About Me

There isn't alot to be said about me....on second thought there is a lot. I just don't want to seem egotistical. LOL
I am a first generation Croatian-Canadian (Za Dom! Spremni! Spremni! Spremni!) living in the A2. I love having a diverse ethnic background....I find it gives me balance in terms of seeing things that other ppl may not. My dad is from a little village outsid of Split called Ruda...and my mom is from just outside Sibenik. I haven't been back in quite a while and am due for a trip to the home land.
I like to play alot of different sports. Hockey, Basketball, Volleyball and soccer. Since I am realatively new to the A2 area I haven't really found any leagues to join. So if anyone needs a player...let me know. I just like getting out there and being active.
I have recently picked up the guitar after a 20 year hiatus....long story. Though I am having some difficulty just sitting down and playing.
I have two little ones....Dodge and Max. Their my cats. I wasn't really keen on having pets. After never having one before. But there is something about those two little $hIt$ that makes me laugh. When I get a chance i'll post some pictures of the two of them.

My Interests

The usual....spending time with the most amazing woman....and my best friend. That is of course my wife Emily. Hi Babez!

I like to watch sports....Cowboys...Canadiens...U of M..Hajduk Split...Cro National Team....etc

I like to spend time with my friends....and though living in A2 has diminished that time a little. It jsut makes the time I do get to spend with them that much more.

And by my screen name....I love my Jeep...it is the greatest vehicle appropriate for every occasion. Just drive one. You'll see.

My newest thing is learning to play guitar...though I am on a bit of a hiatus

I'd like to meet:

Just looking to meet like minded and un-like minded people. I always enjoy meeting new people and getting to know them. I would really like to meet more ppl from A2. Especially those that play sports for rec...like soccer...volleyball....b-ball. I'd like to get involved in some of the leagues in the area. Co-Ed..Rec...Competitive...anything really.Basically this is an open invitation for anyone to say "hi" or "what the fuck?"

Music:

Being born in the early seventies and the fact that my uncle & older cousin got their hooks into me at an early age. I like a pretty diverse range of music.

I like it all....I think that genres limit you....it should be if the song does something for you...it's good!

Admittedly I listen to country, rock, punk, metal, alternative, jazz, blues...you get the picture. The only thing I can't get into is the crap manufactured American Idol style of music. It is shall we say like "Soylent Green" If you don't get the reference....please google it.

Movies:

Star Wars...Star Wars...Star Wars

Sci-Fi is not the only kid of movie I like....like my music my movie taste is equally diverse.

Television:

Thank God for my TiVo!!!! If it wasn't for that wonderful little box I would never get to watch any of my favorite shows. And if any of you men out there can't get your significant other to buy into the TiVo thing....just buy one and hook it up. I guarantee in a few weeks you won't be able to pry the TiVo remote out of their hands...

My wife won't let me control it anymore b/c I can't fast-forward through the commercials as fast as she can....LOL

Books:

I recommend the Harry Potter series....I like many other ppl tried to rebel and not read it....but my wife being in the book business. She's a buyer for Borders. [SHAMLESS PLUG]

BUY BOOKS @ BORDERS!!!!

I liked the Beatles Anthology book. And a whole group of others....

I plan on writing some reviews later...

Heroes:

The Waynes.....(Gretzky and Campbell) "The Flower" Guy LaFleur The Beatles....yes even Ringo MJ...His Airness....just amazing My Dad

i'll add more later
