TelevisionNahh, don't have time.
BooksI love to read and one of my all time favorite books is, "Owen Meany," "A Winters Tale" by Mark Helprin.  Lately I've really been getting into Walter Mosley's books, even the sci fi ones but I'll read just about anything from Jane Austen to Micky Spillane. 
HeroesMy big brother John Singer Sargent Leonardo Herbert Broderick (my art history prof) Irwin Greenberg and John Stewart (my art teachers who taught me how to paint.)

Happy New Year Kenney! My new year hasn't been so happy so far as I just got laid off from my job. But maybe it'll enable me to pursue some more worthwhile things.
I hope you're doing well - Portland misses you! :)

hey just wanted to drop a comment to let you know about a fresh new line of tees i have coming out.





this is basically a test run to see whether or not the designs will sell so supplies are very limited.

if you want to get your hands on the tees right when they drop, sign up for the mailing list at www. gnobrand. com

also, add GNO on Myspace

peace!
