Not Matt

I'm just a miner for a heart of gold...and I'm gettin old.

About Me

A Man's universe is only as big as his sounds are heard, his words are read, his fingers touch and his warmth is felt. How his Universe is looked upon is dependent on how he uses these abilities. I hope you enjoy being part of my universe.

My Interests

Music, Texas A&M, Movies, Cars, My Boat, Soccer, Traveling, Football, History and Culture

Movies:

Man oh Man do I love the cinema. Seven...my favorite movie of all time.

I have 3 friends that work at a video store so I watch a lot of movies...that's just the ones that popped into my head.

Television:

Don't watch too much TV, but when I do I'm usually staring at;The History Channel, Soccer, College Football, Southpark, Aqua Team Hunger Force, Viva La Bam, or a movie that has caught my attention.
