About Me

.. .. Hi. I'm John. I like music. Pretty much everything, I like art. I hear I'm not bad. But who believes anyone anyway?
I used to be lame, and define myself by my problems. Thats stupid. so instead I am going to list the things about me that kick ass. Is that a little self indulgent? Yes, it is. ..Fuck you very much... :D
I am an engineering marvel. The world is a lessor place because, I never applied myself to the education and time necessary for structural engineering. I can build anything given enough time, money and motivation.
I ride mountain bikes. Its an obsession. I am probably faster than you think, and certainly more endurance than you imagine. But if you come with me on a ride, we'll have a great time shattering your illusions. And likely I'll get you hooked on it. Be prepared to spend some cash on a bike.
I still think of existence on a grand scale, although, I have finally accepted, my own personal minor role in it. I'm ok with it, and that acceptance has released me from the pressure of succeeding in a world where success isn't measured in personal happiness.
I believe in God, and consider myself saved. I have asked, God to save me, and I truly believe he is out there, and while me may or may not, personally dabble in our affairs, he listens none the less, and sometimes, that matters more than actually waving a "wand" and *poofing* your problem away. Everyone by now knows, I officially subscribe to the Intelligent design theory...I have my own personal theories about God himself, which I wont get into here, if you're curious or just want and engaging deep convo, ask.
I play bass guitar and a little rhythm guitar...I'm decent, I've played with a blues cover band for the past two years, which has morphed into a rock original act..we're in the process of writing our first original tracks..so it'll be a while, but very soon, it'll be alot more fun. I also played in a friend of mines metal band for a short time, and that was some fun shit, I got to let go and really let the energy come out..but it wasn't meant to be, unfortunately, as this friend had to go his own way.. I am a child of the 80's metal is in my blood, I will get back there, when the right opportunity arises.
and now to the most important kick ass thing about me.
I have two kids that adore me, I have a solid wife who has walked through the same hell and brimfire I did, I have a solid core of friends, who have my back and I have my pride back.
Join my bands friends list if you haven't yet...seriously..come support your local musicians, Tampa is a world renown cradle of rock..come enjoy the homegrown talent that is all around you.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I want to meet everyone. We don't have to like each other, but I want the opportunity to find out. I can generally get along with anyone, and I am excessively tolerant. Nothing disgusts me more than bigotry, if thats what your selling, I'm not buying, and I hope your mother spontaneously bursts into flames at dinner tonight. I also don't want to meet you if you have the misconception and notion that a man born in the south is stupid by nature. Ignorant ass people piss me off. No dumping on me. I have had enough negativity in my life to fill mine and yours. I don't want to deal with yours too. Don't get me wrong, if you are my friend and you need a shoulder or someone to listen, I am there for you, no questions asked. But don't make your first email to me, dedicated to telling me how much of a prick your babies daddy can be.
