Surfing. I love to surf, though I wish I was better. I go when I can, which isn't nearly often enough. I ride a 5'11" squash tail. I'm into punk and ska and try to see as many shows as time and money allow. I skate on occation, but lack anything that might resemble skill. I play soccer. I'm gettin into golf. I snowboard whenever I can. I drink with friends. Not a huge fan of bars. I dig on food, but people tell me I don't eat enough. I draw. I want to be an illustrator when I grow up, which should have been a while ago, but hasn't seemed to have happend yet.
Kelly Slater, Jim Lee, Kalani Rob, Frank Miller, Cory Lopez, J. Scott Campbell, Rob Machado, and a bunch of other people you've never heard of.

Other bands who I've seen live and totally dig include: No Use For A Name, Lagwagon, Less Than Jake, Alkaline Trio, Mad Caddies, Aquabats, NOFX, the Voodoo Glow Skulls, Catch 22, Brand New, Rise Against, Thrice, Saves the Day, Reel Big Fish, FenixTX, Dropkick Murphies, Suicide Machines,The Bled, Instant Winner, and MXPX.

I also dig Sublime, 311, Matchbook Romance, Monty Are I, Taking Back Sunday, Rufio, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Rancid, Larse Fredricson and the Bastards, Silverstien, Save Ferris, and a whole bunch more.

I watch sports with my dad whenever I have a chance, but my job has a tendancy to get in the way of that. I dig on baseball and football, but I don't have the attention span to sit through a game of basketball. Only the last five minutes are important. I watch surf, skate, wakeboard, and snowboard comps by myself, though they are rarely telivised. Big fan of the EPL. GO LIVERPOOL!
I don't read a whole tone, but I remeber enjoying Where the Wildthings Are, A Light on in the Attic, James and the Giant Peach, Where the Sidewalk ends, Ricky Ticky Tavy, Kotic the White Seal, Jungle Book, Huck Finn, Tom Sawyer, and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. More recently in high school I've read Loard of the Rings, 1984, Dante's Inferno (from the Divine Comedy which I will eventualy finish), the Mysterious Stranger, and the Diary of Adam and Eve. In comunity college I read Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, and Neuromancer. Crime and Punishment rocks so hard, but I can't get into The Brothers Karamozov. Mostly I read comics (books and strips). I recomend Calvin and Hobbes and Fox Trot. As far as comic books go, I dig on stuff by Jim Lee (Punisher War Journal, X-Men, WildC.A.T.S., Divine Right, Batman, and Batman and Robin the Boy Wonder), Greg Capullo (Spawn), J. Scott Campbell (Gen13 and Danger Girl), Mark Silvestri (Wolverine, Cyber Force, Witchblade, The Darkness, Hunter Killer) and Todd McFarlane (Spiderman and Spawn) for art. You can't beat Frank Miller (Batman: Year One, Batman the Dark Knight Returns, Sin City, 300, and Batman and Robin the Boy Wonder) for story or plot line or whatever you want to call it.
BatMan, Wolverine, Spiderman
