Back, relaxed, ready for summer

About Me

The basics: 25 year old tall guy with a great family and a close circle of good friends. I have a pretty sweet job that has me travel now and then, which means I have an impressive collection of: airline miles, hotel points, and little bottles of shampoo. I live in Newport Beach walking or biking distance to all the good bars and places to eat – pretty much the coolest place I have ever lived. Right now, life is good.The abstract: I enjoy red wine, I really like a good cocktail, but I can’t get behind beer – except for Guinness, is that weird? Of my brothers the oldest is the shortest and the youngest talks funny. Every foreign country I have been in I have hit my head at least twice during the trip. I’ve owned 6 vehicles since I was 19. Since taking up Judo last year I have been known to get weird bruises in odd places, should you ever see one I am not being abused or participating in gang fights, but thank you for the concern. I like to make obscure movie references, try and keep up.The philosophy: It is not length of life, but depth of life.The End
