About Me

Before looking for stuff on me, I suggest you look at a profile in my friends list title"Dean Karr Director / Photographer - We have worked together, but I just think he is an artist that is in my generation that will become super famous for his art. If you dig around you will be surprised at some of the stuff he has done. I think he deserves some recognition. AND NOW ABOUT ME: I made the Dean's List while attending FSU. I am recovered from a taxi cab accident where I was hit in the right leg while in a crosswalk in downtown DC on Oct 27th, 2006. In Jan of '08 I had a final third surgery, all metal was removed from my leg hoping the Fib/Tib bones had healed enough. June is just about to begin and I have really tried to line up all my ducks to begin to put my life back together. It has been a rough couple of years with lots of pain, depression and loneliness, but I have had good drugs to dull the pain (jk) I love APPLE/MAC since they have continued to put out amazing products that have kept me from being bored while I had been bedridden for so long. I have started posting some fun videos I have done, at youtube.com/russbusby. A friend of mine Stephen Murray was recently paralyzed and I am trying to think of a way to be helpful to him and his family. Maybe a benefit cd/dvd. Search his name in youtube if you want more info. Also, I am putting together a cooking CD "Miks One Pan Cooking" and if you like it spread the link around. Please stop by and say hello. Oh yeah I got a puppy in August of '06 east of cincinatti on route 50. I named her Fiddy Girl and she has been the best dog ever. i still need to post lots of pictures I have taken and of course my video clips. As soon as I can, As soon as I can.

My Interests

Videography, Photography, video editing. Directing videos, documentaries, commercials and shorts. I Love traveling, listening to music, helping people and doing things people don't expect.

I'd like to meet:

A little nice lady, maybe a blonde or brunette basket (full of goodies)

Music:

I have great music to listen to and I enjoy making time to expose myself to genre breaking artists, a pastime I must give my Dad credit for. If it wasn't for Pops, I would still think Baseball was America's favorite past-time. I am having a hard time getting some variation or rare tracks of the band Sublime out of my music player of choice (which changes daily.) Oh and I do like baseball. Didn't want anyone thinking otherwise. That was a very long way to say I love the band Sublime and the creative musical hodgepodge Brad Nowell was able to produce in his music.

Movies:

The one I am editing right now. I wrote, directed and now editing. This is some hard work. Singing in the Rain, and watching my Dads favorite movie (Like, Shane) with him.

Television:

All my favorite shows have been cancelled. Well there is Smallville (there I said it) which I like.

Books:

I just found a box of old schoolwork I did in highschool and I am enjoying going over book reports and comparing the "What was I thinking" or "How in the world did I get a B on that?" lol

Heroes:

I just got out of the hospital for hopefully my last surgery on my leg and I would like to send out love to: My Parents, my dog Fiddy, and all the people saying prayers for me and even the ones that aren't. Stephen Murray and what he has recently endured and his amazing attitude. I feel like I had a heavy load, but then I read about his accident and his family he must still support.
