My name is Erik, friends call me E-Double, E-Dub, E-Dog, and my mother calls me BooBoo. I was born and raised in the Bronx and I'm currently still a Bronx resident. My parents moved up to Poughkeepsie about 10 years ago and I lasted 2 months. I guess I'm a city type of guy for now until maybe I have my own family. I'm currently single and no children. I love kids and the family life; I'm just waiting for the right person to start my own. Right now I work in the poker industry. I worked in retail for 11 years, everyone from The Wiz, to CompUSA, to PC Richards. I'm tired of the 60 hour work weeks, mandatory weekends & holidays, and no life. I enjoy my Friday & Saturday nights and I was killing myself trying to do both. Now I get to enjoy life, go to the beach, party the night away, and best of all, SLEEP afterwards.I am a huge Yankee fan. I try to go to as many games as I can every year. I hate Boston. If you're a Boston fan, I feel sorry for you...
I enjoy the club life but really prefer the lounges and bars. I enjoy socializing and making everyone laugh. I've been like that since grammar school, ask anyone. I always try to bring everyone together and have a good time. I'm usually the one makin' all the phone calls, sendin' the emails, and even spotting the broke and willing. Money is important, but it's not everything. As each day passes, and after every wake or funeral I attend, realize life is too short and time cannot be made up, but money can.
Just got back from Puerto Rico for Memorial Day Weekend. I already knew what to expect after Miami, but DAMN! Wouldn't have been possible without Aris puttin' all the pieces together.
The weather was unbelievable even though we made it rain in ALL the clubs and I was very fortunate to meet some great people out there. Yeah, we met another LA crew and they were mad cool. Big thank you's to Stratta security for holdin' us down and workin' while we were partyin'. Good lookin' C-Lo, Nyse, & Camilo for puttin' up with us and our Woah Woah Woah requests, you know that's our joint. Thank you also goes out to all the photographers out there who helped us remember this trip and share it...
I honestly don't even know where to start with this one. I got slides from the clubs, the pool, the beach, & the wet T shirt contest, don't worry, identities are hidden, but if you were there, you know who participated... and won. Hit up my pics and leave a comment on these...
I celebrated my birthday this year with my boys F Diddy and Aris at Club Home in the city. Not one person was left sober! If it wasn't for Pace, I probably wouldn't of had any pictures at all. Thank you everybody for partying hard with us on a Sunday night, including you Fab!!!
I went to South Beach for the Winter Music Conference back in March and the trip was amazing. We lived in Wet Willies in the day time and went clubbin' every night. Mansion has to be the hottest club I've ever been to in my life and DJ AM is sick. Check out the youtube video above to get a taste of what we experienced first hand!

....THE PERFORMANCE & CAKE...

I like to play domino's, if you have a partner and you're up to the challenge, let me know. I also like to to go to the casinos and play poker, you're most likely to bump into me at the Borgata.
I'm a beach bum, but would rather go to a pool if I had the choice. I like to go the movies and I like to go on road trips. I've driven to Vermont, Boston, Virginia, and Florida. I've been to Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, and the Bahamas and if I could have driven there, I would of.
I go camping at least once a year. It sounds funny, but it's a lot of fun. Don't knock it till you try it.
If I had to compare myself to someone it would have to be Han
from Fast and Furious 3. In the movie he was very calm & collective and observed everything around him. He hardly ever spoke unless needed, but when he needed to, he got his point across clearly. He was a very good judge in character and always had people around him and they respected him. He used lines like "Life's simple, you make choices and you don't look back." and "50% of something is better than 100% of nothing." My favorite has to be "It's trust and character that I need around me... Who you choose to be around you lets you know who you are."
I'm looking to meet new people and create new friends and contacts here on MySpace. Don't be shy to send an email or leave a comment before you leave. Think of it as advertising for yourself. I'll try to return the love as soon as possible...
