General
photography, surfing, wake boarding, riding around on wave runners, snow boarding, mountain biking, or rock climbing.
Music
I have a very eclectic mix to suit whatever mood I am in... It ranges from Rock, Electronic/Trip Hop, Reggae, Punk, Ska, Blues, Rap, Classical. Right now I'm rediscovering a lot of my favorites from the past like; 311, Rancid, Rage Against the Machine, G. Love & Special Sauce, early Incubus, and Bob Marley.
Movies
if it has a good story and is filmed well, or makes me laugh, chances are I'll like it. A few favorites are; Sin City, Hero, Domino, The Matrix Trilogy, Van Wilder, Kill Bill, Black Hawk Down, Hackers, Stargate, Tomb Raider, Baraka, Step into Liquid, Dogma, etc...
Television
I don't really pay much attention to television but, I almost always have CNN on for background noise while I'm working. When I actually watch, I like the No Reservations, Dexter, Scrubs, My Name is Earl, Family Guy, The Simpsons, and 30 Days.
Books
Mostly just books with pretty pictures, but words are ok every now and then...

I am one of those fortunate people that get to do what they love for a living. I get paid to make photos, and that makes me happy. While most of the world is sitting in an office all day, I get to drive around and experience things first hand, tell the stories of the people that I meet and places that I see. Other than that I'm pretty laid back, and find myself going on random spontaneous adventures when ever possible, in order to keep life interesting.
Buy My Photos (don't steal them). All of the cool kids are doing it...
Who I'd like to meet: Other people who make photos, edit photos, buy photos, people who want to hire me to make photos, polite/professional airline employees, and anyone with an interesting story.
Yes I know...I'm old...and all of my "old" friends are on MySpace...and yes, that hairstyle is out-dated now...but it was the shit then and I wore it well..along with that totally cool jean jacket...LOL.
You can give me shit all you want...you should know by now that I'll just give it right back to you!
TGIF (as if I needed to date myself any further) Have a great weekend.
Feb 28, 2008 2:38 PM Yes I will be your friend, and no its not bad form to have Auntie Kim as a friend on MySpace (Auntie Rockie on the other hand, well......), but MySpace is about as five minutes ago as the hair style in the your profile pic. HAHAHA... All the cool kids are on Facebook now. Don't you just love having a nephew that is old enough to give you shit, and yet old enough so you can't get him in trouble for it?
Hey... Awesome job on the slideshow-- it really brought back good old memories. Hey don't forget the time you sang, gosh what' that song's name with I like chinese chicken... it was a fast song and you rocked! Thanks dude!
Hey Flashnick! Love the way you are so quick to respond to emails! Way to be a good friend! Just kidding! I'm sure you are busy, but I do want to catch up... Talk to you soon!
So, it looks like we'll be down your way twice his week! We're playing at the University of S. Carolina on Tuesday (the 26th) and Winthrop University on Friday (29th) and thought it'd be great if we could see you while we're out there. Really hope you can come!
