Every day, I wake up, and the first thing I think of is my kids.

People say I have a distorted lens. I think I see things as they really are.

In the end, the whole Internet thing kills me, because you can use it as a positive thing or you can read into all the negativity. And I think youve gotta put out positive energy, put out cool viral stuff, and then just stay out of peoples opinions.
