About me: interesting facts people don't know about me: i tried out with several nba teams including the mavs, the bucks, the raptors, the celtics, and the mavs again--and i realized i was just too damn tiny to be in the nba--plus, i'm not even that good.also, i went out for the nfl and despite running a 22.4 40--i was passed on by everyone. i ate an omelette once and it was delicious. i like the color green as well as many other colors. i own a toaster--it's pretty sweet.
