About Clinton

Born and raised shralpin the steep and deep up in Bozeman America, now on the sunny surfside in Southern Californaia. Workin hard and playin harder that's a mantra to live by in my book. All that aside, I'm a laid back, fun lovin, adventurous guy. Really not a fan of people who pretend to be something they aren't. I'm more the kind of guy that thinks that laughter is the best medicine, and life is far too short to waste. There's an adventure out there waiting, all you have to do is get off the couch, find something you are passionate about and get after it!

Crab Captured

Posted on June 2, 2009 by Clinton

Thank god I don’t have a bigger tank.  I finally decided to pull out my rock work and eliminate my mysterious black mythrax crab that had been silently poaching my fish and dragging them away to their watery graves. All … Continue reading →
