About Me

Hi. I am not lactose intolerant.

For past news and events from my crazy life, and pictures documenting the sillyness visit: Mikey's Old Extravaganza

My Interests

I love music (see Music), live, recorded or performing myself. I have an outrageous amount of movie knowledge, I don't know why. Some people say that they've caught me watching Extra or Entertainment Tonight or one of those shows on numerous occasions, but I rarely do... really. I recently discovered my love of hiking and the outdoors. I also enjoy climbing trees, laying in hammocks, doing the backstroke, and laughing.

I'd like to meet:

.......pictures of me with big ass trees? I'm not quite sure this fits under this section, but I'll look into it.

Music:

I love music (see Interests). If I had to rate my top 4 bands currently it would be:

I took this picture in 2004 at the Mod Club in Toronto, he's so cute

I took this picture at the Oakland Arena in 2005, he is quite shorter than I pictured

I did not take this picture

I guess I didn't really even rate them, that was just a bunch of pictures and silly text...

I took this picture about 30 minutes before my toe exploded

Movies:

LOTR, Memento, American Beauty, Edward Scissorhands, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Back to the Future I and II, Chasing Amy, and so on and so forth...

Television:

I haven't really been watching much television over the past couple years, but I really got into Six Feet Under during it's last season and now I watch reruns whenever possible.

That show is the best thing that has ever been on television.

24. That show is like a soap opera for guys. It seems I also watch Rescue Me.. I like firefighters.... oh yeah and I just got into Lost, which is phenominal, so it would appear I do watch my fair share of tv.

Books:

I don't really have a favorite book that I have read over and over, so I will just list the books I've read in the last year of so: The Rum Diary, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, the Kite Runner, the Lovely Bones, and the Tipping Point. I just started the Elegant Universe. Oh yes, I forgot, and the Bible.

Heroes:

Fuck that.... I am just going to use this section for my pictures, since I consider myself to be a professional photographer.

Airports
