About Me

one time a friend told me i was guarded . . .
i need to build, i need to create, i need a nap. if given the option i prefer to sleep naked (honestly, who wouldn't). when i'm working on something (i.e. welding a tank or frame, even something as simple as cleaning a part up with the wire wheel) i tend to stick my tongue out between my lips. the best statement i can say about my future is that i don't want to make license plates. not in the criminal got caught sense, but more in i don't want to do the same thing over and over. i enjoy the problem solving aspects, the design, the construction of the first one, but churning out subsequent copies . . . not really my bag. any questions?
if you were to ask me right now one thing that i could not live without it would be motorcycles. there are few if any activities that can make me grin like an idiot as even a bad motorcycle ride can. i wouldn't necessarily say i'm a hopeless romantic, but i certainly am hopeless in some sense.
people helping people gets me all choked up. i'm corny like that.
my cousin matt has this to say about me "creative and slightly dark, somewhat human."
i'm a skeptic, a cynic, and an optimist. i'm terribly sarcastic.
