About Me

I look around the world and see so much that needs fixing. I believe it my responsibilty to use what skills and talents I have to step up and say something.

Hopefully people listen.

I am a writer. I'm working on a book. For details have a look at my blog.

I'm a web designer. I enjoy using this medium to express myself and my creative ideas.

I never thought I'd actively use myspace. Although I've come in contact with a number of people that I thought I'd never speak to again. It's rather gratifying.

Feel free to say hello. Feel free to offer me a job writing things for you. Feel free to ask advice.

Feel free.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

You, if we haven't met already, that is.

Just a relocation...

So, these two pictures are hilarious. Snopes.com indicates that the first is most certainly a hoax. The second may or may not be fabricated (see comment below). Either way, funny. Kelly left the first...

Stolen from my boy Josh...
