In your words explain a little about yourself, who are you?
I have no title, self-proclaimed or other. I am just a man who likes to question and live life. I'm a seeker, a looker for truisms so I can get a deeper connection with my authentic self. I will never tire of trying new things, or going to new places. For me life is about the journey, not the destination. I am a hopeless romantic and I believe everyone is basically a good person. I know that with some you have to look harder, but we are all good. I like to live life to its fullest and enjoy good wine, good food, good friends and the company of men and especially women.

Lets begin the 20 Questions with...

1, Do you have any regrets?
Yes, one in 1976 and one in 1994.

2 , What is your first memory?
My earliest memories are a montage of different things when my family lived in Gem Village, Colorado. I built a snow sculpture of my invisible and best friend Duke, My mother got mad at me because the sculpture had a penis. My father hated snakes and he drew back a fisted hand at my brother when he tried to stick a water snake in his face. I saw my Grandfather Hack hide his whiskey in the ceiling of his room the only time I remember him coming to visit us. There're are more little snips of being in and around that house, but those were the dominate memories.

3, What is the stupidest thing you will ever admit to doing?
It is a tossup between having sex with my girlfriend while driving an old Dodge pickup as fast as I could down a winding country road while I looked over her shoulder, and hiding exposed film from British solders in Belfast, Northern Ireland while they had the car stopped at gun point.

4, What is your favorite guilty pleasure?
I like forgetting about eating right and my waistline, so I stop by a C-store and buy a Hostess Cherry, or Apple pie. I eat it all inside the car, within a three-block radius, without anyone seeing, or knowing that I have just dabbled with gluttony.

5, What would your porn star name be?
As I do not think I would like the vision of my big ass on the screen I would have to work behind the scenes in the porn industry, something like a producers, talent scout, or field tester. With that job title my porn name would have to be, "the Colonel."

6, What is the hardest drug you have ever done?
I never used a needle, I fear them, but if I could answer this question then I would not have done any hard drugs. I do know that I never tried anything just once. I'm also glad that I lived through my drug years, because I knew no bounds and at times it became a challenge to see how much I could do. It is a good thing that I don't do them anymore. I think drugs are a lot better now then when I was playing with them.

7, Are there any nude pictures of you in this world?
Yes, one. Email me for a link!

8, Do you prefer lights on or off during sex?
Depends on who I am with.

9, What is the wildest thing that you have ever done?
I'm not sure. I was a paratrooper in the Army, I've chased wild cows though the forest on horseback. I worked as a photojournalist in Northern Ireland and Nicaragua. I've climbed mountains and glaciers, repelled off cliffs and spent a lot of time snowmachining with Bill Webb. I have almost drowned in a lake when my canoe flipped and now I want to be in water all the time. My whole life has been a bit wild and full of adventure. The one thing about it all that I know for sure is Wild will keep you alive and I don't plan to stop anytime soon.

10, What do you wear in bed?
Are you supposed to were something in bed?

11, How many items of jewelry do you wear on a daily bases?
23 – One of the best things I have heard about all the jewelry that I wear was, "You’re like my mother, you wear all your jewelry at once."

12, Have you ever gone skinny dipping?
Yes, when there is no ice, on a daily bases. It is how I wash the day away. I cleanse the unpleasantness, the small parts of the day that do not agree with me by diving deep into the lake. As I feel the water rush by my skin so does the parts of the day that I do not want to keep.

13, When you close your eyes and relax, where do you go?
My utopia is a place where everything is calm and you can marvel in the sights and serenity around you. It's a place where you can be the person that you are, not who you are told to be. My life quest is to actually find this spot and I'm sure it is out there on an island someplace.

14, You can tell a lot about a person by the tittles of books on their bookshelves. What books do you have on your shelves?
As I look around to answer this question I see lots of art books, photography books and authors like; Leonardo da Vinci, Henry Miller, Richerd Brautigan, Richard Halliburton, Ernest Hemingway, Walt Whitman, C.S. Lewis, Peter Beard, Nick Bantouk, Hanna Hinchmen, R. Crumb, Jimmy Buffett, Will James, Jack Kerouac I could go on for pages and pages. Books have been a big part of my life and who I am.

15, What music has changed your life? Or what do you listen to.
Music has not really changed my life, although I did try to pattern my life for a while after Stepping Wolf and Born To Be Wild. I'm glad I lived through that era. What music does for me is makes me remember, it takes me back to different parts of my life. No mater what we have done, there is some music that will take us back to that moment.

16, If you could be in any profession, other than the one that you are in, what would it be?
A teacher. I think they are the most valuable people and profession that there is. A good teacher should inspire us to look.

17, Tell me something about yourself that most do not know?
 I am a wanted felon in Italy. 'nuff said.

18, How old were you when you lost your virginity?
Physically when I was 14. Emotionally when I was 15.

19, What have you not done that you must do before you die?
Set foot on all foreign countries.

20, Name someone that you admire and why?
My father. William Norman Abernathy. He had to quit school in the 8th grade, but was the smartest man I know. There was nothing that he could not do. If he don't know something he would learn. He never forgot that he was a father and he loved beyond all things his children. He has been gone for a long time now, but I still find myself wishing I could ask his advise.

21, When were you were invincible?
When I was young and growing up in Colorado. I was not afraid of anything. We use to play chicken on bikes and no one would ever turn away. I have had some tremendous head on crashes. A lot of skin and blood was left on the street, but nothing else. We always limped away laughing. We tried to jump ditches; over ledges off roofs with a sheet to break the fall, we skied behind trucks flying down a snow packed highway, we didn't fear anything. We were the Jackass shows before video.

22, When did you realize that you were not?
When I was a paratrooper in the Army. I jumped in high winds and my risers got tangle. I was coming down way to fast. I knew that landing was going to suck, I was out of control and it was going to be bad. I started to let all those thoughts flood into my mind, the thoughts you have before death, like the wrong things that I had done and the people that I loved. It was strange though I didn't feel any fear. Lucky it was not my time. I hit hard and just broke a lot of bones. As the wind was dragging me across the drop zone, bouncing off rocks and cactus I realized that life is a bit more precious than I had thought before.

23, The ancient Greeks believed that it was not what you accomplished in life, it
I would be at peace knowing that my art, my words and the person that I am have touched someone, helping them in someway. I have always lived my life as an open book. I do not hide what I have done. When I am gone I hope my children are proud and everyone will still want to read my life book. I want to be known as living life hard, leaving a wide wake with who I am, and whom I have met.  If I have made a few people wonder with the things that I have done, If I have made them think, then I have done something worth while. It has been said that, the number of people that come pay their last respects measures life. I hope that I pack the house on that exit day.
