About Me



... Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !

enh, there's not much to tell. I like going out to eat, going to the gym, watching spontaneous fights that break out on the subway, catching a flick every now and then, etc... Oh, and I paint.

So about Kentucky....

Yeah, I don't think I went into too much detail about my trip to Kentucky last weekend. I'll be honest, there wasn't a whole lot to it. It's not exactly a party city. It was a good trip though, cau...
