Surfing, Playing Duck Hunt (Isn't that the reason I have a big-screen?), Writing my novel... and screenplay, Bitching about society, Dark Import beer, Cheap Domestic beer, Skateboarding (Which really entails a lot of pain and scrapes and the occasional kickass trick), Creating music, Making Random Music videos, Cooking for no one in particular, and my new personal favorite... Trying to find the WORST movie on TV then seeing how many shots it takes to make it entertaining!
Music
Movies
Surf flicks, movies with awesome soundtracks even if the movie itself sucks, movies that suck unless you put them on mute and play really awesome music in the background (i.e. Daredevil and Electra), movies that leave you wondering what the hell just happened at the end, movies that have you convinced that you're life is going to be changed by it and you come to realize that all it did is reflect an alternatve view of your own ideology, movies that push my own ideology and in fact threaten them making me question myself and provoke hours upon hours of self-philosophical thought.
..
Television
Entourage (I seriously LOVE this show!), So You Think You Can Dance, Grey's Anatomy, Deadwood, Weeds, Scrubs, Sportcenter, American Dad, Boondocks, Family Guy, Simpsons (Of course!), Iron Chef, Robot Chicken, and Press Your Luck (No Whammies, No Whammies, No Whammies... STOP!).
Books
Just finished "Everything Changes" by Johnathan Tropper, a great read in general, but guys would really enjoy it. It actually has inspired me to write a "possible" book, might just turn out to be a really, really long short story (OK, that's a little redundant). Currently reading Tropper's other title, "Book of Joe," but I'm more than halfway done, so start suggesting other books you might think I'd enjoy. On a side note... I've since finished "Book of Joe"... twice. And I'm currently adapting it into a screenplay. Yeah, I know I'm nuts. Chuck Palahniuk's stuff is great, but not for everybody. Everyone should read Maya Angelou at least once in their life. And even though he shouldn't be taken word-for-word literal, Henry David Thoreau has a fantastic outlook on life.
Heroes
He-Man, Dr. Seuss, and Gandhi (since we know that Gandhi could kick anyone's ass if he wanted to)

Extravert,

Hypersensitive (Huh?),
Abstract,
Chaos-Ambivalent,

Fearless.
Every day people around the world wake up and think to themselves, "How can I be more like Sean today?" (Granted... other more obvious Sean's like Penn, Connery, or even Bean are probably pertinent than me) I wake up and think to myself, "How can I be more like Mr. T?" There are certain traits that I realize are extremely outside the realms of "likely" without resorting to major cosmetic surgery. But a guy can dream can't he?
I was informed in a recent re-connection with a high school acquaintance that I'm well behind schedule on the wife/kids path of life. I told them that they sounded like my grandmother and that they'd best get used to waiting.
- I pride myself on being atypical on everything from my personality to my priorities in life. (Maybe I'm some sort of neo-hippie or beatnik?)
- My sense of humor tends to polarize at either razor-sharp wit or unfathomable stupidity.
- If I give you a funny nickname that means I actually like you.
- I will give my opinion, whether it's requested or not.
- I hate "processed people". It's a product of growing up in the now trendy part of Orange County.
- Natural beauty amazes me, and yet I'm still an enormous critic. (But hey, we all have to have faults, right?)
- I generally tend to be remembered as both everyone's "Most Intelligent conversation" and everyone's "Most Inane". (And damn proud of it too!)
Who I'd like to meet: People that actually make sense... or at least mean what they say. I'm not a free-spouting source for attention, but then maybe that's why I'm in this relative drought. Maybe if I just sold out and focused only other people and not myself I'd finally get what I want. Wait! I tried that and ended up miserable. Seriously... there's so many pointless parts of life in society these days that I just want nothing to do with anymore.
Hey Sean! Thanks for the belated wishes. It's not biggie tho. I hardly ever log in either. I went to Denver for my birthday. Got hurt snowboarding then got shitty. It was fun. I really miss you guys. I'm trying to plan a trip with my girls soon so maybe we can come over there to party. =D
if you're in los angeles tonight (wednesday 10/1) i will be playing at the standard hotel downtown around 10- and i would love to see you there! (info is on my space)
