About Me

Not tall, dark and handsome, more like slim, pale and awkward. I have too many hobbies and one day my body will be donated to scientific research in order to better the canine race. I exist a few inches above the ground on a moving platform with four wheels. On occasion I have been known to shoot some hoops or throw around a bowling ball. If I knew what to say you would probably be reading it.
**note to self, "go skateboarding"

My Interests

Life, Liberty and the pursuit of a better skatepark.

Music:

What ever is spewing forth from any of the various I-pods my friends have. There is too much good music to even try to list. Thanks Apple.

Movies:

Gnarly war/love stories and Tarentino flicks round out the favs. Anything w/ Marc Johnson gliding through space.

Television:

Chapelle needs to call Chris Rock and create the first TV show to cause mass laugh histeria and the first ever laugh related deaths.

Books:

John Grisham

Heroes:

The usual suspects, Dad, Mom, apple pie and the peeps who invented the skateboard. All those out there that handle the biz.
