Awe me with Hawmony

About Me

I'm a maniac, maniac on the floor. And I'm dancing like I've never danced before.

My Interests

I am interested in music. I am interested in anything that has to do with music. Boxing is one of the favorite things in the world for me too though. It's been my favorite sport since I was little and I know more about boxing than anything else. Some more things that I'm interested in......snowboarding, hacky sackin', reading, chillin' with my homies, running (I'm a running freak and occasionally run anywhere from 5-10 miles), playing pool, playing video games, working out, collecting comics, and basically.....I'm a laid back, down-to-earth fella and I'm always down for good ol' fashioned conversation. So if you wanna talk music sometime or have some interesting stories to tell....I'm all ears. Also, if any of you out there wanna talk boxing.....speak up. I can talk boxing for days on end. One more thing, I wanna go to China to learn Kung Fu. Yes indeed.

I'd like to meet:

The ghost of John Lennon.

Also, I bought "The Aviator" recently and the movie is almost three hours long but I've still managed to watch it about 4 times now. Howard Hughes was such an interesting person. I give it 5 stars out of 5. Spinal Tap ROCKS!!!

Television:

Well, my favorite sport is boxing so any time I get a chance to check out a fight that would get first dibs. I'm sure that the Oakland Raiders will receive much of my attention come this fall. One show that I have been watching more of lately would be CSI. I can dig that sh*t. Tales from the Crypt was always a favorite show of mine. I like the show "Coach" too. It seems like I laugh my ass off every time I watch it. Oh yeah, I like CNN too. My current favorite show is "The Office." I think I'm gonna have to get each season on DVD.

Books:

Right now I'm reading "The Talisman" by Stephen King and Peter Straub. I'm on like page 450. Somewhere around there. It's a good book. One that I'd recommed to anyone. I also read a book about Weezer called "Rivers Edge: The Weezer Story." It's about a five hundred page book and I read it in two days. It definitely had my attention. Just finished a bio on Howard Hughes. It was damn interesting. Now I'm on "Angels and Demons" by Dan Brown. Lately I've been reading thriller fiction by James Patterson. He wrote Along came a Spider and Kiss the Girls. His books seem to keep my attention. The Anthony Kiedis bio "Scar Tissue" is interesting also.

Heroes:

Randy Moss and his amazing afro. Arturo Gatti and Micky Ward.....for the thrilling boxing match they produced for the world on May 18th 2002. My Dad....who was just inducted into the South Dakota Country Music Hall of Fame. Funk brother James Jamerson dropped many a funky lick on his Fender Precision Bass too.
