About Me

I am in my early 20s, and live in Tennessee. AND I AM ITALIAN BABY!
FRIENDS VS. ITALIAN FRIENDS
FRIENDS: Never ask for food
ITALIAN FRIENDS: Are the reason you have food.
FRIENDS: Call your parents Mr. and Mrs.
ITALIAN FRIENDS: Call your parents mom and dad.
FRIENDS: Bail you out of jail and tell you what you did was wrong.
ITALIAN FRIENDS: Would be sitting next to you.
FRIENDS: Have never seen you cry.
ITALIAN FRIENDS: Cry with you.
FRIENDS: Borrow your stuff for a few days then give it back.
ITALIAN FRIENDS: Keep your stuff so long they forget it's yours.
FRIENDS: Know a few things about you.
ITALIAN FRIENDS: Could write a book with direct quotes from you.
FRIENDS: Will leave you behind if that's what the crowd is doing.
ITALIAN FRIENDS: Will kick the heck out of the whole crowd that left you.
FRIENDS: Would knock on your door.
ITALIAN FRIENDS: Walk right in and say, "I'm here!"
FRIENDS: Are for a while.
ITALIAN FRIENDS: Are for life.
FRIENDS: Will take your drink away when you've had enough.
ITALIAN FRIENDS: Will look at you stumbling all over the place and say, "you better drink the rest of that, you know we don't waste!!" then they'll drive your butt home.
FRIENDS: Will talk "stuff" to the person who talks "stuff" about you.
ITALIAN FRIENDS: Will knock the "you know what" out of them!!
FRIENDS: Will ignore this.
ITALIAN FRIENDS: Will forward this because they know it's true!!
My favorite things to do are to dump money into my car and travel all over.
Currently, I have traveled all over the United States - I have been to more states than I have not. I have also been to Canada, Italy, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic. Just this summer I have been to Seattle, British Columbia, and a cruise to Alaska. I really want to go to Australia.
My car is my baby. I have a Mazda Miata with a Hard Dog roll bar, custom body kit (Bomex front, VIS Racing sides and rear), paint job (painted Nissan 350Z blue), Mazda Speed racing seats and four point harnesses, APR carbon fiber side mirrors, Altezza tail lights, 17" Konig Hurrys with low pros, short ram air intake, 5 Zigen cat back exhaust and Indiglo Gauges. I am thinking about swapping engines with a JDM Miata engine and probably a turbo or super charger. And yes, it is a manual tranny.
Also, after years of searching for the perfect one, I finally bought the Celica that I have wanted since I was 16. A black, on black, on black, 95 convertible, manual. YEAH FOR CARS!
I also happen to have a 1979 International Scout II that I am working on getting fully restored. Once you go International, you can't go back.
Someone interesting introduced me to this Robert Frost poem that I love:
Some say the world will end in fire
Some say in ice
From what I have tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire
But if I had to perish twice
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction - Ice
is also great
And would suffice

My Interests

Since I love music, I see a whole lot of live music events.

Animals...

And Piney loves his fish

But Findley lis afraid of kitties

I also love to dance.

I like photography, although I have never taken any classes or anything. And my camera isn't all high-tech. But the pics below are not doctored or anything...for what that is worth.

I'd like to meet:

As far as dead people go, I would like to meet Abraham Lincoln, Oscar Wilde, Ernest Hemingway, and Mark Twain. And then, of course, there is always Tyler.
Alright, I decided I would like to meet Stephen Colbert.

My FRIENDS
.

Music:

Ringo. He has a fun name with little to no actual talent. The others have too much to choose between, so I chose the Beatle that there is no difficulty in picking.

I listen to so much music, I couldn't even begin to list it all. Some of my current favorites are 10 years, 12 Stones, AFI, Aerosmith, Ani DiFranco, As I Lay Dying, Atreyu, Audioslave, Avenged Sevenfold, Breaking Benjamin, Bree Sharp, Bush, Dave Matthews Band, Disciple, Dishwalla, Eisley, Element Eighty, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, From Autumn to Ashes, Flyleaf, Future Leaders of the World, Green Day, Gorillaz, Gwen Stefani, Hawthorne Heights, Ian Van Dahl, It Dies Today, John Legend, Lacuna Coil, Led Zeppelin, Louie Armstrong, Live, Marc Broussard, Metallica, Metric, Modest Mouse, Muse, Nirvana, No Doubt, Norah Jones, Pat Benetar, Pink Floyd, Plumb, POD, Queen, Queens of the Stone Age, Relient K, Rise Against, Sarah McLachlan, Smile Empty Soul, Stone Sour, System of a Down, Switchfoot, The Decemberists, The Donnas, The Killers, The Mars Volta, Theory of a Dead Man, Thornley, Thousand Foot Krutch, Trust Company, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and so, so, so many more.

Movies:

I have seen more movies than most people, but the only two that have really made a huge impression on me are The Pianist and Life is Beautiful. I am mildly obsessed with the the Holocaust.
I also love The Garden State, The Notebook, Mean Girls (that movie is hillarious) and When Harry Met Sally (my favorite comedy).
