I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I've been happily married since 1992 and have been with my wife, Jodi, since our Jr. year of high school (1986). Have two wonderful kids in my son Jordan, who will be 13 this year, and my daughter Sydney who just turned 11. My daughter and I actually share the same birthday which is awesome!

My Interests

Love going to football and baseball games with my family. Usually attend at least two games a year. Like playing cards and have recently became a Texas Hold'Em junkie. Play in tournaments with friends and ... Free play only though!! I like to watch movies, and now thanks to the miracle that is DVR, I can watch all of my favorite shows whenever I want.

Music:

Pretty wide open on music interests. Don't really care for Country or Hip Hop though. Some of my favorite bands would have to be Godsmack, Pantera, Disturbed and Slipknot. I also like to listen to the hair bands of the 80's when we play cards. Hey, it's what I grew up on.

Movies:

Like most kinds of movies but don't really enjoy the horror flicks. I would have to say my favorite movies would have to include The Godfather, The Hunt for Red October, Braveheart, Indiana Jones, The Rock, Old School, Bruce Almighty and Animal House. As far as Christmas movies go there is none better than Emmet Otter's Jugband Christmas. On another note, whenever I am together with my brother and a couple other family members, everything that is said in someway is related to a movie quote.

Television:

Favorite show is House. Watch every episode I can. Also enjoy watching Friends, Everybody Loves Raymond, That 70s Show and Frasier. Medium is also on the DVR record list as is DirtyJobs. I also am a sports junkie and will watch almost anything sports related.

Books:

Pretty much anything written by Stephen King. Ever read Cujo? That book will scare the shit out of you! Did just finish reading The DaVinci Code, which was pretty good. Once again, the book is better than the movie. Going to start reading the Dog Whisperer book tonight.

Heroes:

I have kind of outgrown the hero phase of my life as I really try to live my life the best that I can and have some fun along the way!
