Subject:via Facebook [it's spreading...like wildfire!]
Time:02:10 am
via my Facebook
You're supposed to do this and write 25 things. Everyone's done it, you know the drill.

01. Once I almost set a cornfield on fire

02. I've played piano my whole life

03. I used to really like model rockets and would attach various objects to them and see what I could get to fly over the house. I made movies of this.

04. I used to make really horrible horror movies [see my Facebook videos] and Rolling Stone did a whole article on them and it has a picture of me hanging out of my clubhouse.

05. I've run a free stuff site since 8th grade and got a lot of press for it and it funded my first year of private college before the internet bubble went bust.

06. I've visited probably a good 20+ US national parks and routinely go on 5-10+ hour drives to visit them. The nearest park I haven't visited is 10 hours away.

07. I go to Ireland every couple years and it's my favorite road trip place.

08. I developed my relationship with my wife via webcam. I somehow convinced her parents to let her move out to LA knowing this.

09. I want to move to Pacific Grove, CA on the top of Big Sur within 5 years

10. I collect pets and they are all famous

11. My favorite movie is Grizzly Man

12. I believe everything that's happened in my life has happened at the exact perfect time that it's supposed to, even if I don't understand it at the time. It always makes sense later on.

13. I live by LAX and like to sit out and identify all the planes to Tanya.

14. I've visited the cafe in Amelie...like two separate times.

15. I've lived by the ocean on both coasts

16. I have this great idea of when I have a kid to teach them that a cow is really a goat and to hit them on the side of the head when they're reciting the alphabet and say the letter 'e'.

17. I've sold probably a good 500 or so photos to various people around the world. It makes me happy to think of all the people who have my photos up on their walls.

18. I get the most satisfaction when wedding couples buy landscapes from me that I took during their wedding [it happens more often than not].

19. With a few exceptions I hate all my previous photo work and at the present I always think I'm the best. This continues year after year.

20. The idea of working for myself full time is really scary but exhilarating at the same time.

21. I always get angry when Tanya doesn't come with me on roadtrips because then I feel like then I have to go back and show her how cool it was.

22. I have a rather large collection of pictures of Riley the dog upside down on the couch from various points in his life

23. I stay up till 3-4am every night

24. I like buying plane tickets to far off places like a year in advance so I have something to look forward to for a really long time.

25. Greatest celebrity moment: Telling Vitali Klitschko how I loved playing Mike Tyson's Punch-out as a kid and him telling me how he beat Mike Tyson in real life. Oh and that he is the world heavyweight champ. riiiight.
