About me

Gender Male
Industry Architecture
Occupation Architect
Location New Orleans, Louisiana
Introduction Originally from Natchez, Mississippi, I grew up eating well. I had to wear the navy blue husky jeans until I was about 12. So I learned how to prepare and enjoy good food. The southwest area of Mississippi gets a lot of influence from the New Orleans area. Gumbo and Cochon d'Lait are Christmas eve traditions with my family. Otherwise, I'm married, but have no plans for kids anytime soon. My wife shares no interest in my cooking experiments other than not hurting myself, but she is a good impartial judge of the outcomes.
Interests Obviously cooking, making things, architecture, carpentry
Favorite Movies Star Wars Episodes 3-6 and Han shot first, Snatch, Scarface, Goldfinger, Goodfellas, Lawrence of Arabia, Vanishing Point(the original), Dazed & Confused, Fear and Loathing in LV.
Favorite Music Miles Davis, Coltrane, Hancock, Beastie Boys, Cash, Jerry Jeff Walker, My Morning Jacket, Ben Harper, Black Crowes, Allmans, Stravinksy, Beethoven, Daft Punk, Crystal Method, Chemical Bros., Dylan, Doors
Favorite Books architecture books, a couple of Tom Robbins novels, "The Zanzibar Chest" by Aidan Hartley

What's the best time you've ever had licking stamps?

When I was licking 500 of them to go on wedding invites, b/c I knew at the end of it all, I had to lick 500 more for thank you notes.
