DL: So Kurt, last I checked you weren't a professional photographer. How do you support your expensive habit?

KH: I still have lots of family in Bogota. We have a successful import/export business. And by the way, I'm as professional as most the pro skiers and snowboarders I've been working with over the years. We all work in restaurants and stores. You new ladies to town got that? I'm a PRO. I got stickers and T-shirts and all that stuff.

DL: Ever plan to do it as a living, or just live doing it? And no, I don't mean 'doing it' for a living, but I bet you could make a good living taking pictures of stuff like that. eh, eh?

KH: Why can't I be 'doing it' for a living? I bet I can make a better living 'doing it' than taking pictures of stuff like that but if it comes down to it I'll take the pictures but really I plan to just be 'doing it'.

DL: How'd you get into photography in the first place?

KH: I was sittin' around smokin' when I was like, "dude, did you see that?" and nobody saw it so I thought it wasn't real and so I smoked some more and saw it again and at that moment I was like,"dude, I gotta get a camera."

DL: What kinda photography gets you goin' these days? Action? tree hugging? Running with the bulls and travelling?

KH: Tree hugging action with travelling bulls on the run.

DL: I always have to ask this question... If you could smuggle a camera into any event/location/predicament/scenario on the planet, where or what would it be?

KH: Well under the Clinton administration the oval office probably had some interesting goings on but I don't think much of anything goes on there anymore. What are all of Georges Enron buddies up to these days? I'm sure they got some interesting dealings on the go.

DL: Any thanks?

KH: Mom, Dad, Bombardier, My Friends, B.C. agriculture, The 49th parallel, The U.N., The red cross, Amnesty International and the hard working people of developing nations

DL: How about NO THANKS?

KH: Republicans, Brigham Young, Republicans, Clean White SUV's, Republicans, Bush (we all know what kind of bush I'm talking here don't we?) Republicans
