			Interview What is it that you like about Hooters? I actually am not much of a fan. To many stuck up cunts who only like you for tips!! Unless you are Drew York and Jeremiah Jones. They manage to work those girls like it aint no thang. However there is one decent hooters chick who just happens to live in Davenport. So I guess that is what I like about hooters. Oh...and there quesadillas are pretty sweet as well. What is the last new trick you pulled in a contest? Well the last new trick I had planned to do in a contest was a no handed front flip. But injuries as well as low ceilings prevented that from happening. I did pull a nose wheelie up a grind ledge to barspin off though that I was pretty amped about. How do you make the big bucks? Big bucks? Where? When? Im still waiting on that. I dont even have health insurance. Working on that though. I just do lots of shows for little kids and they seem to enjoy it. The world keeps on spinning. How many minutes do you use a month on your cell plan? You know...I cant say I really use that many. I havent gone over in like a year or something. My plan is for 700 mins. But I have unlimited sprint to sprint calling and nighttimes start at 7. I do ok. Do you prefer voice communication or text? Rick knows that I prefer text and here is why.... if you text message someone the conversation can start and stop whenever you want it to. If you are talking to some slag on the phone you have to deal with not only her whiney voice but also you cant hold a conversation with anyone else aroudn you. So if you text you can just send messages when you feel like it and then talk to others. Ask John Rodgers, he will tell you. What is your favorite Winter activity? Umm....waiting for it to get warm? I havent had to deal with a harsh northern winter for like four years now and I love it. However, when I did live back in the north I used to go snowmobling with my dad all the time. I was pretty heavy into it, as was he. It got me all the redneck chicks at least. What is the next trick you want to learn and why? There really isnt any certain trick I am trying to learn. Im more just into doing moderate tricks and putting them all into a flowing run. Riding the unit is helping lots with that. Just finding lines and then mixing in 360's, whips, and barspins into and out of stuff is really want Im interested in. However I do huck myself from time to time into the foam. We will see what happens with that though. Do you work out? I had never worked out a day in my whole life up until like three weeks ago. Quinn Semling and I just recently became jocks and bought a membership at a local gym down the street from our house. Im not trying to be a meathead...just trying to stay in shape. The slags that hang out there arent so bad either though. Can you read? If yes, what is the last book you read? I have been known to read from time to time. I hadnt read anything since like 11th grade in high school up until recently I have been on a bit of a reading kick. I started out a couple months ago with Angels and Demons and then the follow up book, The DaVinci Code. They are real good books and give a lot of insight on how crazy and corrupt religion is/was both now and back in the day. I recommend both books to anyone, religious or non religious. It is always good to know both sides of the story. Besides the Miracle, who makes a LOT of money in BMX? Shit, I dont know? Not me. I've never really been into the numbers. Im sure Nyquist does alright being that The Unit probably cost him a few bucks. Josh Harrington shoudl be a millionaire based on pure skill alone. What are your biggest plans for this year? To not get hurt, make it on Dew Tour, and just go on a lot of trips. I also have plans/hopes to get the 20 dollars that Jeremiah owes me from rolling dice. However I think the first few goals are more attainable.
