There is nothing more uncommon than common sense.

About Me

Yep, I'm guilty of being suckered into myspace. Let it sit unchanged for 6 months then was convinced to add some info and pictures *sigh* It allll went downhill from there and now can't get away from it..!
Sarcastic, creative, adventurous, stubborn, motivated, competitive, sometimes completely random, sensitive at times, and easily amused are just a few of my many traits. Often found blowing fire and eating sushi, love cheering people up and making them feel special ...sometimes it's the little things in life that mean the most.
Life in a nutshell:
Spent my first 5 years living in Key West, adopted by grandparents, raised on a farm, lived in midtown, and now in Vinings just a mile or two from work. Grew up rock climbing, rappelling, & kayaking and always looking for a good time. Willing to try just about anything at least once... ;-)
Goals for 2007:
The relationship thing has been a disaster, seems like the more you care about someone the worse off you are sometimes so all that’s going on the back burner for now. Compromised so much and put the things I love aside for others long enough. Along with a much more pleasant day job with great co-workers & benefits I’m starting a design business, founded a new online automobile magazine, and created Paragon Photography ...with plans to build another car and tackle 2007 with monster truck force :-)

My Interests

Making memories.
Cars...racing, tuning, fabrication, etc.
Photography, my newest love!
Architectural design, 12+ years on AutoCAD...it pays the bills. :-p
Outdoors...camping, sleeping under the stars or in my tent with the smell of the campfire and sound of a rushing creek or river nearby :-)
Website design...sometimes tedious but it can be fun creating something that entertains others.
Cooking...or should I say eating? My crazy milkshakes mixes don't really count as cooking but I love grilling! (or maybe it's just the fire?!) From my world famous (lol) hamburgers to shrimp scampi to tequila chicken or whiskey marinated steaks. I'll cook anything on a grill or over a campfire.
Did I mention photography...?

I'd like to meet:

If I could...
1. Frank Lloyd Wright
There is nothing more uncommon than common sense -- Frank Lloyd Wright
2. Hassanal Bolkiah, the Sultan of Brunei to see his vast and exquisite automobile collection.

Music:

With the exception of Zac's band, everything but country! You can try but good luck changing that ;-)

Movies:

As with music i like a wide variety, just about anything actually...

To start of with, I am a guy so action movies are somewhere at the top of the list while cars, guns, & sex all go hand in hand.
Movies that make you think or at least wonder what kind of childhood the director had...Saw, The Ring, The Village, etc.
If you're gonna rent a few movies always need to throw in a good comedy, even if the plot is kinda lame...40 Year Old Virgin, Meet the Fockers, etc.
Then last but not least, and nearly embarassing to talk about...the occasional chick flick too. One of my favorites for some odd reason is Sweet Home Alabama.

Television:

Rarely watch TV but if it happens to be on then CSI, Law & Order, NCIS, House, etc...Can't pass up an episode of Cribs and if really bored then Dog the Bounty Hunter, E channel, or sometimes I'll even find myself amused by a lame reality show. I did say I rarely watch tv right? :-p
