WHEN LIFE THROWS YOU CURVES, DRAG A KNEE

About Me

What can you say to a bunch of strangers about yourself in this little box? I am alive, and for that I am grateful already. I believe we're different people to every person out there...some may think I'm great and kind, while others may judge me. If I had a say in it, I would simply say I'm a smart, outgoing, aggressive, kindhearted man who enjoys life and looks to the future with great hopes. Due to my parent's divorce, my childhood was spent bouncing back and forth between Puerto Rico and the States (mainly Chicago). I obtained a college level education in both, P.R. and the states; Biology in P.R. and Business Management in the U.S. I served nine years in the U.S. Marine Corps (got out in '06), traveled all over the world, and served two combat tours in that time. Motorcycles are a way of life and have introduced me to the best friends a guy could ask for. I fight day to day as many of you do, to become successful in life, to live a great time, and hope to build a great future for the family I may one day have. On occasion I am misunderstood or judged... many times by those who don't take the time to know me.

My Interests

Life, family, friends, travel, motorcycles, scuba diving, spear fishing, foods from different countries, cook~outs, boating, working out, staying in and watching movies, being wrong, and the constant pursuit of knowledge.

Television:

Too much going on in life to sit on my ass for reality shows, which is what they show anymore.
