The Official Brad Fan Club

I'm sick of following my dreams. I'm just going to ask them where they're goin', and hook up with th

About Me

Success:
My success will only be at where I am celebrated, not where I am merely negotiated into.
In life nothing is gained without a loss.
Winners are not afraid of losing, but losers are.
The major enemy of personal genius is self-doubt and fear.
Failure is part of the process of success, and people who avoid failure also avoid success.
Character:
Talent is a gift, but character a choice.
Material abundance without character is the surest way to destruction.
I can change my whole life and the attitude of people around me simply by changing myself (attitude).
Relationships:
Life is too short to permit the wrong person into my circle of influence.
You never learn much from talking, as you learn from listening.

My Interests

Sailing, Tennis, Riding my bike on the beach boardwalk, Traveling, Camping, Hiking, Finding out about good music, Seeing good music live, Snowboarding, Hanging out with old friends, Hanging out with new friends, Playing basketball, Trying new food/restraunts (know of any???), Watching NFL, Angels, Lakers, Packers, Seahawks
