Get Out and Make Some Sweat Shoes!

About Me

Music is pretty much my entire life. I've been playing drums for about 16 years and guitar for about 10. I'm pretty cool about everything...except for gum. I can't stand gum. I can't even look at an empty gum wrapper. I'm a huge Washington Redskins fan, for obvious reasons...they're the greatest football team in NFL history, etc (don't count this past season). I have a 8-year old ball python named Stu Beaver (named after a Tom Green movie), an 8 month old Argentine Boa named Condoleezza, and a 4 month old German Shepherd named Brynx. For those who don't know, I can bench about 1500lbs with one finger alone, and I can fly. So, if there's anything else you want to know about me...tough...the rest is privileged information.div style="width:382px;text-align:right;"

My Interests

I'm a drummer/guitarist, so my hobbies are mainly music oriented. I love not letting people in front of me in traffic who don't use their turn signals. Besides that, I like movies, Washington Redskins, Los Angeles Dodgers, Washington Nationals, Washington Capitols, canned pears, picking up armadillos, calling my roommates racist, and watching Bob Ross episodes. I also think it's funny how people spend so much time on myspace writing about themselves...wait.

I'd like to meet:

God, Michael Vick (so I can allow my German Shepherd to kill him), and the Fockers

My Blog

Let's try this shall we?

So let me give a quick update (for those who wish to know) on what's been going down in my life recently.  Essentially, I'm doing very well.  I have myself a beautiful girlfriend named Linds...
