About Me:: Life is messy. I have accepted and embraced the premise. And, I have adopted my new philosophy: “If Not NOW, when?”

I have learned a lot about life, love, and have experienced great success, failure, and shear moments of terror and triumph in the last 2 years. I am serious about spending life with those that I love and love me in return; the family and friends you surround yourself with, the love you give and take are what matters in the end. Karma is real, and a life worth living is only a life full of compassion, empathy, and love.

I abide by the philosophies of Mr. Wonka and Dr. Evil:
"All right guard, begin the unnecessarily slow-moving dipping mechanism." Don’t be overly elaborate.

“We are the music-makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams.” It’s inside of us all.

"It's Dr. Evil, I didn't spend six years in Evil Medical School to be called 'mister,' thank you very much." Be proud of your accomplishments.

“So shines a good deed in a weary world.” Be kind, for everyone is fighting hard battles.

"Are they ill tempered?" Make the best of things.

"Scott, that hurts daddy when you say that." Treat your parents with love and respect.
“A thing of beauty is a joy forever.”

"Finally, we come to my number two man. His name? Number Two." Keep things simple.

“Oh, you should never, never doubt what nobody is sure about.” No one has all the answers.

"By ‘caliber,’ of course, I refer to both the size of their gun barrels and the high quality of their characters. Two meanings...caliber...it's a homonym... Forget it." Sense of humor is critical to survival.

"There's nothing as pathetic as an aging hipster." Age gracefully, but never give up.

“A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men.” Age is a state of mind.

"How about, no, Scott? Okay?" Know when to say no.

"Well it's true! You're semi-evil. You're quasi-evil. You're the margarine of evil. You're the Diet Coke of evil. Just one calorie, not evil enough." Honesty is the best policy.

"As the French say, that certain ‘I don't know what’." Learn a foreign language.

"Why make a trillion when we could make... billions?" Stay in school.

"Don't mess with me. I'm one crazy mo-fo. I had to pop a cop cause he wasn't giving me my props in Oaktown. No? I've heard that somewhere." Don’t try to be something you’re not.

"Mini-me, we do not gnaw on the kitty." Treat animals well.

"The power of Christ compels you! The power of Christ compels you!" Religion has its place and purpose.

“Where is fancy bred? In the heart, or in the head?”

Are there skeletons in my closet? Sure. No more scary than yours. Is Life Messy? Yep. Wanna get dirty?!?

Relationship Status:: Single

Favorite Music:: Count the Stars, Greenday, Good Charlotte, Lincoln Park, Finch, Senses Fail, Manson, Hawthorne Heights, NIN, Korn, Weezer, Newfound Glory, Rob/White Zombie, NoFX, Yellowcard, Matchbook Romance, Jimmy Eat World, Alkaline Trio, Sarah Brightman, Saliva, Staind, Nickleback, Taking Back Sunday, Black Flag, AC/DC, Metallica
