Spending time with my son Ryan,,my family,my nephews Liam and Declan,and my friends. Listening to Pop-Punk , going to shows,watching indie films,reading,playing in my band THE REPELLENTS.Complaining at practice. Complaining when we load our equipment. Complaining at our shows. I also like watching my favorite sports teams in action:Chicago Cubs, Stl. Rams, Dallas Mavericks,and the Miami Hurricanes. Lastly I enjoy the occasional drink with friends,co-workers,or family. Who am I kidding? I love to drink!!
I would like to meet people in the punk scene who are NOT jaded and bitter,think they are better or more popular than everyone else, or sit back and complain about they way things are but never help out. I want to meet people who DON'T have hang-ups about race,religion,sexuality,and just want to have a good time,make great music,and have some interesting conversations. I want to meet people who are NOT music snobs. I want to meet people who are NOT fashion whores. Get the picture yet? I knew you would catch on. That's why I want to meet YOU. Good Job!

Smallville. Deadwood. Family Guy. Veronica Mars. The Sopranos. Robot Chicken. I don't watch too many tv shows on a regular basis. I would rather watch movies,read a book,listen to music,and things like that. Maybe eat. I like to eat too:) Ha Ha.
Most of the stuff I read is non-fiction. Nothing special to list here. I am sure everyone has their own taste in author's. You don't need me acting like Oprah,and telling you what to read.
My friends and family are the only hero's I need. Why put my faith in a person who could care less about me? I think people don't give enough credit and love back to those who truly care about them. Their friends and family. Don't neglect them,because they won't be around forever. They also know you and your fault's and still love you no matter what. What more could you ask for?? Donald Smith,Sr.:November 20th,1941-March 30th,2006. He was one of my biggest hero's believe it or not. I miss you terribly already. You made me want to be a better person. I love you Pop.
