Lemonade was a popular drink and it still is.

About Me

Peer pressure got me. Everybody's doing it, you know.

My Interests

I ride a vintage Honda motorcycle. I design videogames. I live in Pike Place Market. I like to paint, write, compose, sing, laugh, cook, kiss, discuss, tease, and live.

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet a girl that knows the difference between its and it's.Without looking it up, by the way.

Music:

When I was really young I listened to a lot of music that my older brother liked, so a lot of Howard Jones and Thompson Twins and such. When I was in high school I was really into the alternative/grunge rock scene, so I was into Pearl Jam and STP and such. Then I got way into rap, and that's what I primarily listen to now. Some of my favorite artists are Common, De La Soul, Lyrics Born, J-Live, Sir Mix-A-Lot, Slick Rick, Outkast, Tupac and Biggie. I also like classic rock like Thin Lizzy and The Rolling Stones and electronic music like Digweed and Sasha.Nowadays I just listen to whatever - I'm easy to please. I also pick up lyrics super easy so I know the words to like 10000 songs.

Movies:

Movies are tight. Commando is the best movie to watch drunk and cynical. The last movie I saw in the theater was Jarhead. The last movie I saw on a TV was Hoop Dreams.Sometimes I find I prefer the quicker plotlines of TV to movies. Yay, ADD generation!

Television:

Entourage, Deadwood, Dead Like Me, Sports Night, Carnivale, NBA Basketball, Sportscenter, Infomercials.

Books:

I like comic books. I also like real books. I've been reading lots of textbooks lately pertaining to digital painting. Not the most interesting shit to read, let me tell you. I'm also working on reading all my roomate's books, so stuff like 1984, Choke, My Friend Leonard.

Heroes:

Anyone who "keeps it real".

My Blog

myspace

Much like Friendster Myspace has become a haven for spam and abuse and now sucks. Why is there so little NBA action on television? Motherfuckers are playing the games, why not televise more of t...

Sports Bars and Jukeboxes

Jukeboxes do not fucking belong in sports bars. You can't have it both ways. You are either committed to watching sports or you're listening to a playlist assembled by drunks with too much money -&nbs...
