I'm a guy's guy, raised by parents who know that chivalry is not dead. I spend a lot of time in the gym. Two years ago I decided to change my life, I weighed 320 lbs. Today I'm 120 pounds lighter and enjoy helping others achieve their fitness goals.

Fixing things. Only because I'm exceptionally clever at finding new and interesting ways to break stuff, haha. I've been working with my hands since I was knee-high to a grass hopper. I love projects big and small, except assembling Ikea purchases. I abhor the cheap quality. My dad taught me to "Repair NOT Replace"

is that I look like a meathead. Haha! Probably because I am. Or that I'm loud. Or it could be my shoes. I often wear beat up shoes because their so damn comfortable. I mean, come on, I just finished breaking them in.

Books, I love to read. I prefer epics, sagas, and authors who write a series. Orson Scott Card - especially Ender's Game. Anne Rice. Dave Sherman and Daniel Cragg. Robert Jordan, may he rest in peace. Dan Brown. Let us not forget J.K. Rowling, I'm def a Harry Potter Geek. Don't judge me

Movies, typical guy productions and some not so typical alpha male movies. Faster disaster, gratuitous nudity, action, violence, zombie flicks. Old westerns, McClintock, Quigley Down Under. Just about anything animated by Disney or Pixar. And musicals. Yes, musicals. The decline of our society may be directly linked to the diminished production of quality musicals.

Music, yeah I dig tunes. Do I know the artists names or even song titles? Nope. Rock, country, 80's, 90's, old school gangster rap, oldies.

I'll always be a fat kid at heart, er stomach. Haha. I eat just about anything. At least once, anyway.

In no particular order. Water. A good book. My motorcycle. Peanut butter. West coast sunset. Football season.

I like to for a night ride. Riding to no place, just enjoying the moonlit roads. Which usually ends with me getting hungry and eating the tastiest grilled chicken or tri-tip sandwich at a local dive bar.

I like beans. Baked beans, chili beans, and especially soup beans. And cornbread. Just kidding, that's all common knowledge.
