I had started the day in a fun way…. going to Ground Industries. I was thrilled to see those guys. They are so cool. I gave them back their mountain board. I was offered it to take around the country, but I think I rather not sustain THAT many injuries, so […]

Amanda, Bob, Hailey-Bop, and me with my guitar… oh yeah… and fire… and a fly that landed on my screen.
I left Atlanta finally. I was really getting sick of getting invited to the same clubs / bar every single week. I just don’t get it. Why go to the same place every week, with the same people, and not even interact with other people who go to the place. I […]
As always, Skizzy rocks! I had an awesome going away party! I hadn’t checked my MySpace that much as of late, so I missed the invite he sent out (Saved till the end of this post, since it’s kind of long). Thankfully, I was in constant contact with Skizzy, and had promised to […]
Everyone keeps telling me “You say ‘amazing adventures, amazing photography… but where’s the photos at?” - So.. I’m trying to get to them. Here’s a few.
The Evil Keg movie premiere post
Hillbilly Family Reunion post
I got impressed by the work of internationally renowned artist, Tsubasa, so I interviewed him. (Y’all bitch I don’t have enough pics on my blog- so here’s a pic of “Bill” (though Tsubasa sounds more exotic) that I took at the end of the interview). You should know, he not only is extremely […]
I’ve stayed in the South East too long. Not that I don’t like it- heck, I bought a place here, didn’t I? It’s just that I once again feel as if I’m not making enough progress… I’m with the same crowd again, doing many of the same things…. Time to move on.
I have […]
Last night, I drove an hour to that mansion, to shoot their pool at night, for LuxuryPools.com. I drve an hour, only to find out that my camera is broken. I was not thrilled, as that camera costs a pretty penny, and is a very big part of my trip / life.
So…. my 1st guest has been on the phone with me, often at random hours. She’s very sweet, and the really flattering thing, is that she knew all about me. She’s called me a few times with her friends on the line, or right there near her… she’s read my blog, […]
Bayer sold AIDS infected drugs overseas… gotta love capitalism
Published by June 20th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 0 CommentsOh man… it’s currently 4:20am. I woke up about an hour and a half ago… dazed…. I had spent from Friday until this morning on this project that someone threw my way. I had skipped sleep on Sunday night and Monday night. Seems “the new bedtime” is 6pm. Old people can […]
I was excited… I’d get to see Lizzy. I’d get to ride horses… I’d get to see the process of how handicapped children learn to ride horses. When I told people that Lizzy teaches handicapped kids to ride horses, people have replied “Do they have ramps?” or (my response) do you tie […]
Oops! I forgot to lock my front door! In fact… I didn’t even close it all the way. I was expecting Skiz & company to show up after they got done at Tongue & Groove. So, I decided to take a nap around 1am — set my alarm for 3am, texted […]
So, I got the keys that I lost in Nick’s car. I met up with Nick, and it was cool, because I found out I’m very close to a giant mall that has all the stores I’d want — makes me even happier about my new home. He gave me my keys, and […]
I got attacked by zombies at an evil keg party! (with pics-n-slideshow)
Published by June 15th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 2 CommentsMy day started with exercise… I was drenched in sweat after an hour of elipticals. The elipticals here are wonderful. I then sat in the jacuzzi and listened to music while enjoying the sun. I didn’t even need my keys, as the jacuzzi is so close, I can see my front door […]
Oh yeah… I said I figured out who I am… here’s a quick list.
Published by June 14th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 0 CommentsWell.. I said I discovered that I really like open mic nights, simple not overly-produced displays of talent…. drawing, singing, dancing, etc… Here’s a quick list of things I knew about me, but had confirmed, and other things I discovered… on this trip.
The day started out on my balcony… birds were chirping, cool air had blanketed itself around me as I crawled out from my sleeping-bag bed. It would’ve been so easy to sleep forever in those conditions. Sooooo comfy! It’s like camping out on a field of burbur :p. I woke up […]
Well… I’m writing this day in here 2 days after it happened, so I’ll keep it brief. Remember how Monday, before my home closing I went and took a quick stroll in “my back yard” ? Well… this time I went jogging there…
My 1st visitor! What a night! — ARGH!!!!!!!!!! 2 Hour long blog entry deleted!
Published by June 12th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 2 CommentsI have to start this one off by reminding everyone (including myself) that every single blog entry on CouchSurfingOri.com is absolutely true (give or take for the videos on certain topics, i.e. the government blew up the WTC… those are for you to decide, and not created by me)…heck, they are even censored down a […]
This place is so sweet! I kind of wish I had something in the fridge, and some furniture… but it’s official, it’s mine! I closed on it. Brought a sleeping bag in, some laundry, since I negotiated the washer / dryer. Lit up some Nag Champa to get rid of that […]
I’m blogging from the Lawyer’s office. I got in about 20 minutes early, for my realty closing. My 1st ever home, how exciting. I just did my walk through, and the place looks awesome. I even walked through the “back yard”
Look… I know it’s dangerous to spread truth. But if you believe someone is doing wrong, then it’s your responsibility to inform those being hurt (the world, in this case). So… If Bush demolished the WTC, does that mean that he and Condie and friends get arrested, and face charges for crimes against […]
Make sure to rag on my friend! Tell others to, also!
Published by June 11th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 0 CommentsHi, I’m Couch Surfing Ori, and I have a friend who is an awesome designer/illustrator. He even helped me make the Couch Surfing Ori logo. My buddy, Johnny Winslow, had bitched about his job a bit in the past… he was going to part ways. I told him that he needs an […]
A fine day, and a good way to piss me off..
Published by June 11th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 0 CommentsLast night I was hanging out with Skiz’s dad and the neighbors. One of them invited me to crash on her couch, and even asked if I shoot boobs and nudity on my site… or, if I’d like to shoot hers. This was strange’ish since her ex husband was right there next to […]
I sort of feel like Shaun White in this commercial:
Wednesday I’m in South Carolina drinking with the fellows at Ground Industries, then making Stuffed Creatures at night with world famous creature maker John Murphy of StupidCreatures.com - Then Thursday I’m getting Mountain Boarding lessons by one of the best riders in the […]
This video was pretty disturbing. I was amused that it shows that every religion plagiarized every other religion… and that they’re all based on Astonomy, not some fairytale-like performance by a superpowerful creator. But it’s not just about religion.. it’s great conspiracy theory about 9/11 being an inside job, and how international bankers […]
www.tv-links.co.uk is an amazing site…. it is legal, in that it doesn’t host any of these shows/movies… but rather it links to various sites on the internet that do have the content. I’ve watched Spiderman 3 on there, and now the entire Season 3 of The 4400. Quite amazing!
Wednesday night, after meeting a couch surfer, I hung out with John Murphy (Couch 39) who is the creator of www.stupidcreatures.com - We went to his studio, and I helped him stitch up some of his creatures for his gallery showing this weekend. Me sewing! I’m going to help him make a […]
The drive from Greenville, SC to Ashville, NC was about an hour… probably my shortest drive so far. Very scenic! I get here, John still has an hour or 2 of work, so I go to this cool coffee/book shop. Within about 5 minutes, I get a coffee, internet, and conversation. […]
Do you have your own Butt Pads (not to be confused with plugs)? I do!
Published by June 6th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 0 CommentsToday I’m leaving Ground Industries (Greenville, SC) and going to Ashville NC to hang with John Murphy of StupidCreatures.com and then get my Mountain Board training done by Baron! I’ll be back in town for the Johnny Kapahala (the 1st mountain boarding movie out there– featuring Ground Industries boards, of course) movie premiere on […]
Shot this at the Hillbilly Reunion…. No hair/makeup, no chance to tell the model what to wear/bring… heck… didn’t know who my model was until she arrived (thanks Skizzy), and I didn’t have time to bring my studio lights… so… just camera / flash / model / Ground Industries Boards… Lizzy is smokin!
Need 3d or 2D? Please help my friend! So much talent!
Published by June 4th, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 0 CommentsMy buddy, Riplee, is at the end of his rope. I’ve known him since 1997, and I’ve always told everyone “That guy has more 3d talent in his little pinky than I have in my whole body!” (and people say I’m decent at 3d). I’ve hired him for […]
Oh my god, so much happens in such little time! I’ve been busting ass to get this project done for the Ground Industries guys.. it’s a very difficult one as far as 3D projects go. I did not sleep at all on Thursday night, but kept on working. […]
TODAY IS MY 6 MONTHS ANNIVERSARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! slideshow included
Published by June 1st, 2007 Uncategorizedin . 2 Comments6 Months ago today, I spent half a day trying to complete squeezing everything in my car, and leave my parents’ house (after one month before, I had gotten rid of my gorgeous condo on the beach….) to go Couch Surfing! I’ve been called a lot of things on my adventure, but the one I […]
