This is a picture of me with my cat macatam. macadam means black-top in england; my mom is a linguist (meaning she studies language, moron), so she gave all the People and pets in the house weird names.*
one of the people i worked with told me that dean koontz used "macatam" a lot. my only question was "why the fuck were you reading dean koontz novels?"
* My name is "aram padraic", my brother's name is "zachary beowulf" and my sister is "Olivia jane" (i don't know how she was able to pull off such a regular name)
this is a picture of me from my rafting trip on the clark fork in montana. i am not very "outdoorsy" and my idea of outdoors is wearing a hat with a canadian Goose on it and full denim. not the best idea for rafting down a river. The lack of water-proofing and the plethora of hamm's all added up to a hefty case of hypothermia at the end of the trip.
the trip was ill-prepared. our guide (and amigo), tipton, mixed up the keys to the cars and we ended up with the wrong set at the end of our trip. he ended up hitchhiking back up to our launching point to grab the right set of keys. I tried drying my boxers in the fire and ended up burning them.
if it weren't for the bulldozer that we found sitting next to the raft (with the keys convienently tucked away in the visor), I would have killed tipton.
this is my best friend mike stuntz. I never liked this photo. i find it to be fake and boring. unfortunately, I don't have any other pictures of mike. we doctored this photo because at the time, he was an alcoholic and we wanted to make fun of him.
(what did you expect? we wanted to help him out with an intervention...we were as drunk as he was. and it was college, so we could get away with shit like that)
I'm a nice guy. however this image should serve as a warning: I may be nice, but i'm an unstable leprechaun. A leprechaun that wears a jean jacket and will tear you apart with a machete (okay...I went a little too far there...i told you I was unstable).
with this close up of the jean jacket, you can really begin to tell that this is no ordinary jean jacket...it's a magical jean jacket. it kept my upper body dry for the entire rafting trip (and the fur kept me warm).
