an ode to the finest

first and for most, captain America lives.... glory to his return, more later ...


what is an ode? glorifying an idea? a stable living hero? formidable justice?
YES, all these things manifested into one existence. for years I've had a brain trust, in truth, it was humorous and fun, but in many cases have helped me move mountains. For this is an honor to my brain trust...

to Caleb!



who else to blame for this? i wouldn't be who i am with out this man's intuitive help in my life. almost to me, a man i call brother, he's been my hero for ages, since i was a very young age. he awakened my imagination and showed me where the wild things are, how to find mordor, showed me where the closet of Narnia lies, helped me search for the lost ark with Dogg, we crossed the bridge to terabithia, we did the kessel run in under 12 parsecs, and we fought along side one another against the legion of doom. Caleb has always been there for me, like a good book, always there, always ready, always ready to open your mind. we were fellow actors, but we will always be fellow artists (in different aspects). from long talks @ 3 am, to flying kites in the middle of ford Field, he is ... well how else to explain it then an allusion ... he's like Yoda's light saber, he's batman's bat cave, he's Micheal Scott's "world's best boss" coffee mug, he's Han solo, he's Indiana, he is jimmy Hendrix, but all the while his greatness is always humble and that is crucial, nay his essence of his being, this is why Caleb is ... a legend.


to Matt!




Matt, good sir Matt, always like colossus in the x-men, a gentle caring soul but always ready to fight, but Matt here doesn't fight with fists (at times) he fights with his heart. my good friend matt has one of the kindest heart Ive ever seen, gentle and wise but with Klingon strength and honor, he fight for us... his friends. being a highly valued member of my brain trust, he has my trust, and my friendship. Matt is no mere side-kick to dear Caleb. Matt is like batman, and Caleb superman ... he brings new light and new persona to this squad of super individuals ... he's been there just as astute and humble as Caleb. for this he has my blessing.
