Just one of many (many) hats I wear. But enough about that...

I will always remember the words of my friend and mentor Joe, "the camera doesn't make the photo". You were right Joe. I've had expensive cameras and cheap cameras...but for now...I'll just stick with the cheap ones. I listened, and I continue to learn, everyday. Many thanks also to Anni. I often think about what you'd say, about being true to yourself and to your art (that's why I'll always see myself as a painter first). Most importantly, thank you to my wife Sandy. My hopes and dreams of one day having a beautiful wife have finally been realized. Not in front, not behind, but side by side.

To those of you who guided, believed, and influenced me in a positive way, you mean the world to me, and I cannot thank you enough.

May I also extend my sincere gratitude to the ones who never believed in me, and those who totally screwed me over. They too improved my life.... in ways they'll never know.
