I've always been an outdoors person, I grew up surfing and skating, and it's crazy because even though I hadn't been on a skateboard or a surfboard for 10 years I'm back at it. The jobs I've been doing lately have provide me with stuff I like to do. I'm a white water river guide, on the Colorado river through the grand canyon at times, and most the time I'm a wild-land fire fighter for the past 8 years. But all this was when I was living in Peach. But now I'm back in S.D. doing frame work. Theres no camping in framing! I'm also crazy on the art work, my specialty is hopi wood carving, although I am getting into oil painting.I'll always be an artist, cause I'll always be a dreamer.

The Doors take me back to my hitchhiking hippy daze. I love that movie Once were warriors that was like seeing the rez on the other side of the world, besides there was a time when my household was getting that bad. Mainly the big parties every night. Real eye opener. I mostly love comedies, I don't know that girl whose the main character on the house bunny, but she's been putting out some funny-ass s###!I first saw her on Just Friends. I also can watch Shawshank over and over, but I read the book first and I was dissappointed in the rapiest dude. At the book I cried at the ending. My native movies are Dance me outside, Wind walker, and little big man. Old clint eastwood movies are still the bomb, old Karate movies are in there too, and you can't forget Dragon the Bruce lee story. I have just seen some great movies, Mogol, the Ghengis Khan story, and some other old fav's like Rapa-nui, actually don't know how that spelled, and after seeing the movie Twilight, I am now hooked and inspired to buy the books!! I'm sure I'll still be adding on, as time goes by........

I have been through every phase possible except country, But as of today I love the blues, and the sounds of artist like Eryka Badu, Nora Jones, Janice Joplin, Yeah Fergie, Jill scott is now way at the top of my list!! Can't forget Aretha Franklin! Another new one is Jasmin Sullivan. In my skating days I listen to a lot of punk with Fugazi at the top of my list, Suicidal Tendencies, I was also into Janes Addiction, The new Radical's, Blind Mellon, and growing up in the San Diego scene I saw and jammed to a lot of underground stuff.I still love some of the older rock stuff like some old Iron Maiden, old Motley Crue, I also went through the Cure, Ska-maddness phase, I was a break dancer so I listened to all the old beats, I love to cruise with some rap s### like S.P.M, Unk, Three-6-mafia, I'm also into the alternitive stuff like sublime, Kottonmouth kings, I was into death metal for awhile Slayer! I've been to coffee shops where somtimes the single singer can bring a tear to the eye. Ottmar Liebert, a great flamenco guitarist. I've been to classic concerts, operas, and jazz shows. very classy stuff that would knock your socks off. Bella Fleck and the Flecktones were one of these!! I felt like a rastafarian for awhile. I really miss Hopi songs and Kachina dances, man I wish I learned those songs. And of coarse I love hipphoppannomis! Music is very important to me, and I'm proud to say that my music library is filled with all the above. I really havn't gotten into pow wow very much, although my daughter Sonwai is in the pow wow circuit bird dancing. I have heard some great stuff though, Some country is cool too. I'm just too much of a city boy!! But still grew up with mom's George Straight, Lee greenwood, Conway Twitty, Patsy Cline, Lorreta Lin, all the artist on soundtracks like urban cowboy! Man I don't remember them all but my mom got up at 5 in the morning blasting country and making breakfast!! Now that takes me back to the day!! I did that to my kid's, just with differant music!! Mostly blues or reggae, some great morning music!!

I have read some great books, I love The People of the Mammoth series, And am recently reading all of James Mishners stuff, If your not familiar I highly suggest, Mexico, Centennial, Alaska. It's not what you think, I guaranty you'll be pleasantly suprised! Theres also this book called Trigger fish Twist thats hillariouse as hell, If you've been through some of that s###! Also another book called Rain of Gold is very inspiring. I love to read but these are some of the ones that stick out of mind at the moment.

Lost native! Hualapai/hopi. Living in Cali.Went from fast hard livin, to kinda good boy. I love being in sobriety, and hope to meet the same like. Sooo far I've terorized the hopi, hualapai, navajoe, supai, moapa, and a small piece of the tohono'odham stompin ground's. my home ground's are Moencopi (hopi) Peach Spring's (hualapai) and back and forth from Flagstaff to Encinitas, where I am recently residing. So yeah I travel alot, only cause I have family in all area's. I was mostly raised here in S.D though. Back in the day I hitchiked all around Az. went to alot of gathering's and survived! Ha! I have four beautiful kid's in Peach, and a beautiful teenage daughter out at Hopi. I know, I know I've been a bad boy, but those daze are passed, I'm very close to my four younger one's and am now getting to know my teen. which is kinda scary, but absolutly one of my hardest goal's in life. Sobriety is a little lonely, but I figure I deserve it for all my emotional crimes of the past. But I really hope to meet somone that's not only understanding, but can relate. Cause I know that I'm not a bad person, I just did some of the jacked up thing's that some of us do when we drink! So hope to hear from ya, Late. Oh yeah!! I'm on myspace.com/jacksonb919

Bad boy gone good!! Man there was times I could say where I thought I was the s###! But life has a funny way of teaching humility, either that or I'm just getting old! Ha! Just kidding, I am starting to mature in my thinking though, the party is no longer the goal for me, the secret to live and to love is to learn and grow! And I would love to share my beautiful expierences with other's. I still have alot of goal's, but there's no better time to start than now! Yeah I'm on face book too but only from time to time. Not very much though!!

I really dig on open honest, outdoorsy type of a woman, book smarts are o.k. But it's no comparison to street smart wisdom. Buuut, in all honesty I've dated all sorts of great women that most are still my friends. Not to throw up any red flags, because I treat a true friend like a true friend. I've also been on both sides of the cheater meter, that I would not only want to be in any emotional pain, but I wouldn't want to ever put that on anyone either. Man that s### hurts! But really to get to my kind of thinking is to have lived it, to me life's greatest lessons can only be lived to really learn. With that my only real turn on is to be real!

I really can't be around a judgmental person. I have always been able to find the beautiful side of just about everyone. But being around negativity is just a turn off. Also its really not that hard to make the best out of any kind of situation. I also want to say cheaters, but I've been a sucka and forgiven, but it's hard as hell to forget. But I'm man enough to stick it out if I love the person.

Aaahhh Man I think any one of these profiles opens up alot of chapters in my life. But I really make an honest effort to live by two rules, and thats be as honest as you can be no matter how much it hurts, now this one is a hard one and I didn't always follow through. Especially in my drinking years. Also never burn your bridges. I'm good at this one. I am now in sobriety and loving it! For the past 11 years I've been in and out of a relationship with my babies mama, which pretty much explains why I'm back here living at my dads house in S.D. I am soo proud of her, she's also in sobriety, a little longer than me. But we've done soo much crap to each other that its better to remain friends for both of us, rather than put our kids through hell. She'll always be in my heart, just not in my bed! All in all I'm pretty straight up and probably one of the coolest people you'll meet!!
