I don't make monkeys, I just train them.

About Me

I'm 25. I work for a radio station in Gainesville, Florida - Kiss 105.3. IF you're ever down in Gator country, you should check it out - or listen online: www.kiss1053.com. My family lives in Indiana: Mom, Dad, and three awesome sisters - Rachael (14), Holly (12), and Amber (10). Amber is awesome with oragami, Holly can play the piano and more instruments than I can imagine, and my sister Rachael is athletically talented and has a killer taste in music (need some tix, rach?).

My Interests

Music, Golf, radio, and penguins....unhealthy obsession with penguins. I collect anything penguin related. If you come across a rare penguin artifact or trinket and you can't find a use for it...bring it to me. I'll give it a good home.

I'd like to meet:

Fred Astaire, Maury Povich, & Mother Goose.View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment

Music:

Fuel, The Police, Michael Buble, Kansas, Mozart, ZZ Top, Foreigner, REO Speedwagon, Steely Dan, Boys Like Girls, Within Temptation, Bach, Neil Diamond, Bowling For Soup, Yellowcard, Stroke 9, Beethoven, Athenaeum, anything that rocks.

Movies:

I enjoy many movie films. Most recently: Simpsons Movie (I've seen it three times...anyone down for a 4th?) Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, 300, and Grandma's Boy. Then there's the classics: Shawshank Redemption, Green Mile, Coming to America, The Great Outdoors, too many to mention. The Comedies: Anchorman, Talladega Nights, Old School (Will Ferrell rocks...see my pics section), Happy Gilmore, Animal House, Pee Wee's Big Adventure, and Back to the Future...all three.

Television:

Family Guy, Simpsons, 24, for some reason I was compelled to watch "the Pickup Artist" on VH1...its oddly compelling. I also like to watch old Full House re-runs. I used to watch the Game Show network, until they got rid of "Let's Make A Deal"...the best game show ever.

Books:

"The Wizard of Ads" by Roy Williams..I've almost finished reading it.

Heroes:

My Dad, Elvis, and penguins.

Man up already!

I hate people who f-up and then won't own up to their mistakes.  I've made my fair share of mistakes - and although its humbling, I'll admit my wrong doing.  But if you F something up, own u...

See Borat - its Nice! HIGH FIVE!

Well worth the price of admission - go see Borat.  In the entire 90 minutes the film was running, there were maybe 5 minutes total that I was NOT laughing.  Very funny.  He says SO man...

Remember....not re-live...

That was my motto going into today.  Apparently I threw that out and did the complete opposite, remember and re-live at the same time.  I logged on to cnn.com this morning at 8:30 ...

Whatever you do...

Don't rent "Hillside Cannibals".  Kelly told me to rent a scary movie - so I picked up this lovely piece of cinema - it seemed like it was similar to the "Devel's Rejects" (Rob Zombie Film) which...
