About Me

I'm just a regular guy trying to keep it as gangsta as possible (Inside Joke). I love playing the drums and I love V-Dubs (on my 3rd one). I'm still trying to finish school, trying to earn some dough, too. I guess I'm a pretty regular guy, but, I definitely have a lot of my own views. I'm tolerable of most things, but can't stand stupidity and people who lack common sense. I work a "normal" 9-5 (6 in my case), but I try not to fall into that same mundane routine of life that makes society like a colony of worker bees, ya know what I mean? People just running around, not stopping to think of what they're really doing. Not taking the time to think of themselves. You know, the "team players", the office drones, the followers. Doing just what they're told and what everyone expects and so on and so forth... I know, I'm nuts...

My Interests

I play the drums A LOT. I love baseball. I love football. I golf as often as possible. I like to workout and box a little bit. I love V-Dubs (thats Volkswagens for people who don't know). I'm on my third one already; an '03 GLI (check out my pics). I listen to music all the time. I like to read, and I like to write. I enjoy mixing in politics and hope to some day get more of my ideas out there, maybe write a book or some type of manifesto.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone in the music business or in a chill band or anybody looking to jam out. A real solid bass player who can do some funky slappin'. Anyone who drives a Dub. Just cool people who fight the good fight and like to get down.
