About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.1 Mostly I'm busy supporting and taking care of my kid(a great yet feisty 12 year old),3 dogs and a'61 Ford Galaxie (desirable 2 door!). In my whopping 7 or 8 years of experience in driving, I've also had a '66 Rambler, '55 DeSoto and a flamingo pink '71 Newport, affectionately known as "the Anti-Chrysler"! I've got a BFA in painting & printmaking -not a smart career move... I'm an animal lover and appreciate nature...Not at all a bikini clad sun worshipper, but I love the ocean and need to move closer to it ASAP! I have that hand in hand interest in history and most things vintage. I can't play an instrument, but I couldn't live without music. Oh yeah,and i've been getting tattooed for 23 years now. I enjoy smelling like Chanel and motor oil. I also really like to collect HotWheels(only the ones I'd like to drive,though)and I'm a caffeine addict(dark roast, please)...

My Interests

I love old cars, old music, antiques in general. I hate seeing cool old buildings torn down and replaced with strip malls,or old chrome crushed... I was born in the wrong decade, just can't figure out which one it should've been!

I'd like to meet:

Little Richard and the Dali Lama. And a soul mate would be nice...

Music:

I rarely have cable and don't watch much tv....I am somewhat of a news junkie though. Most of the time, I'd rather be listening to NPR.

Books:

Al Franken's "Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them-A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right". I love the big nonfiction "coffee table" books on old cars,music,art & history. . Currently working on A History OF Pirates by Nigel Cawthorne. Magazines are a great quick fix...Rod & Kulture, Car Kulture Deluxe, Custom Rodder,and Smithsonian for example!

Heroes:

in honor of the Super Bowl,which i didn't pay any attention to...I'll list my sports super heroes: Bunny Burkett,Jay Adams, Secretariat and Evil Knievel
