Welcome to Eccentric America. I started this project about 11 years ago to learn HTML, but has grown into something I'm really proud of. I hope you have as much enjoyment viewing my photo's as Ive had collecting and displaying them. :)

Out beyond glitzy theme parks and shiny tourist traps lies the inconspicuous attraction that most of us pass by with only a slight chuckle at its ridiculous appearance. This page is dedicated to the bizarre, mundane and even ridiculous oddities most of you take for granted as you pass by on your way to work (and I drive 300 miles to see!).

My name is Mark Jackson, I'm 34 years old, and live just East of Metro Phoenix, and currently employed as a Web Designer for a company in Carpinteria, California.

I love to travel! But since I can't afford (afraid) to fly, I end up taking a lot of really long road trips. Driving around the country, collecting weird things has become sort of a bizzare obsession for me. Just remember, you're not wasting nearly as much time viewing these, as I spent looking for them!

ECCENTRIC AMERICA NEEDS YOU!

Guilty of Being White!	Mar 12, 2008
According to an article I read last night, you're only racist if you're white.
Taking back Christmas	Nov 13, 2007
At what point does America say enough is enough and stop measuring how good Christmas was by how well the economy is doing in January? I'm here to offer an alternative.

Lighting a fart on fire is harder than it looks.
FUCK the Homeless!	Apr 23, 2007
I've never been a big fan of the homeless. You're never giving your change to the eccentric, super-smart guy, down on his luck, that just needs a little food and a warm place to sleep before he imparts upon you all of lifes wisdoms he gathered while living on the street that Hollywood likes to portray. No, homeless people now fall into one of two categories for me. They're either batshit crazy, or they're lazy, worthless assholes.

Five and a half months in the making.... my daughter chooses the best of all first words to say.
