| General | Getting lost in life...lost in a moment. The beauty that's suspended within the seconds of a thought...an emotion... Photography, Art of every media...especially digital and painting, Music (ALL), Writing, Films (Indie/Horror/Sci-Fi), Technology/Computers, Nature, Dance... Tormenting those dear to me by dancing/singing in public... Wandering pet stores just before close (walking by each animal slowly exclaiming "Ohh, so cute!"), Understanding what's going on in the world. Hating politics...but refusing to be blind to the control they have on our lives, Religion... Pointless Road Trips, Road Trips with Purpose, Watching my daughter experience things for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd time... Singing, Playing Drums, Learning new things (I yearn to learn how to play the violin that's been sitting quietly on my shelf), Going against the grain, Making my family cringe (it's not hard), Hanging out with the boys (but getting away with what they can't), DJing, Staying up way too late, Being a little bit paranoid but very mellow, Debating with someone on subjects that are important to me (if they can hold their ground and don't let their panties get in a twist), Dreams, Nightmares (the insight they hold), Guitars, Saturday, Artists...Musicians...Writers...
I run a recording studio & independent record label jointly with my dearest friends & promote/DJ/manage Radio 216's Musique Non Suck... etc., etc., etc..............

Something fantastic about the worlds they spin...something beautiful... (Note: My daughter is 8 now... The books have gotten deeper of course...and instead of my reading to her, she will read to me... What a brilliant next chapter.) | | Heroes | My mum... My daughter. Anyone that's sad, but smiling at life. Musicians & Artists that are true to their gift. Those who can laugh in most situations... Children... Our planet - for tolerating us... Cities that place blocks on further expansion/construction in order to preserve what is left. People that don't take themselves too seriously. The human heart/spirit.......................
