The person who invented beer and probably anyone who is a champion for the environment (w/o being an extremist about it)
I'm a simple, easy going and laid back guy. Doesn't take much to make me happy and keep me going. Some basic things about me:
I'm a prankster I'll eat just about anything - minus a few exceptionsI used to be able to touch my tongue to my nose, but jaw surgery fixed that I can't tie a tie I'm more resourceful than Macgyver I can fix anything I probably don't act my age (but I'm very responsible) I love to cook Staying fit and eating healthy are very important to me I have trouble planning more than a day in advance I can probably tolerate spicier food than you I'm not very flexible I can spout some corny jokes I'm a procrastinator I love good vodka martinis I think you're committing fraud if you claim to have an 80's night and not play Billy Idol, A-Ha or Kenny Logins (not that I approve of Kenny Logins) I prefer vanilla over chocolate, but I LOVE dark chocolate Linux is the OS of choice I love sipping ice cold ginger ale while flying I have a soft side for old school hardcore gansta rap I'm short for my height Capsaicin is the only drug I'm addicted toTulips are my favorite flowerI don't get sickToo much Caffeine makes me scatterbrained
Oh, and contrary to what you may have heard, I am not well qualified to represent the LBC. I don't know who's spreading these rumors...
Some of the more endearing traits that I enjoy in a friend include:
Open minds. Adventurers. Travelers. Environmentally conscious. Relatively clean. Spontanious. Fellow pranksters. Laid back. Good cooks.
Shawn and I tested out his new pop-up camper this past weekend (Feb 18). Had a blast even with the cold weather.
I'm finally getting around to getting Spring Break pics up! Johnny, Dustin, Craig, Matt and I ventured down to the keys for a little R&R last month. I think I speak for all of us when I say we had an awesome time - except when Matt tried to kill us about 6 times with the boat :) Enjoy!
So my friend Scott showed me Pandora.com and I'm hooked. Pandora uses the Music Genome Project to classify various genres of music. What's that mean to you? Probably nothing, but the cool thing is that you can type in an artist or song that you like and it will create a station comprised of similar songs/artists - and it actually works.
If you're interested in finding new music, check it out, you'll probably like it.
That's right boys and girls. Just when you thought I hadn't had enough dude filled vacations and road trips in my life, I'm ready for another one!
Starting July 31st through Aug 5th, I'll be up in the mountains of north Georgia (Blairsville). It'll be a fun dude filled time chock full of dirt bikes, XBox, Poker, Banjos, Beer and maybe some squealing like a pig! Pics to come!
***UPDATE***
So Mancation 2007 is unfortunately over, but what a blast it was. Beautiful country, tons of fun activities and surrounded by great friends. What more could you ask for really? We also met many genuinely friendly and interesting people that I hope to stay in touch with :)
