We are what we repeatedly do.

About Me

I like to laugh a lot and it's usually at myself. I try to surround myself with characters and people with character. That and I need to get out more. Left too many friends behind and moved here from MPLS last winter. Still explorin' the city....I like to get up sunrise early as much as I like to stay out late. Haven't been going out much lately and I'm realizing that I'm happiest in the morning when the day's fresh. I'm pretty much comfortable in any atmosphere. Music makes my leg shake in this contagious way that quickly spreads to the rest of my body. Softshoe!!! I'm personable to a fault at times. I sip whiskey and I get the munchies. I'm funny, playful and witty with a deep side. They call that a Pisces! One quick thing about the people on my "Friends List". They're all people I've met face to face and probably laughed with or had a drink with if not both. I've seen most of the bands and DJ's on there so I kinda feel like I've met them. I like to keep it real.D. Myspace Layouts Myspace Generators Myspace CodesMyspace Layouts

My Interests

Art Direction, Design, Design software, out of the ordinary people, odd and obscure facts about nature and science. I can't go long without listening to live music. Clubs, Lounges, Dive Bars. Not really a sports bar guy. I love camping, the boundary waters, beaches and a good fire. I'm not afraid of double black diamonds or jumping off of the occasional cliff.

I'd like to meet:

People that want me to dazzle them with my freelance graphic design/art director abilities! People that have good karma and PMA. Friends that I've lost contact with and friends that I've never met.Other than that I tend to gravitate to the craziest people in the room. They're having the most fun.The slide show below is of a few places I'd like to be and things I like to see. I wish I could say that I shot any of them but I didn't. They're from the professional and not so professional photographers on Flickr. It's a great place for visual inspiration.

Music:

Strictly Polka!

Movies:

What do you suggest? I like 'em funny or fantasy.

Television:

Way too much lately! So I'm switching over to internet exploration. If you like looking at cool photography, or what I think is cool anyway, check out Flickr and do a search for HDR.

Books:

Favorite authors would be Hunter S. Thompson, Chuck Palahniuk, Ann Rice (The Vampire Chronicles), Tolkien, Kurt Vonnegut, Bukowski, and whatever I can borrow from friends.

Heroes:
