Right about now

About Me

..Congrats Mark and Fran!!!Hi my name is Rico and I live by downtown Fullerton. In my own words I think I'm smart, funny, and unpredictable. I like to make people laugh. I like to meet new people. I hear I'm quite hard to figure out. That's fine with me I think. As far as interests I'm into a few things, but right now I'm definitely into photography. Check it out.
Photos of my friend, Jamie.
My Bengal, Maximus, doing what he does best.
I shot this one in my backyard.I'm a data communications guy. I fix computers, internet, and telephone problems on the field. I like helping people. Everyday has new challenges to overcome and no two are exactly the same.
A customer's dog just chewed up my Versace sunglasses so if you got hookups for any shades leave me a message. If not watch out for those damn mini pinschers. I woulda booted him off a bridge if there was a bridge close enough. "That's how I roll." Anyway, I'm not that materialistic. People think nice things add value to themselves, but I think it just adds more worries like how you would feel if something bad happens to it. My friend Travis says," If you worry about something you lost then you paid too much for it." Haha. That would also mean high maintenance things too.I used to be all about stuff and now it's all about people. I work on the field most of the time and I'm at 6 new homes a day. I try to learn as much as I can from my customers. Everyone's good at one thing or another. They love to tell me all about it. I like to listen and learn. It's better to learn from an expert than to try to figure it out on your own. Those sunglasses were in bad shape anyway. So enough about me. What are you good at? Do you want to know more?
