I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I work in advertising. I am married and live in Vancouver, Canada. Life is great - but I lived in the US for a while and sometimes I miss it. This is a way for me to try and stay in touch with some ooooold friends. Oh... I'm also really opinionated, so I can use this site to pop off once in a while.

My Interests

Advertising, Politics, NFL, NHL, Bikram's Yoga, rugby, Lost Experience, Mac stuff, gaming, cyber geekdom in general.

I'd like to meet:

A better question: Who did I just meet? AL GREEN, THAT'S WHO!! I never thought it would happen. How often in life does someone get to meet their favourite artist of all time? Pictured L to R: Donnie, AL GREEN, my wife Jordan, and Me.

Music:

INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO: Soul: Al Green, Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder // Rock: Rolling Stones, Soundgarden, Radiohead, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, System of a Down, Franz Ferdinand, Modest Mouse // Hip Hop: Kanye West, Fitty, Biggie, Snoop, N.E.R.D., Outkast // Other: Bob Marley, Feist. Also love to listen to BBC Radio One.

Movies:

LOTR, Star Wars Trilogy, Cohen Brothers Flicks, Goodfellas, Napoleon Dynamite, Clerks, Wes Anderson flicks, Heat, Trainspotting, Tarantino flicks, John Hughes Flicks, Guy Ritchie Flicks, anything written by Charlie Kaufman, The Shining. That's all I can think of right now. The list goes on, believe me.

Television:

LOST. The Simpsons. South Park. Arrested Development. Trailer Park Boys. The Sopranos. The Daily Show. Family Guy. My Name Is Earl. The Office (US. Haven't yet seen the UK version). And ECW! ECW! ECW!

Books:

Finished reading The Watchmen, the famous graphic novel by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. Honestly one of the best things I have ever read. I just read Bad Twin by 'Gary Troup' only because I'm such a Lost junkie. Disappointing.

Heroes:

Living: Al Green, Joe Montana, Bill Maher, Alex Bogusky, Mark Waites, Luke Sullivan, Neil French // Dead: MLK, Ghandi, Churchill, Kemal Ataturk, Lincoln, Franklin, Jefferson, JFK. Oh... and Jesus. Would He be under Living or Dead?
