About Me

Here it is... my opportunity to be a pretentious ass and tell everyone why they should be staring at my myspace page. Why you wanna know? Why you say? Damnit tell me why already, your screaming at me.. umm you don't have to shout mm k? Thanks. If your staring at this page I probably sent you the link and your either a customer/friend of mine in another state in which case you already know how big of a winner I am and you just wanted to make sure I conveyed that on this page (don't worry I did!) or your just some poor sap browsing myspace for friends, foes or someone to read about and make yourself feel better. You know I had to sign up for myspace because everyone I knew was talking about it and their pages. I guess this is the "hip" thing to do these days and frankly I don't want to be left out! So here it is folks.. for better or worse myspace! Check out my photos.. I'll probably upload some fresh ones from time to time. I do alot of photography even though I'm lame at it so I'll try to have freshly snapped nonlame photos for you to view. So check back often.. it'll be better than the last time you had an hot apple pie at McDonalds.. trust me. If your looking for a foe.. send me a private message, email or whatever the hell they call it on myspace and tell me why you wish smite me. It'll at least make you feel better. If your an old classmate from high school (yes apparently I'm not the only person from my high school to be on here) feel free to contact me.. even if we didn't talk in high school. Honestly I didn't talk to alot of people in high school but thats because I was a lamo and frankly I think uncool. Of course if your like me you've realized that your a completely different person than you were back then and we might even have something in common. Do I care if you don't email me... not really. Just putting that on the table, so there it is. Well now that my novella about who and why my myspace exists frankly I have nothing else left to say. Bravo to you if you read all the way through this.. if you didn't well.. congrats for having something better to do with your time. Great!, Grand!, Wonderful!EDIT 2007 UPDATE... my photography website is www.garage-jdm.com the links don't go anywhere at the moment if your a band (or some represenative of or just a weird fan), owner of a sweet ride (I had to say it), model or otherwise interested in having me do work for you email me at [email protected]. (If I get a filter full of spam because of some random person on myspace I'm just gonna flip. Random hate mail is still ok though.)

I want to run... I want to hide..

Grab another gear... point towards the orange moon and accelerate.  U2 slams off the inside of the car like a tidal wave across a tiny village. My mind wanders to thoughts of selfishness and self...
