About Me

I'm a laid back single father who takes life as it comes from a positive perspective. I'm an open book with an open mind. At the same time, I'm a bit old-fashioned socially and fiscally, but I always leave a little room for mistakes. I have a nine-year-old Son named Xavier, who is my pride and joy. He plays football, and I am the Defensive Coach for the team. GO PANTHERS! He lives with me and my cute lil' lady Tisha, whom I love dearly. For now I'm working as a Tow Truck driver, doing impounds and accidents and stuff; I also run a beat with the Freeway Service Patrol, helping stranded motorist on the 10 freeway,....for now. I'm also a licensed Life Insurance agent, and I hope to do more with that in the future. I'm just a chill San Diegan with a heart of gold; but I'll cut you down if you try to get bold.

My Interests

Enjoying life, whether I'm high-rollin', or the chips are low. Cooking gourmet meals, writing poetry, playing ball with my boy, coaching sports, and losing myself into some good music. I love exploring new things and places. Going on road trips, and the occasional trip to Vegas. I try to go at least one concert a month, and its usually at a reggae show getting dutty rub-a-dub style. I also love cats, and I have a grey Manx named Ting-A-Ling, and we have recently adopted a stray kitten, appropriately named Ragamuffin.

I'd like to meet:

Good Positive People. Brethren. The type that take negative energy, and turn it into positive energy. Lookin' to meet some new friends and get reaquainted with certain old friends. Easygoing, fun-loving people looking to have a good time in SoCal, or wherever possible. Go out, have good times, chill, go buck-wild, explore, veg-out, get our swerve on, marinate, kick-back, network, or just have a barbeque. Whatevers clever is what I better endeavor.MY SON XAVIER, CARRYING ON THE AMES TRADITION OF SEXINESSFuck the haters and the spectators, at the end of the day, they are just traitors, raiders trying to have their way, evil like Darth Vader, and you know they may, try to throw you in the dirt, not the kind thats pay, I see it everyday, they infect you with their venomous spray, so that they can continue to feed off you, like their at a buffet, they cut you like some paper mache, I cant understand why they need to be so shady, and like capitolism to Che, I observe it with dismay, grown men act like kids, all they wanna do is play, so if you dont feel what I say, and you dont like the way in that I weight, I'd better keep you at bay, 'cause you might try to betray, OK?

Music:

I love all kinds of music. Except glam rock. Sorry, but if your a grown man wearing makeup, a perm with too much Aquanet, "Conan the Barbarian" sadomasochistic leather outfits, and lime-green leopard-print spandex, I'm not trying to hear whatever it is you produce.

Movies:

I like comedies, action movies, some drama, mobster movies, and suspense movies if I'm drinking coffee with it. I cant stand horror movies and chick flicks. With the exception of "Spanglish." Some of my favorites are: "Zoolander," "Anchorman," "The 40-yr-Old Virgin," "Clerks," "Kill Bill I&II," "A Bronx Tale," "True Lies," "Goodfellas," "Talladega Nights," "The Fast and the Furious," "Young Guns II," both "Star Wars" Trilogies, "The Devils Advocate," "American Me," "National Treasure," "Gone in 60 Seconds," "Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior," "Crash," "X-Men I, II, & III," "Smokin' Aces," "Alpha Dog," "Menace II Society," "Transformers," Fantastic Four 2," and "Juwanna Mann" are a few.

I've also recently gottem into Nip/Tuck as well. On Sundays I'm watching the Charger Game.

Books:

I read Text books, especially history books. Right now Im reading "Native American Testimony." I read the newspaper everyday. My favorite book is "The Dictionary of Cultural Literacy." I never really got into fiction. Call it what you want, it is what it is.

Heroes:

My heroes are people who do what is right over what is convenient. Selfless people, that put others before themselves. People who seek to help others help themselves. Those that will stop at nothing to be successful in all aspects of life. Those that never think to perpetrate on others. Heroes conquer life, they don't let life defeat them.
