Erm, I'm a 28 yo in Colorado, not sure why I'm even on this site. Anyhow I would say the other sections (such as video games, music, and interests) would sum it up if you want to know more for some bizarre reason.

Interests
Music, art, creativity, design, hacking, DIY, dancing, nature, technology, geekery, too some extent - fashion, outdoors, animals, good food, good wine, unique people and perspectives, intellectual conversations, goofing off, twisted humor (sometimes).
All things digital and geeky. I kind of try to perpetuate the digital chic thing a bit. I basically taught myself how to manipulate electronics and all things digital and have made a living and creative hobby out of it. I make electronic art and music, program things - games, websites, I've taught myself some level of electronics, and have built a ton of stuff from cool blinky things that interface with a computer, to digital synthesizers from scratch, to robots. WTF is wrong with me?
But yeah I like to get out and tear it up as much as the next guy. There is something to be said about the simple pleasures in life. Bottom line is I just want to feel inspired and passionate about something; feeling alive == good.
Music
All sorts of stuff. Grew up with classic rock, blues, folk, and jam. Had all sorts of phases, but one that stuck pretty hard is electronic music, all kinds. I started composing electronic music around 1995 or so, and had a stint performing and throwing underground parties. Super fun.
I still do my thing when time always, still get out to perform sometimes, and maintain a studio and a decent sound system.
Besides my love of electronic music, I like anything with soul and feeling, hell even catchy stuff. Innovative sounds grab me. I like to hear music from around the world. I tend to shy away from the world of pop music, but there's some stuff I can get into. I can't say that I really listen to country. I have a lateral appreciation for things like classical, metal, jazz, etc. That is I don't listen to them regularly or religiously, but I can get into them and appreciate it when I hear it.
That's all for now ZZZzzz...
Video Games
Ok my account is too new, and this site is rather confusing; I'm not sure I'll keep my account so I'm not prepared to rattle off a full game list, but here's what I will give you:
Grew up with Atari, NES, SNES, Gameboy, some Gensis, etc., and that's just how we rolled back in the day. Over the years the amount of my free time allocated to gaming has dwindled considerably, but I hang in there.
I'm down with anything from classics to indie and experimental games. Not quite as much of a fan of sports games, and FPS/Shooters any more, but I give credit where credit is due.
As part of my weird self-taught career path being a digital ninja I've had a stint working in the gaming industry, and even published a couple games
Right now in sporadic spare time I am programming a retro inspired (but in HD with nice effects) game (and underlying game engine) on the XBOX 360, who knows if I'll try to put it up on XBLA and sell it.
So I know how to make games as well as play them; geeky delicious.
