TAKE NOTE - I promise I will get back to you on here fairly quick, but it may take me a moment to hit you back at times!
Music

(Usually I just tend to check out Animal Planet and maybe The History Channel when browsing)

Major: I'm Quite A Bit Of A Slacker - I Haven't Went Back To Finish Up Yet
About me: If you know me from my "Human Life", then it's probably from around Northridge, Dayton, or New Orleans. If you know me through various electronical means, than it's most likely as a fight fan & you know me as the guy who runs MySpace MMA here on this particular site. You could also perhaps know me from the interviews that I do with people that you may or may not know of yet (but that you should definitely know about regardless): Interviews by Darrick Patrick. There may even be a slim chance you know me from the weird "home video style stunt comedy" footage that I used to shoot, which can mostly be found being occasionally uploaded by lil' bits and pieces over on my personal YouTube page. The even slimmer possibility of maybe knowing me from any of my vocal work is there too, which is mainly stationed on my MySpace music site. Or then again it's quite possible that I might very well be a brand new person to you. Feel free to hit me up...
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone really - I'm open to meeting the people I share a planet with.
And onto another seperate subject: Please DO NOT leave banners & photos inside of my comment box on this particular profile. They will be deleted. This is mainly so people won't have to wait a long time for the page to load up. I don't mind if you leave information or links about your band's upcoming show, a MMA event you're promoting, the new comic book you have coming out, or anything else for that matter. Just don't post any images with it. I appreciate your artwork - just not in my comments. Leave me some vocabulary instead of graphics: that's TEN TIMES BETTER. (If you'd like to leave me banners, flyers, photos, or video clips - you're welcome to do so on my music or film profiles)
