Interests:
Family: Viviana and my two sons, Jacob and Noah. My co-workers/PPK Crew - "Unite and Take Over." Amateur Photographer (Canon EOS 30D) and Videographer (Sony HD-SR11) using my 24" Apple iMac. Spending weekends with the air conditioning cranked down to 68 degrees and getting under a king size comforter with my family and watching Blu-Ray Movies on my always "work in progress/self-designed" home theater/entertainment zone. Video Gaming is my late night passion. Here are my Usernames by Platform: Xbox 360 (PPKassassin), PS3 (PPKassassin), Wii (no username because this mostly for bowling tournaments when family is visiting, which seems like every other week). My nightly ritual: Fire up "Video Game/Home Theater System" in my Man Cave, Launch Halo 3, Drink Red Bull, Smoke Cigarette. And keep repeating until my wife wakes up around midnight and screams "Paaauuuul...Come to bed now" with pure Latino rage. It's life or death at that point, and damn't I choose life. "I'm coming Mama."
