About Me

I live in Chico, California, and work a half hour away in Oroville where I grew up. I attended the Academy of Art College in San Francisco, while living on a sailboat for a few years. I decided I suddenly didn't like art anymore and just wanted to go back to Chico and hang out with my friends. That was 1996 and I'm still having a good time. Sure, I blew a lot of money on college and didn't even graduate, but what I learned was worth it. Now, I have a sign shop, trying my damnest to stay young, though now in my mid 30's. I'm a big fan of Sierra Nevada beers, brewed here in Chico. I wish they'd give me free beer whenever I plug their product. With my luck, they'd sue.

My Interests

Crucifixion is a bummer of a way to kill yourself. I've tried it a hundred times and there's just no way to hammer that last nail in.
