I'm a pragmatist.....I think everyone is an asshole but me!!!

About Me

Layout Provided By FreeCodeSource.com - Myspace Layouts 48 year old die hard hippie truck driving musician. Married with 7 kids, (step and actual) and three grandkids. My job takes me to KS, OK, TX, AK and MO mostly, and I am usually home every night, and always off on weekends. I run about 100,000 miles each year, so I stay busy. When I'm not working, I can usually be found at home, spending time with my wife and any of the kids that happen to be around. (only two still live at home). I enjoy playing music, I play the drums, guitar, bass and keyboards, and have a room full of instuments I don't get to play as much as I would like. I also enjoy tinkering in the garage, and working in the yard. I almost never watch tv, so if you talk about what happened on "24" or "lost", I would be clueless. When I do venture out of the house, it is usually to visit my best friend Mike, which some of you may know as "FastCarsOldGuitars".

My Interests

My wife, kids, music and history

I'd like to meet:

Rachel, (from Genesis 28). Jacob worked for free for 14 years in exchange for her, so she must have been something! Crazy Horse, Robert E. Lee and John Mellencamp. I would also like to meet my paternal Grandfather. He died when I was two, so I technically have met him, but I never got to know him

Music:

I like some of just about everything. I enjoy rock and roll, blues, folk, country, celtic, bluegrass, classical, baroque, and even some rap.

Television:

Don't watch it.

Books:

The last three books I have read are "Castles of Steel" by Robert Massie, "Perfect Women" by Colette Dowling, (no it is not a picture book), and "Boogers are my Beat", by Dave Barry. I guess you could say I have "eclectic tastes" in literature.

Heroes:

My dad.
