About Me


“A person should set his goals as early as he can and devote all his energy and talent to getting there. With enough effort, he may achieve it. Or he may find something that is even more rewarding. But in the end, no matter what the outcome, he will know he has been alive.” - Walt Disney
Welcome to all of you! My name is Jason but my friends either call me J or some even know me as Frenchie!. I was born and raised in Brunswick where I currently work and live. I sometimes think I have lived here too long. Do I need to get out, move and explore other opportunities? ABSOLUTELY! I think FL has my name all over it!
So, I guess if you,ve gotten this far, you might actually be interested in hearing a little more about me... Ok, here goes. You already know where I live, but what do I do, or like to do? I work in I.T. and spend a lot of time studying, learning and helping others with anything that has to do with computer technology. Unlike the stereotype of others in my field I love the outdoors but I'm not to fond of the terrible New England winters (see the little message about Florida above). I've lived here my entire life and I have never liked them. After New Year, in my opinion, summer can come, or at least Spring. Most of the activities that I like to do really should be done in the Summer such as kayaking, golfing and mountain-biking. Winter makes me feel like a slouch, but I guess that's why I go to the gym. I also love to travel. I am always ready to travel (as long as the funds are there) and I love to drive, not necessarily fast but just drive, say road trip and I'll say when, the where doesn't really matter that much. Just say the word. I've seen the entire East Coast, Colorado, New Mexico, California, Montreal, Quebec, Nova Scotia, all of New England, London and Ireland and I don't plan ..ping there. I am currently looking forward to my trip back to San Francisco in August and am trying to find a way back to Orlando at some point this year. (Anyone want to go?)
My dear Reader, you must still be entranced by what I have to say, so I guess I'll tell you just a little bit more about me. I was born on the 13th of June which means that I am a Gemini. My personality is right on target with the traits of the zodiac. Especially my strange, seemingly multiple personalities! (I have long conversations with myself and sometimes can't even tell myself to stop talking!) Now, back to what makes me tick. I work in Information Technology, I am a computer geek but I also have a pulse. I love going out and having a good time, hanging out at my favorite bar, going to the movies, just being around people. At first I may not seem to be good conversationalist but that just means that I'm listening and learning so that I can try to fit in with any given conversation (but it always seems that people laugh at me no matter what I say. Is that a good thing? I guess you'll have to be the judge.) Seriously though, my friends call me to talk because they know that I'll listen. I rarley forget the important things in my freind's lives as well as my own, no matter how small. Well, for now I'll stop babbling to spare your eyes from staring at this on and on so let me know if you want to learn more. Send me a message, comment or .....

Some of you know that I dabble in photography as a hobby. I have started posting the pictures that I have taken on Flickr until I have time to create my own photo site. In case you are interested, click here! . Let me know what you think!
Okay, I have created a beta version of my website with some of my photo galleries on them. Click Here to check them out.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


Jennifer Love Hewitt is high on my list of someone I'd like to meet, of course I would probably just babble and stumble around like an idiot, but still...

Here's some behind the scenes of Jennifer's new commercial!

And of course, bring out the red-heads. I have this thing for red-heads, not sure why, I just do.

Seriously, there are famous people that I would like to meet and there are people that have passed on that I would give the world to meet and to talk with. Everyday there are opportunities to meet and to talk to someone that we didn't know before and who we may want to meet again. Everyday we have the opportunity to make a difference in someone's life and we may not even know it. Just a simple smile or a kind ear or even a look can make someone you meet want to see you again.
