I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Just an East Coast guy livin' large on the West Coast. I embrace both my preppie upbringing as well as my inner hick/ redneck! I clean my guns as I watch NASCAR while wearing my IZOD shirts and Sperry dock-siders...

My Interests

Spelunking, climbing, playing with my Glocks, roller-blading, mtn. biking, drinking, guns, reading, painting, writing, vegging out in front of the t.v., 4x4 vehicles, classic cars, cars that go REALLY fast, cars that smash into things at high rates of speed, cars that get destroyed by various methods, cars that are built in five days, radio controlled cars, slot cars, matchbox cars, puppies, and kittens. I also enjoy playing Scrabble, throwing darts, making fun of others, and cooking. Flying is also fun, as is sailing, scuba diving, hiking, exploring, travelling, dining out, drinking out, drinking in, bowling, as well as playing with kittens and puppies.

I'd like to meet:

The guy who was driving REALLY slow in the car-pool lane without any passengers! I don't care that he was using the car-pool lane as a solo driver, but the reason to take that lane is to move faster than the other traffic... I'd also like to meet the guy that invented the tube that toothpaste comes in. And, of course, I'd like to meet your mom.
