A select few know me as Mikula Dave, but to most I'm just David. If you're looking for contact info, here. If not: take off your pants off, turn off the light off and get comfy. <3
FACT: David Lee Roth is my namesake.
It all started with ASCII art for BBS and MUDs in the 90s on my bitchin' x386. From there, I bought something like WEBMASTER 4000™ with birthday cash—which led me to throwing tons of animated GIFs all over my Geocities site. Hooray for the internet! I've grown more than I ever expected and have the beard to prove it.
FACT: I have reoccurring dream based on Minus The Bear lyrics.
I always have a beard, or feral neck bear depending on how well you know me. I live in Portland, OR Brooklyn, NY with my girlfriend, Natasha, who I think is awesome. I play pinball, drink the most delicious coffee, and work constantly and am surrounded by talented people that I love to drink/spend time with. In my spare time I can be found teaching, starting a small publishing company, fondling my moped or attempting to play keys/synth. Other than plucking the grey hairs from my beard, I love to drop knowledge, tell stories and hear about your epic night. History fascinates me and I'm beginning to go through a headband phase, not sure why.
FACT: I almost made it to the State Donkey Kong Championship in 1995.
