I don't think I'm gonna do Hamster Style anymore.

About Me

i'm all about the thundercloud subs, photography (film & digital), wasting time, riding my bike, flights of mania, surliness, being down & out, useless knowledge, losing things then finding them. I like garden gnomes, dancin' like james brown and kickin' out the snake dance jams. when is kazaam part 2 coming out?

Im trying to win over *Mr.CLIFF YABLONSKI* , but I suspect I'm losing.
