Da Krewe

Here you will find members of "Da Krewe." These are just friends, family, people who hang around that are part of my circle of friends. For those that are not New Orleans savvy, Krewe is obviously "Crew" but it is commonly used in Mardi Gras parades as in, "Krewe of Endymion," which is my favorite Mardi Gras parade by the way. These are grouped in no particular order except my relation to them.

Da ~~Other~~ Better Half

Amy, Doofus, or "Nikki" - This is Amy, my girlfriend. We've been together since February of 2002. The ride hasn't been too rough over the last couple years, but she's still putting up with me for one reason or another. "Nikki" is derived from her middle name, Nicole, but is also her valley girl alternate personality that slips out from time to time. "Like, Oh My God!" If she's a good sport she won't leave me because of this web site entry. :-p In the third picture of her over there she's behind the wheel of my roommate's 320hp Twin Turbo Supra...other drivers beware!

Da Local Krewe

Jeff, Ranger Jeff, JEFFERY!, or - I've known Jeff since the freshman year of high school. We we forced to endure an English class taught by an old lady with the early onset of Emphysema. She'd often be caught between classes smoking in the parking lot. Anyway, Jeff and I have been best of friends for quite some time now, mostly in part to our similar interests: Cars, electronics, speakers & sound systems, etc... Life has drug us through a lot together and for quite some time now we've mutally accepted each other as family. (note to Jeff: Hey Bro, hope putting up the picture of you sticking your tounge out aggervates you to no end!)

Greg, "The Foreman Guy", or Mitch - Prince and I have been friends since the 3rd grade. Man that is a long time to know someone! I've know him longer than any of my other friends, and despite him conning me into being in a Tom Sawyer play for a 4th grade talent show, we're still the best of friends. He's on his way to becoming a full fledged Architect, so maybe I can get a house designed cheap one day! Mitch is Greg's alternate party going personality whom is a lot of fun to be around. I'll let you guess which photos listed are of Greg and which are of Mitch. Anyways, you'll often find Greg and I in front of a TV watching a movie or sporting event passing some cold Bud Light's around. Mitch throws a hell of a party too! Happy New Years! hahaha...

John or "Mustang John" - I met John in the 7th grade shortly after transferring middle schools. Common interests of cars, firearms, and annoying the teaching staff made our friendship work instantly. John ~~drives~~ pilots an extremely bad assed 1966 Mustang that is as fast as it looks. Sharing the same passion for firearms, John and I used too spend a lot of time at the local firing ranges shooting anything from .22 rifles to AR-15 .223 models.

Phil or "Civic Phil" - Phil and I met at that god awful place you commonly refer to as RadioShack. I was fresh out of high school and got a job there to get some cash flowing. The first day I met Phil he threw up violently in the Shoney's bathroom... and we werent even customers there! I bet they were pissed. Phil's a soccer nut to the point where it's probably unhealthy, but he's apparently good at it. He actually resides with his wife and kid in Baton Rouge now where he terrorizes middle school students by teaching them math. Good luck kids!

Tim, Tim-MAY, Tim-O - Tim and I met playing this online game on a local BBS (and if you know what those are, pat yourself on the back.) called "Tele-Arena." The BBS was called "The Point BBS." It was a rather large BBS for being the old dial-up days and I met tons of friends from it. Tim is the only one that's still hanging around on a regular basis. He finally graduated college and is following in his father's footsteps of becoming a lawyer. That's a good thing too...because all the crap Tim and I get into, we're going to need a good lawyer. We basically just roam the streets bothering retail store clerks, resteraunt staff, and occasionaly the local authorities.
