About Me

br Retired Chicago S.H.A.R.P

My Interests

Playing and spending time with my family. In no particular order but all of equal importance... Music, making and listening, horseback riding, canoeing, Disc Golf, White Sox baseball, Bears football, beer and bratts. Playing games, PC, PS2 and AD&D. I get some flack from my buddies about the D&D. I'm kind of a closet dork. If you don't have XM, you've gotta get it. Opie & Anthony, next to MLB is the best reason to own it. Spread the virus.

Create your own visitor map!

I'd like to meet:

I dunno, good additions to parties. People with good stories or able to make new ones. Wallflowers need not apply.

Music:

Most any and all. It's easier to say I don't care for hip-hop or country pop.

Movies:

Typical guy stuff I guess. Westerns, sci-fi, action-edventure, comedy, war movies and horror. Clockwork Orange, Full Metal Jacket, LOTR, 1st 3 Star Wars, Tron, Snatch, Enter the Dragon, Easy Rider, Conan the Barbarian, Mad Max. This could go on for a long time. Get the picture?

Books:

Here's a couple authors. Stephen Ambrose, Terry Goodkind, Robert Jordan, J.R.R. Tolkien, William Goldman.Hustler and Penthouse

Heroes:

My Grandpa, Robert D. Winn.Paul Reubens. Not really but we can't forget all the good in the world because of Pee Wee's Playhouse.
