50% Calgary...50% SoCal...100% BAD ASS

About Me


Welcome to my page...and thanks for taking the time to read a bit about me. I'm not like a lot of other people on here. I joined MySpace two years ago and it completely changed my life. I quit my job, moved south and lived with Bad Ass Frank and the rest of the Bad Ass Crew a block from Venice Beach. Some of the best times in my life.
I've since moved back to Calgary and now own a mixed martial arts gym called "Calgary Fight Club - MMA" with two other buddies. I coach and train mixed martial arts and manage fighters.
MOST IMPORTANTLY: I'm the proud father of the most amazing girl in the world...Jasmine. Look through my pics and you'll know who I'm talking about. She's truly the light of my life.
DISCLAIMER: I take pride in the melting pot of people in my corner. Diversity is something to be embraced in my world.
If you want to judge me by my friends...then just move on. I have friends from every walk of life. From pornstars and strippers to engineers and accountants. From celebrities and promoters to average everyday people. Black, white, gay, straight...I don't care. Do me a favor and take the time to read some of my blogs and check out some of my friends' profiles as well. You may not be so quick to judge a book by it's cover.
I don't "add request" people very often...so if I did it to you...it's because I find something interesting and worthwhile. I'm not here to spam people, sell you anything or get laid...I've already got a successful business and a hot ass girlfriend.

Nope...not Big Jake. This is just Jake.

I've thought a lot about myspace recently and what exactly it's done for me. The good, the bad...the highs...the lows...the drama...the fun. It's all there. Myspace has changed my life for the bette...

Reunited and it feels so good....

When I was 10 years old...I was living in California and going to a Catholic school called St. Perpetua's. And no...it wasn't like the Catholic schools we have nowadays. We are talking straight up gre...

Ready...AIM...total misfire.

Starting my second week at the Bad Ass Beach Pad, I woke up one morning with a tingling in my throat. No big deal...it's a bit hot outside...perhaps I'm a tad bit parched. Early afternoon, hmm..incr...

Back in the "guillotine" of things....

Being that my life in the last month has been turned upside down...it was good to get back in the swing of things at the gym tonight. I had to leave my class in the very capable hands of my top stude...
