Racing, photography, great local music, more racing (doing it, not watching it)
Music
From smooth jazz to heavy as hell rock. I can listen to most of it.
Local music is what I listen to the most now. You'll see (or not) in my friend's list occupy my CD player.
Support local music.
Here is some hand held video from Till We Die.

Movies
Sly Stallone should be beaten for the movie 'Drivin'. I haven't been to the movies since I saw that wreck. More so because of lack of time. I have 35 movie channels at home, so I do get to see many types of movies. Some of my favs; 'Beevis & Butthead Do America', 'South Park, Uncut...', & 'Baseketball'
A lot of Steven King way back in High School
"DW, A Lifetime Going Around in Circles"
Reading
"The Wal*Mart Effect" and
"Gotta Race" by Kenny Schrader
"Let 'Em All Go!" by Chris Economaki
How about magazines:
Grassroots Motorsports
SportsCar (SCCA)
Heroes
Um, there's Superman, Spiderman, Batman, um Wonder Woman......... Oh you mean who's MY hero.
Seriously, anyone who defends our country. I don't care if you agree with the war or not.
SUPPORT THE TROOPS!!!
Like one of my best friends, Gimpy. Who served over in Afgan.
Jon Hersey, who served in Iraq.
Men and women in uniform that have been pulled away from their lives and families so we can enjoy our daily freedoms.
That's who my HEROS are!! Dope - Die Motherfucker Die
About me: Thanks to my friend Bree, I new have a new 'toy'. It's called a Chumby. It's like the next generation alarm clock. Here's what one looks like:

go to www.chumby.com to get your own.
I've been a fan since I was little. Racing to me is like sex; I'd rather do it than watch it (not that watching is a bad thing ;) ). I've been involved in SCCA events for years now. Click here for my web site. You can get details on my races there.

"Racers Prayer"
Lord,
I pray as I race today,
Keep me safe along the way.
Not only me,
but the others too,
As they perform the jobs they do.
I know God,
that in every race,
I, the driver must set the pace.
Let not my desire for more speed,
Warp my judgement and turn into greed.
From green to checkered,
guide me through.
Giving me strength to know what to do.
Remind me often in the race of life,
How to cope with all the strife.
Help me accept the wins I may receive,
And all the defeats,
most graciously.
Ride with me,
don't allow me to lag,
Guide me all the way to the checkered flag.

Want to go to a race? I have passes (no not to NASCAR) for SCCA events in New England. Print out what you need (of the pass below) or get them off the web site (same thing, print what you need).
NEW PASSES FOR 2009 AVAILABLE IN THE SPRING 09
I have details as to where and when to use the passes, along with some tips on the web site.
When I can't go race, no doubt there's racing on my TV. Speed TV has been in my house since it was 2 weeks old. Sports car racing will always be my passion, but usually anything motorized I'll watch racing. When it comes to NASACR, Greg Biffle and Carl Edwards are the guys I'm pulling for. Mark left the Ford family, so he's on his own.
I consider myself a "nice guy", but I have an evil and sadistic sense of humor at times. Hanging in my group of friends is nothing but entertaining and insane. I belive in having fun, and I hate people who are assholes.
Lately I've been hooked on the bands Cherry S/T
Till We Die, Apethetiq & Souls Harbor (on my friends list here so go check them out). I would rather go see a local band play than a 'national' act. *Rita Las Vegas* introduced me to here. Thanks to her I'm discovering many cool local bands and meeting great people.
While searching around, I found the "EVIL" survey. So to those who said I wasn't "EVIL", you were right....
Who I'd like to meet: I'm getting sick of the myspace bim-bots that want you to go see their adult site. If I want porn, I know where to find it, so DON'T need your help.
Those looking to just 'pad' their myspace friends list need not apply either.
Any bands that want to request me is cool. I love local bands and music. I'll listen to your jukebox 1st. If I'm not into your music, I might not add you.
I do look at all profiles that request an add. If there's an intrest I will ok it. I don't want to sound snobby, because I'm not. I just don't want to be over run or look like a myspace whore.
The types of people I'd like to meet:
People that don't suck! And I mean suck in a bad way. Assholes stay away. Don't need snobs either. Cool, fun, and happy people only. Life is too short to put up with stupid people.
Trust me : 2moro will be a better day my friend!!! Sending you a MySpace hug!!! Thank you so much for helping Jed with the party - e-mailing him when I was suspicious, etc! Such a good friend!!! Thank you for coming to my party, for continuing to serve me- I THINK I'VE BECOME A STRAWBERRY MARGARITA!!!

Hey you!!! It's 3 am so you must be getting up for work now!! In case I forget to call you today, I was wondering if you have plans this coming saturday? I was wondering if you could attend the event I'm going to in Newton NH on Saturday. Please call me for details. Thanks, K
