the strategies and methods required to survive at this pastel palace. I could easily have hoarded this knowledge for myself, but in the true spirit of scientific discovery, I have decided to share my findings with the Epinions community for the grater good. If you're having trouble "blowing up" here, simply read my Epinions editorials in the yellow column to the left.
