I am here for Friends

About Me

As much as I hate math and it makes me nervous (seriously), my life is a series of numbers.For instance, inside my body I have 10 screws and 1 plate. I have 1 dog, 1 cat, 1 wife, and 1 beautiful baby girl. 1 is an awesome number, as long as there are numbers like two to share the same space as 1.I'm obsessed with things with wheels. I like two, I like four. I like loud, I like quiet. I like it slow, I like it fast. I like it dirty, I like it clean, I like it smooth, I like it rough. On the street 2 wheels of my 2001 Triumph TT600 carry me to a hell bent world of the evil empire where I further my hell on earth in a world of numbers. When there's mud, my Yamaha WR450 takes care of the job, washing thoughts of numbers way. On the pavement of a finely sculpted bowl, 4 101a Bones park formula's bolted to a plank of wood cleanse the power of numbers from my skully.In the winter it's back to 1, when I strap in to 1 solid plank and slide down a hill sideways.I see my self getting exponentially getting older everyday. Every six months is leaps and bounds into adulthood. I guess at 34 thats what happens. I've got "mature concerns" and a "real world ideology" whatever that means. Karma is a bitch so you better respect it and treat others like you'd expect to be treated.. and sometimes, it's just your turn, now roll the dice. Cheers to numbers!

My Interests

Being a Dad, Dirt Biking Motocross, Skateboarding, Snowboarding, Going zero to 60 in the blink of an eye on my Triumph, Stand up old School Jet Skis, Punk shows, Grindline/Dreamland Skateparks, My fiancé's boobs, Shit Talking, finding the route less traveled. Natural stuff. Being at high altitudes. Accomplishing goals. The procrastinating forever on the next one...

I'd like to meet:

Someone who's going to invent that Star Trek healer-ma-bob thing. So like I could get hurt and instantly be cured by waving my broken appendage under the light. Either that or a baby cry translator, cause I'm not sure what the hell she's hollering about all the time. That would be awesome.

Music:

Music is awesome. I hear you can get it for free on the internet.
I like punk rock, emo, metal, cheesy rap, and country music. Yep. Country. I have no shame. I'm pretty much all over the map. I think Natalie from the Dixie Chicks is hot. But not like Paris Hilton would say "thats hot" more like you know, fluorescent leg warmers were hot in the 80's. I pretty much think you can tell what people are into (or at least currently) by asking what the latest albums are they picked up, so here's my Latest acquisitions: Fear - The Record, The Casualties - The Early Years, The Fall of Troy - Manipulator, Strung Out - Blackhawks Over Los Angeles, Bad Brains - Build a Nation, Unsane - Visqueen, The Used - Lies for Liars, Montgomery Gentry - Some People Change

Manastash Ride Video 06-30-2006


I filmed a new motocross woods riding vudeo June 30, 2006 on a ride from Manastash Camp, in the Wetnachee National Forest, Washington State. Featuring a few Thumpertalk riders and music by Against Me. Video Edit/Film by Tom Xteamrider.I have a Netflix subscription and love watching movies. The couch kicks ass. Especially after 9pm on weeknights. Favorites are Tron, Better Off Dead, Office Space, The Princess Bride, True Romance, Thrashin', Rad, Bubble Boy, The Dark Crystal, Lady and the Tramp, Santa Cruz Streets of Fire, SkateVisions, and Mad Love. Netflix is awesome. Best $17 some dollars I spend a month most of the time. Death to Blockbuster for stealing their steez.

Television:

I'm obsessed with LOST. I've never been so involved in a TV show. Not sure what the deal is, but I can't wait till the next episode.

Books:

I'm reading "Punk Rock Dad" by Jim Lindberg and more fun with the "C++ Primer" lately. I read a bunch of books a since Feb, but none of them were really good so I won't mention them. Oh wait "J-Pod" by Douglas Coupland was pretty good. In a fucked up Canadian Computer Geek way.

Heroes:

I don't really believe in Hero's, but I guess there's people in the world in which that I've always admired their style, so it's not so much about Heroes it's about people with "style."Skateboarding - Chris Miller Snowboarding - Jamie Lynn Punk Rocker -Duane Peters Friend -Charley McCoy
