About Me

I am a LIFETIME MOMMA'S BOY =) & STUDENT of LIFE who is VERY WILLING to LEARN from my & other peoples' experiences to become a VERY SOUND INDIVIDUAL i.e. ADVANCE from a young man w/ some rough edges-MAN w/ smooth edges, usually keep things simple, fairly low key, but I have my moments O=D REWARDrisk, handful ;P type of guy, bull-headed, LOVE the concept of GIVING, hence PUBLIC SERVANT CAREERtypical 8-5 "job," sucka for choco, ice cream, garlic fries, a nice cold beer, & MOST IMPERATIVE, GENUINITY, needless to say, I am VERY selective of who I NEED to get to know & call "friend" since I was raised from a military family background & my chosen career path, I work hard & play even harder, so whether it is from food or sleep deprivation, I PROMISE YOU I will give it my best EFFORT @ that very moment b/c I HATE to lose, let ANY of my family or friends down, & even more, QUIT!!!! +OCD-San Jose Sharks, late bloomer hockey whore of 13+ yrs, Bay Area/NorCal sports' fan, sports' fan, ABSOLUTELY LOVE being OUTDOORS-hiking, chillin' up in city hills, biking, the beach, & especially skating, german shepherd/dog/animal lover, semi-environmentalist, ready for life to throw me a good curve ball for the better i.e. 1 mil folks-20 thou folks. ADVISORY, it would be your ultimate mistake if you get me or any of my family, including my friends, "twisted." Not only would you f*ck w/ my family, but roughly w/ 1.5 million of my fellow brothers & sisters' family also. True, we may be spread & select between, but trust me, we are a very tight-knit family....So, bottom line, just like cheating, don't do it. =]

My Interests
