About Me

"When this baby hits 88 miles per hour... you're gonna see some serious shit!"
"A beautiful girl can make you dizzy, like you've been drinking Jack and Coke all morning. She can make you feel high with the single greatest commodity known to man--promise. Promise of a better day. Promise of a greater hope. Promise of a new tomorrow. This particular aura can be found in the gaze of a beautiful girl. In her smile, in her soul, how she makes every rotten little thing about life seem like it's going to be okay... A beautiful girl is all powerful, and that's as good as love. That's as good as love." --Paul, "Beautiful Girls"
