Football, Texas Hold'em Poker, watching the Reds lose, DJing, drinking in the Valley, photography, writing...
And I now officially consider myself a photographer after I bought this sexy piece of kit - the Canon 30D:
Whether I'm a GOOD photographer or not, is another matter...but make your own mind up by checking out my commercial photography space on Flickr: Carbon Images.

And finally...I write. Lots and lots and lots. So much so that I put everything up on a website for everyone to see. If you feel so inclined, check it out here. Comments via this site are more than welcome.
Patrick Stewart, Chris Cornell, Aaron Lennon, Thom Yorke, Jack Black, Maggie Thatcher, Ringo Starr, Freddie Flintoff, Kofi Annan, Jeremy Irons, Ricky Gervais, Jenna Jameson, Stevie Wonder, The Rock (yes, yes I know that's sad...), Cartman, Johnny Wilkinson, Homer, and many many more.

"This pagoda was the center of anti-government protest in the 1960s and the home of the monk Quang Duc, who became an international symbol of resistance by immolating himself in Saigon. To this day it is possible to see the Blue Austin car that Quang Duc rode to Saigon. The band, Rage Against the Machine, features a picture of the inmolation on an album cover."
