About Me

Ummmm, This is a toughie. CURRENT QOUTE OF THE DAY: "The fickle finger of fate, having fucked, moves on,"

My Interests

I'm into just about everything that has to do with being outdoors. I have a boat so I spend my weekends on Lake Lanier in the summer. I've decided to run a Triathelon this summer, so I'm training for it(Must be a quarter life crisis thing) I haven't a clue why I've decided to do it. but I am!!

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet Santa Clause, the Easter Bunny, and of course who wouldn't wanna sit down and have a chat with the Jolly Green Giant (why is he so damn jolly? he's green for gods sake), and I'd like to have a beer with Yosemite Sam (imagin that bar tab). If not one of the prior individuals maybe someone who isn't immature like myself, or isn't looking for a "Soul Mate", mainly I'm just lookin to meet new and interesting people. I cannot tell you who i'm lookin because I do not know.WHO I ADD AS FRIENDS: People I know, and people with interesting profiles. That means if you have Paris Hilton as one of your heros, your not gonna be added. Also, if your one of those people who insist on spelling words using a mixture of CaPiTAl and lOWeR case letters your not gonna be added. If your just using this as a popularity contest, ie. 2000 friends, your not gonna be added. If you do not know the difference between stupid and ignorant your not gonna be added.

Music:

All kinds, I have been listening to a lot of Texas Country lately. They have their own lil music scene out there, ie. Stoney Larue, Cross Canadian Ragweed, Jason Boland. I am concert hog. I'm stoked about the nice weather, it means the shows are about to get good. I also enjoy every thing from Ozzie, NIN, The Strokes, Rage Against the Machine, and The Black Crows are 1 of my all time favs. You can also find Sinatra, Harry Connike Jr., and numerous Blues artist in my collection.

Movies:

Favorite movies are, all the Monty Python flicks, most everyone of Eastwoods movies, the Burbs is a classic that I have a hard time changing if its on TV, another one I just have to watch once a year is a Christmas Story. Damn movie still cracks me up!! And I saw it in the theaters when I came out originally. Adam Sandlers early stuff, and anything with Miss Angelina Jolie. "Why is it? When i'm in the kitchen, you're in the kitchen. Eatin up all the food. I like pigs feet! I like hog jowls!"

Television:

I'm a LOST junkie, the Sopranos, Deadwood, and any of the late night shows that are on FX.

Books:

I'm a voracious reader. I typically have 2/3 books going at the same time. Just finished reading Ayn Rands "The Fountainhead" for a 2nd time. She is great. For novelist I like Stephen Hunter, W.E.B. Griffin, and Tom Clancy. I will read just about anyone if it keeps me interested. I have recently started rereading some of the classics I was forced to read in college and high school to see if I enjoy them more now that I'm not forced to read them. Some I have enjoyed and some are just as difficult to get through now as they were the 1st time, most notibly Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe"

Heroes:

Ayn Rand, Viva la Reagan, Ron Jeremy(ok, Ron isn't one of my heros but the country and system we live in is, where else but in America can a short, hairy, fat guy make a living having sex with beautiful women), oh and Jimmy Buffet for President
