About Me

Jack of all trades, master of none. Would I like to do more then I have already done? Sure. But do I have any regrets about anything I have or haven't done? Absolutely not. Strength comes from forging on...and I won't give up on anyone or anything. So that's it. I like it. I would like to do more then just exist but until my "karma" changes, I will stay strong, and give props to the Man upstairs for the gifts that I do indeed already have. I am blessed for what I do already have, and lucky I haven't lost it.

My Interests

I enjoy the comraderie of my friends, my family, and my dog primarily. Other than that, going to and watching movies, going to or watching any sport on TV (especially UM football, golf majors, horse racing, the NCAA tournament, Steelers, Tigers, Lions, and Penguins games), playing any sport you can think of, primarily football (concussions suck), golf, ping pong, bowling, street hockey (concussions suck again), and tennis. I'm big into fantasy football and fantasy hockey. I'm also into doing the whole video games thing...unstoppable at Tiger Woods 2004! Too bad real golf isn't as easy. But then again, that's what video games are for, right? A big fan of Star Wars Battlefront, Mafia, the Medal of Honors, Madden, any game by EA Sports, and others...anything that is fun to play and not competetive. I like a good comedian to watch/listen to as well, specifically old stuff from George Carlin, Steven Wright, Robin Williams, Bill Cosby and more recent guys like Dane Cook and Eddie Izzard. Other than that, I find complete joy in laying on (or is it in?) a hammock with a beer, mowing my grass while smoking a cigar, or bullshitting with friends in a hot-tub until 4 A.M. If there's more in life that I'm missing, I'm not missing it very much. Oh, and if you haven't already, you need to see U2 live in concert. They are simply...amazing.

I'd like to meet:

Angelina Jolie, Ali Landry, Jessica Alba, Crista Nicole, Karen McDougal, Petra Verkaik, Candice Michelle, Veronica Zemanova, Amber Michaels, Devon, Nikki Tyler, Briana Banks, Jenna Jameson, Catalina Cruz, Carmen Electra, Pamela Anderson......okay, you get the point. Seriously, anyone who is honest, trustworthy, funny, and doesn't take themself so freaking seriously. I have to say though that it would also be nice to have a B.J. Hunnicut to my Hawkeye Pierce...a loyal pal that feeds off of me as much as I could feed off of them. A bestest comrade would be awesome!

Music:

U2, Stellastarr, R.E.M., the Cure, Stone Temple Pilots, Peter Gabriel, Pearl Jam, Guns 'N Roses, Killers, Public Enemy, Eminem, Andrea Bocelli, Pavarotti, Johnny Cash, Frank Sinatra, White Lion and many other 80s hair bands that I will not embarass myself by listing, and of course the King himself, Elvis Presley.

Movies:

The Shawshank Redemption, Schindler's List, Titanic, Forrest Gump, Braveheart, Godfather 1 and 2, Heat, Seven, Dead Poets' Society, Field of Dreams, Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, Revenge of the Sith, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, The Sandlot, Last of the Mohicans, Batman, Chaplin, Saving Private Ryan, Goodfellas, Seabiscuit, The Untouchables, The Birdcage, Falling Down, A Fish Called Wanda, Finding Nemo, Toy Story 1 and 2, The Lion King, Shrek, Scarface, Glory, Gangs of New York, Gladiator, Glengarry Glen Ross, The Princess Bride, The Jerk, JFK, Young Guns 1 and 2, Die Hard, Animal House, Summer School, A Fish Called Wanda, Fight Club, The Full Monty, Grumpy Old Men 1 and 2, Big Fish, The Naked Gun 1 and 2 1/2, Caddyshack, Spider-Man 1 and 2, X-Men 1 and 2, Dumb and Dumber, The Iron Giant, Because of Winn-Dixie, The Right Stuff, Signs, The Sixth Sense, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Remember the Titans, Friday Night Lights, Quiz Show, Weekend at Bernie's 2, Vacation, Christmas Vacation, A Christmas Story, Hoosiers, My Cousin Vinny, Back to School, Airplane! 1 and 2, Napoleon Dynamite, The Good the Bad and the Ugly, Citizen Kane, Pride of the Yankees, 61*.

Television:

Mostly reruns...TV today really sucks. M*A*S*H, Frasier, Seinfeld, Quantum Leap, South Park, The A-Team, Knight Rider, Night Court, Twilight Zone, Cheers, The Simpsons (old ones), Ren and Stimpy (old ones), Beavis and Butt-head, Family Guy, NYPD Blue (pre-Gosseler), SNL (pre-2000's), The Sopranos, and my new addiction, Prison Break. Once again...TV really sucks.

Books:

The Catcher in the Rye, The Call of the Wild, The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, other Narnia books, the Encyclopedia, 1984, I Robot and most anything by Asimov, The Luckiest Man, and any historical book on baseball. If it's about baseball pre-1980's, then I'll probably be interested in reading it.

Heroes:

My dad. I like celebrities like Bono, Mario Lemieux, Brett Favre, and Lou Gehrig, but there has never been any doubt as to who my real hero is, and will always be. Rest in peace, Dad.
