About Me

What can I say? I try to enjoy life even though the world can be an evil place. I try to find the balance between what I want to do and what I should do. Some day I hope that I can get to the point where I WANT to do the things I should do. Meanwhile, there is nothing like relaxin' with your friends. Or headphones and some good tunes....I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

My Interests

Inline skating, WoW, Baseball, Custom PCs, Lan-Partying, Anime. TOKYO! Freakin' love TOKYO!, JR Yamanote Line, Miyazaki flicks, Cowboy Bebop soundtrack, Vince Guaraldi, Eddie Izzard, Jamming on my guitar when no one is home.

Music:

I listen to everything except hip-hop, rap, R&B after 1971, and most country. I guess I'm sort of a snob when it comes to music for myself but am very flexible when listning with others.

Redneck Producer Blog 3

Right now I'm looking for some cameras for Randy's pro-staff.  It needs to compact so it's not in the way of everyone's hunting gear.  I'm seriously thinking of recommending the Canon HV30.&...
