About Me

I always hate writing these things up. Hm...what do the good people want to know. Well I play lead guitar for a band named Inverness (visit us at www.invernessband.net and www.myspace.com/invernessband). Other than that I just am a pretty straight forward guy I like to have a good time with absolutely anything I do. What do I do for cash...well I'm an educator at an adult education centre. Other than that I'm not really up to much...finishing my degree, starting a new program in september (WILL IT EVER END??!!??). I guess if you want to know me you'll ask me questions...so there... the ball is in your court!

My Interests

I like lots of things, music (obviously), reading, movies, walking by myself to sort out my thoughts, cooking, drinking (lol)...as I said I pretty much have fun with everything I do.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone really, as long as you're not into lying and deception. That stuff really pisses me off!

Music:

Inverness (haha, you can't blame a guy fo trying), Soilwork, In Flames, Phil Collins, A Perfect Circle, Dream Theater, Tori Amos, Rush, Avril Lavigne (can't really explain that one), Pantera Dave Matthews Band, The Tea Party...anything of anystyle really, I just like anything with melody.

Movies:

WHERE DO I BEGIN??? I love so many...alright just a few from my collection: Snatch, Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrells, PAYBACK, The Maltese Falcon, Casablanca, North by Northeast, When Harry Met Sally, killer Klowns from Outer Space (alright I'm kidding about that one), Mr. Blandings builds His Dream Home, Boondock Saints...I'll stop there or I'll never finish.

Television:

Don't really watch much TV, I don't have the attention span for it (lol). I do watch the Simpsons, That 70's show, and Futurama (whenever it's on).

Books:

WAY TO MANY TO LIST! Here are a few on my shelf: Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere and American God's, Eckstein's the Rites of Spring, Stoker's Dracula, Richler's The Street and Joshua Then and Now, Cain's the Postman always Rings Twice, and Shakespear's MacBeth.

Heroes:

All those who have the power to inspire others; may I one day share your gift...specific references must be made to Werner Heisenberg (for discovering the uncertainty principle...your research has changed my perception of the world), Phil Collins (because he is the epitomy of musicianship), my bandmates for inspiring me to be a better musician (and for showing me a constructive way to deal with my emotions...specifically my anger), and my grandparents (because they kick ass).
