Can't wait for Austin this summer!!!

About Me

My name is Mike Ives. I was half-raised in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. I love UNC Tarheel basketball. Raised the other half in Fairbanks, Alaska. Went to good old West Valley. Kept it trealler than treal. Tried to go to college for a year after WV. It worked out about as good as the Kevin Federline CD turned out (I've actually never even heard it....but you can just imagine, right?!?!). I joined the US Coast Guard and had a blast doing mad fun stuff with a crap ton of mad cool people. Finally made it back to Alaska where I am currently going to school at UAF to become a paramedic. Fun stuff. Otherwise.......my family lives in Fairbanks and they are the best. Got some friends who do ill things. Got some friends who don't. I watch movies that I laugh histerically to, and that my parents say are "sooooo dumb". That's how I know they are good. If I had to pick one animal to be, it would be the perigrine falcon....without a doubt. I think Royce Gracie is the man. And Micheal Jordan. And Roy Jones Jr. I still listen to rap music from back when it was good. Nas said, "Hip-Hop is dead." Maybe not yet....but all these clowns are definitely putting a serious beatdown on it. I've got mad jokes. I love to party and I love to go to church. Mull that one over.Beeyahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!

My Interests

I love some sports. Basketball, football, baseball, softball, hockey, cricket......I'm kidding about the cricket. I enjoy hanging out with my peoples. Friends are very important. Love kicking it with my family. Vacations....Florida, North Carolina, Cali, South Carolina...anywhere with a beach. Enjoy going out on the town. A little night of boozin' and breakin'. haha

I'd like to meet:

Reggie Bush, Dave Chappelle, and Adrianna Lima.

Music:

I love music. Can't live without it, but I think I have a problem. My favorite types of music are rap and country. What?? Am I the only person in the world who does this? Hits Best Buy and picks up the new Mos Def album and the new Kenny Chesney joint? Actually I love all music....when it's quality. A little Modest Mouse here and there.....some old school stuff......gotta be some Wu-Tang in there.......Kanye is sick.......Montgomery Gentry don't play.....Nickelback and Three Doors Down...some Ray Charles.......Lynyrd Skynyrd.......whatever on and onWu......can I get a "Suuuuu!"" ?????

Movies:

Oh jyeah! Movie buff for sure. Favorite movie for the time being is "Man on Fire". Loved "40 Year Old Virgin" funny stuff. Let's see.....Kill Bill, Blackhawk Down, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Shrek 1 and 2, Old School, man.....so many good movies. Just saw "Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" the movie was awesome! Check it out! Just got brought onto Grandma's Boy. Sweet flick!!!

Television:

Over There. Best show on TV hands down. Also Family Guy, the Ultimate Fighter show, ummm.....SPORTSCENTER. Oh yeah. You know, guy stuff I guess

Books:

Just read The Purpose Driven Life. Good book, puts things in perspective. Also read Generation Kill about Marine Recon invading Iraq. Really good book. The Chronicles of Narnia. C.S. Lewis is the man. And I think I liked Of Mice and Men when I read it in high school like......20 years ago

Heroes:

Pat Tillman...R.I.P. Micheal Jordan. Spent 12 years growing up in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. I bleed Carolina blue. I dunno....the world is full of heroes. My hero is anyone out there who has ever put it all on the line for other folks.
