I am here for Friends

About Me



These are places in the world I have visited. Hopefully one day there will be more red dots covering the map

"SPEEDOS"

I am very easy going. I am living life one day at time enjoying the things I am fortunate enough to have as well taking advantage of the things around me.
To be continued.
I like to eat

Good bye my friend....you have shown me so much, you have taken me places no one else has. I will never forget you....you are now in a better place. [I sold it]

This was my last ride.....a ride to the dealership to sell my bike....such a sad day (Don't worry, I didn't wear shorts & sandals...i'm not an idiot)

My Interests

Snowboarding, eating, hitting people with paintballs, pokHER ♠♥ ♣ , choppers, motorcycles, waterpolo, going to the range, dogs (puppies) and eBay

I'd like to meet:

Drama-free, chill people to hang out with. People with no old baggage preferred. Snowboarders are a plus

Television:

SOPRANOS, COPS, Simposons, WPT, and the DISCOVERY Channel" "

Books:

I have "open-book syndrome"....as soon as I open a book i fall asleep....serious shit
However...a few of my favorites are Four Agreements and White Boy Shuffle.
Also, i can't forget Kaplan's PCAT book....i've read that gigantic book cover to cover MANY times...
