About Me

ModMySpace Profile Customizer After spending my formative years collecting CFSA little league trophies in northwest Houston, I headed to the northern plains of Indiana for reasons that I'm still trying to figure out. Presently I'm writing an epic poem detailing the social significance of Moore funday, Texans football jackets and featuring Coach Cahee as the Deus ex machina of my young adult life.
In college, I honed my skills as I became more obnoxious, self involved and crass. Highlights included stealing a party sub during the Dillon Christmas SYR, serving Killians to the underage masses of SMC students, MarioKart tournaments, beer runs with Doug Gottlieb, employment at Coach's, breaking basement doors and jamming to the Umphrey's McGee precursors, Stomper Bob and the 4x4s/Toshi Station.
I now reside in Chicago, and generally speaking, kick a lot of ass.
I heart Charlie Steiner....follow him to freedom
This requires no explanation, bask in it's glory

Nick Lachey
Herodotus
