About Me

I'm a tooth making, brewmeister wannabe who hates hypocrisy, jay-walkers with baby strollers, and shellfish of all kinds. Likes people who speak their mind reguardless of the consequences, walking in crunchy snow, and cookies of all kinds.... Yep, that's about it. td, span, div, input, table td div div font, body div table tbody tr td font {color:blue !important;} .nametext, .whitetext12, .lightbluetext8, .orangetext15, .blacktext12, .redtext, .redbtext, .blacktext10 {color:000000 !important;} a {color:blue !important; text-decoration:none !important; text-transform:none !important; font-weight:normal !important; font-style:normal !important;} a:hover {color:000000 !important; text-decoration:none !important; text-transform:none !important; font-weight:normal !important; font-style:normal !important;} img {border:0px;} .text {align:left} input {background-color:transparent !important;}
