About Me

I'm a tall goofy sort of fellow who hails from the south. Actually, it's so south, it's actually the north according to the rednecks. I am the oldest of three children and I have one nephew. All of my immediately family still reside in the sunshine state. I am evolving as a person, as I hope the rest of the populous is attempting. I have gone Vegan as a personal choice that reflects my personal ideas. If you aren't the "same," that's ok by me.Check out .:.:. hopfoto .:.:. v1.1a BetaIf your interested in doing volunteer work, but like me have an erratic schedule, try checking out New York Cares. It's a great orginazation that lets you do one hour a week, month, or year. What ever you can give.oh yeah, I cried before there was Emo, before it was cool.

My Interests

photography, museums, snowboarding, outdoors, people watching, accumulating vast amounts of trivial knowledge

I'd like to meet:

Interesting, Honest, Creative people who are open minded and try not to judge others. Someone who can be upfront and honest. Other people in photography/art.

I would not like to meet:

People don't know what they want, what is really important in this life, who they are, or how to be honest. Liars, un-trusting people, those who hurt others with no remorse, unaware people, those who except that which is spoon feed to them.
