I'm a photographer/actor/graphic-designer/Kickball-player/scuba-diver/...basically...

Some of which I make a living at doing, but I'll let you guess which ones.

I'll also add, that the 90% work I do is Charity and/or Non-profit related...So I don't necessarily make bank but I get to feel good at the end of the day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm actually terrible at reading books,
my mind wonders too much... So usually I end up reading a lot of Little Compendiums, Like; "Lies my teacher told me", "The Lives of a cell", "An Underground Education", "Whatever You Think, Think the Opposite" "The Holographic Universe", "A Brief History of Time", "Your Action World" (I don't know if that counts as a book though) "RankinWorks" (probably not either)
....however I did really enjoy everything I've read of Orson Scott Card and Douglas Adams.

Best T.V. Show ever; "Arrested Development"
Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Frisky Dingo, Archer, TNG, Firefly, BSG, 30-Rock, Community, Bullshit, Red Dwarf, Futurama,

But I do enjoy a good movie....making a list is nearly impossible, I own literally hundreds. I can probably do a top 10...but It's hard to pick
#1. Joe Vs. The Volcano,
#2. The Big Leboski (of course)...and most Coen Bro's films,
#3. Fear and Loathing in Los Vegas ...and Most Terry Gilliam films (Including all Monty Python),
#4. Brazil (see above)
#5 I'm gonna HAVE to put "Goonies" on here.
#6 "Swingers"
#7 "Human Traffic"
#8 "Kicking And Screaming" (NOT the one with will Farrell)
#9 BLUE PLANET / PLANET EARTH / LIFE (I'm not sure if those count as movies or TV shows, but anything BBC/Discovery Channel Documentary related)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't like following rules and I can't stop at one:

Performed in an opera in Austria
Scaled Tikal on crutches.
CS MEETUP: La Tomatina - spain. TOMATO FIGHT!
COUCH BURNERS CAMP: Burning man
Scuba dove with a pod of dolphins.
Drove a bubble sub.

Teach, Learn, Share

Heres to the crazy ones.
The misfits.
The rebels.
The troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes.

The ones who see things differently.
They're not fond of rules.
And they have no respect for the status quo.

You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them,
disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can't do is ignore them.
Because they change things.

They invent. They imagine. They heal.
They explore. They create. They inspire.
They push the human race forward.

Maybe they have to be crazy.

How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art?
Or sit in silence and hear a song that's never been written?
Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels?

Because the people who are crazy enough to think
they can change the world, are the ones who do.
