.

Dave The Chimp, Mysterious Al and all
the Finders Keepers Crew. Rick Rubin (Slayer and Run DMC!). Flying Fortress,
whose new toys are off the hook! All the people who come to the UK fotolog hook
ups and are so generous with their advice and goodies! Adept for sheer coverage.
Dave for making me smile every time I see his work. Finally, Manowar who despite
the changing fads and fashions in music have stayed to true to their desire to
be THE most metal band in the world. DTFM!

I’d love to be able to skateboard and
draw properly.
