Sometimes, you just can't stop the river.

About Me

i was born a poor black child on a farm in Mississippi. i then moved to New Orleans, Louisiana where i was immediately recruited by the world-famous jazz band, The Whistling Dixies, and we cut 17 straight platinum albums. after graduating from high school and drinking my way through Lousiana State University's theatre program, i found myself fast asleep in the back of maiz ( the Spanish term for "corn" ) truck in Tijuana with a tattoo of a snake humping a rabbit on my ass and an empty tube of chapstick in my underwear. Seeing as how Los Angeles was the closest big city to Tijuana, i packed up my tattoo and my chapstick and headed there to live out my dreams of becoming an actor comparable to Marlon Brando ( I found out months later that SAN DIEGO was, indeed, the closest big city to TJ. You can imagine my shock... ) So, here i am, hanging out with a friend of my mom's from "Survivor:Vanuatu" in The City of Angels where we do nothing but take our clothes off in auditions for horny Casting Directors and snort lines of low-grade cocaine off Lindsey Lohan's bodyguard's expensive sports jacket. Things really couldn't be better...But, seriously folks... i'm a good guy. i like to have fun, i work hard. i guess you could say i'm your typical young, single, 20ish guy. i'm lovin life and life is lovin me.
