In order to become old and wise, one must first be young and stupid...

About Me


About Me:
I'm a guy who likes to do stuff... hike, work on cars, play guitar (and a plethora of other instruments), cook, watch movies, write poetry (and songs), eat Pocky, party, daydream, play video games, look at the stars, shoot pool, take pictures, drive around with the windows down on warm days, go to diners, go to concerts, go to brewpubs, eat, act goofy, pet my cat (Sprocket), sleep, watch flash cartoons, go to Target, drink Jones Soda, hang out with friends, play tennis, smoke cigars, drink coffee, the list goes on and on.
I recently became engaged to the girl of my dreams (Allison, whose profile you can check out in my top friends). Before you ask, we don't know when the wedding is yet, probably Spring 2009, if not later.
I just graduated from YTI Career Institute with a degree in Culinary Arts and Restaurant Management. I don't know what I'm going to do with it yet, I might get into catering but my ultimate goal is to open my own Irish Pub.
My Uncle and I just started an online Vinyl Graphics and T-Shirt business, so check us out at www.StickerCharged.com . If you need any t-shirts of vinyl graphics made for your car or your band or your business, or whatever, let us know!
