Reading, Chillin with Friends, I LOVE to swim. Roller blading and frisbee golf are great but I suck at both of them......Anything that takes me out-of-doors is wonderful.. I don't get outside near as often as I would like to but I treasure every moment as much as possible..In my increasingly busy life, I have found that a bit of Mother Nature is all I need to calm down and attain a new perspective on things..
Music
When it comes to musical tastes I am pretty one sided. While I like most anything I am passionate about Jack Johnson, really anything that is cool, groovy, and mellow I love, Dave Matthews Band and The String Cheese Incident along with Rusted Root, the Grateful Dead and just recently I was turned on to Widespread Panic. Another Amazing guy is Damien Rice and if you haven''t heard him yet then go and check him out! Basically my musical tastes would best be described as hippie and I'm totally cool with that, its more of a lifestyle than a musical genre though....I now work at a radio station so as you can imagine, my love for music is all reaching... I'm leaving what I orginally wrote because it is still true but I have a deep appreciation for any music that is real, comes from the heart, tells a story, and has a killer beat
Movies
Wow, this is a difficult one to talk about, I love so many movies.. my favorite of all time would hands down be The Goonies, i am a huge fan of I Am Sam, and Big Fish.. Life As A House.....Notes On A Scandal was phenomenal... I recommend it to everyone
Television
I really don't watch a lot of TV anymore but I love to watch CNN in the morning with a bowl of cereal and a hot cup of coffee ~ I am also really getting into the LOGO channel, they really showcase a lot of inspiring stories
Books
My favorite author is Ayn Rand, so books such as The Fountainhead and Altas Shrugged would fall into this category.. I love The Kite Runner and my new favorite author is Jonathan Safran Foer... please read Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close also Everything Is Illuminated..When you're done with those, come and find me and I'll give ya some more...
Heroes
That's pretty simple... anyone who has beaten the odds... especially my mother.....
About me: Well I have been through my share of ups and downs and anyone who has shared this past year with me knows quite extensively all about them. I am not trying to say that there aren't other people that face what I face but I feel like so many people give up when it gets to difficult...I try to face everyday as a new moment, a new chance to improve myself and I believe that as a whole, I have done so. One of my most important objectives in this new chapter in my life is to treat everyday as special and to live with integrity....

Who I'd like to meet: I would love to meet more great people and ultimately that someone special. I have been so blessed throughout my life. I have meet so many wonderful people, so many great friends I can go YEARS without seeing and pick up right where we left off, as if not a day had passed since we were last together. I have met my share of people that are fakes, lairs, & cheats and I don't need any more of those people in my life. Don't get me wrong, I place a value on everyone I come in contact with. It is they that influence my life in ways thats are incomprehensible. I owe you a debt of gratitude.

Don't miss the man, the myth, the legend, Primus bass god Les Claypool when he comes to town July 2nd for a 4th of July weekend bash @ the always fun Anchor Inn!! After bringing us such classics as "My Name Is Mud", "Jerry Was A Racecar Driver", "Wynona's Big Brown Beaver", and "One Better" you can't miss the chance to see arguably the best bass player in the world's latest psychedelic mushroom infused creations from "Of Fungi and Foe" Tickets only $23 in advance at www.etix.com for the concert event of the summer!!
Don't miss Vince Herman of Leftover Salmon in his electric folk, alt-country, a dash of bluegrass and good ol' rock and roll side project that is Great American Taxi at Lincoln's newest venue the Bourbon Theatre this Wednesday June 24th!!. Tickets only $10 in advance!!
Great American Taxi's sound has been compared to a variety of roots oriented bands including New Riders of the Purple Sage, a "Grateful Dead for the new millennium," Wilco, Uncle Tupelo, The Byrds and more. People will hear threads of the Leftover Salmon fabric propelled by an inspired Herman being supported by a cast of talented minstrels ready to follow Herman to the land of 'Festival!" Herman's in-your- face, in-the-moment improvisation helps bring the party to Taxi's well-crafted songs. People from all backgrounds will be able to latch onto something in the band's sound. Great American Taxi is truly a melting pot of musical tastes and styles all rolled into their "Americana without borders." The band has appeared at several premier music festivals including High Sierra Music Fest, Wakarusa, Summer Camp, 10,000 Lakes Festival, Dunegrass, and Nightgrass slots at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival.
