Music. Bar chords. Drawings of people in flamboyant spandex attire. Sequential art and story telling. Rafting drunk at night. SCUBA diving and underwater videography, especially in bizarre locales like rivers and lakes, though I don't really have a dive buddy anymore. Who wants to go?
SAAB, like the 71' below, which I just bought in San Diego and attempted to drive all the way back. I ended up spending my evening in a Santa Barbara motel room, and taking a nine hour train ride back home the next day. The car is still in Santa Barbara. That's not me in the video.
Brazillian Jui-Jitsu, MMA, indoor rock climbing/bouldering, getting tattooed, playing Matamp, Orange, and Fender amplifiers with Gibson and Rickenbacker guitars, beer, whiskey, gawking at hipster girls in the mission, walking the halls of San Francisco art museums over and over again, tropical fish and aquariums - just don't fucking ask me for any advice about yours (See my Giant Aaron profile), anything oceanic and nautical in nature - I know way more about sharks than you do.
