Switched jobs in July 1999. Now I am working at UCSD's International Program marketing ESL and other courses to overseas students. I go all over the world.

Los Chicharrones Guapos: (updated 11/03) We have added a few members, Cory on keyboards and John on congas. We played the Belly Up series again last summer (2001), and like in 1999, won the Best of June but not the quarter. The world needs runners-up, too. At least out of the three gigs we got about $600 that went towards our CD, "Aloha Hot Disco."

The CD! Click on the label to visit the band site.

Songs: 1. Tijuana 2. Dot Com Dude 3. Hurricane 4. Tortilla 5. Cup o Joe 6. Aloha Hot Disco 7. Dawn Patrolin' 8. '70's TV 9. Hot Tub

The summer of 1999 was our heyday, winning "Best of June" and opening for The Untouchables, which as you know was rad. Recent gigs have been at the Surf and Saddle and the Fiesta del Sol in Solana Beach.

In summer 2003 we recorded two more songs. We're working on some more and will compile another album sometime this lifetime.

In the fall of 1998 I went up to make wine in Napa Valley with my old man. Check it out here. We bottled it July 2000 and I called it "Pito Vino" after my parrot. The connection? None, other than it made for a cool logo for the label. It is pretty tasty wine, if I do say so myself.

Check out my Bali trip.

Here are the basic topics you will find on my page:

My friends & family. If you know me, you might be in here. Rapture! Funny marketing in Taiwan. A raging party I had in April 1998, including pictures of our band, Ai Never Ai Never profile and members. Hear sound clips of us playing music. Here is the only serious page in this cluster of nonsense: my resume. Cory, the supermodel. A so-called music page. The aforementioned Bali travelogue. The aforementioned grape booze production. On-line art gallery of some of my dad's paintings. Be cultured and take a look

Living in Taiwan. My life overseas, including pub reviews, the music industry, daily eating, leisure time, and surfing.

I lived in Taiwan for a year. Click on the flag to learn what it's like.

These links are old and I'm too lazy to put new ones here:

The Onion. An oh so funny site.
MoAM. Surf music from the future.
People of the world ga mattette Shonen Knife.
A Tom Waits site. Can't go wrong with Tom Waits, unless you're trying to quit drinking.
Ren & Stimpy. I can't believe the best Ren & Stimpy page for graphics I have ever found was done by a foreigner!
MST3K You have to be really smart to appreciate this show. I don't know why but Tom Servo always reminds me of my friend Craig Mattei. I think it's his scimitar wit.
Suck.com. Social commentary, biting satire, and great cartoons. They went bust recently, so the material is getting old (like my site).
Maoist International Movement. This is a hoot. Reminds me of the health food store on campus at college.
Tom & Deb's page. My first friends to be as cool as me- they got their own home page.

Footer text. This, I reckon, is where stuff like "MST is a copyright," and "Email me at:" go. Also apologies for randomly linking other people's pages without their knowledge.

This page NOT That's Sir Bob Hope to you.
