Hello all, welcome to my site.  I'm a native of the Bay Area in
Northern California.  I recently finished graduate school down at the
University of Southern California, moved back to the Bay, and I'm currently
working at IBM in San Jose.  I enjoy the lifestyle that the Bay Area has to
offer and I don't have any immediate plans to move away.  Nothing beats the
weather here!

	If any of you other ppl are from the Bay Area, then a big
SHOUT OUT goes out to all of you.  And if not, then come over 
here and visit dammit!

	Anyways, there's still alot more to know about me so if 
you want an in depth look at my background and psychological
profile click on the "Tha Man Behind tha Myth".	

        BTW, this site contains strong opinions and language that may not be
        suitable for the weak hearted or ppl who are easily offended.  If you
        are a conservative or close minded person, I suggest you click yourself
        right on out of here.

Work

	Yeah I'm working right now.  What you think I'd be 
sitting on my ass after I graduate???!!!  Naw, gotta make the
green to be able to afford living in Valley.  Currently I'm 
working at BIG BLUE aka IBM as a VLSI design engineer.  Don't ask
me what the hell I do because you probably won't understand it and 
I'll wind up looking like a nerd trying to explain it. =)

     This is how I play like when I'm
                                    on the court.
