Myspace BackgroundsMEET MY NEPHEW CALEB!!!
i've seen most of the 50 states but have lived here my entire life....i bought a house in kingston but don't see myself living here forever. I'm really hesitant to change but when i do it's a complete 180....i can generally get along with anyone because i have an eclectic mix of likes...but i choose to hang out or get to know better, people who are different...original...stand out from all of the clones in this valley of the dulls...not to sound cheesy but i am a big believer in fate...in that i mean i rarely ever consider myself at an end and not just at a means to a new end...if that makes sense. i'm a better writer than i am a speaker...but have horrible grammar and am an even worse speller...i like to link thoughts with dots...i see the number 23 everwhere...haha and now someone made a movie about it...crazy... sometimes i feel like i have lived about 6 lives....or i can separate my years into different eras....each with different likes and disslikes....and with vastly different day to day routines....this is finally becomming one of my favorite!!! i honestly do appreciate life and am sometimes amazed by things that people take for granted day-to-day but i do tend to see the worst in a lot of things especially people and their behaviors...at one point in my life i was a lot more political but am burning out in my old age...I'LL BE PUSHING STRONG TO GET OBAMA NOMINATED THOUGH!!!! hopefully one day i will own my own bar...i have a lot of great ideas but think i need 3 or 4 more years of just normal bartending and overall maturing before i take the chance. if you want to visit or assassinate me you can find me at the river street ale house explaining the difference between an unfiltered german wheat beer and an overhopped american style belgian white beer to someone who normally drinks miller lite....my other passions include: independent/underground music and all kinds of movies...i'm also a closet jock...especially the phillies and 49ers...i like to go to parties (crazy cara and stas's are the best!!!) more than bars unless they are in philly or chicago....if i throw a party i don't enjoy them at the time but love to tell the story after everything is cleaned up, my windows are replaced and i realize that some of my guests were on the howard stern....i was a lot more creatively active than i am now (i did a record label, music interview fanzine, yearly music festivals, promoted shows and was the music director at WCLH Wilkes University...not to mention being a dj for 7 years as well) but the right people can and have brought that out in me again from time to time....those are the people who i would like to meet the most!
