My Interests

Crew, The Military, Computers, Pool, Swimming, Subway, Seafood, Running, Driving too fast, Singing, Motorcycles, Sleeping... Definitely sleeping...

Anyone who can relax. This world is so damn high-strung these days...s/n: OBreaking PointO

Yeah, don't really watch TV all that much.

Books:

Read a bunch of the OIF books to see what people thought of the initial conflict. One Bullet Away was pretty good, but I liked Hammer From Above the best.Blackhawk Down, by the way, is probably my favorite book overall.

Heroes:

My dad pretty much. If I can be half as good as him, I will have lived a good life.
