About Me


You start with a bag full of luck, and an empty bag of experience... The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.
So why am I holding two empty bags..?
I'm sick of following my dreams...I'm just going to ask them where they're going & hook up with them later.
So they say..."If you've got nothing good to say, say nothing at all..." That's useless...and it's not something good to say, so they shouldn't have said it.
Sometimes I hate everything...then I remember, I love the George Strait song "I Hate Everything" and it shatters my illusion.
I sing, I write, and I have a healthy hatred of reality...You'll find me with a Guinness and a book down at one end of the bar
I change my song frequently...If you know or like the song playing, then you're either a friend of mine...or should be. Give me a shout.
Some Favorite Twain Quotes:
"Last week I stated that this woman was the ugliest woman I had ever seen. I have since been visited by her sister and now wish to withdraw that statement."
"When we remember we are all mad, the mysteries disappear and life stands explained."
"After all these years, I see that I was mistaken about Eve in the beginning; it is better to live outside the Garden with her than inside it without her."
"Do not tell fish stories where the people know you; but particularly, don't tell them where they know the fish."
"I am the only man living who understands human nature; God has put me in charge of this branch office; when I retire there will be no-one to take my place. I shall keep on doing my duty, for when I get over on the other side, I shall use my influence to have the human race drowned again, and this time drowned good, no omissions, no Ark."
Yeah, masquerading as a normal person day after day is exhausting...
You Are a Visionary Soul
You are a curious person, always in a state of awareness.
Connected to all things spiritual, you are very connected to your soul.
You are wise and bright: able to reason and be reasonable.
Occasionally, you get quite depressed and have dark feelings.
You have great vision and can be very insightful.
In fact, you are often profound in a way that surprises yourself.
Visionary souls like you can be the best type of friend.
You are intuitive, understanding, sympathetic, and a good healer.
Souls you are most compatible with: Old Soul and Peacemaker Soul What Kind of Soul Are You?
I guess that's about right...they forgot the Loyalty to the Few...

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Will Shakespeare, Hank Williams, Waylon Jennings, Keith Whitley, Albert Einstein, Dale Earnhardt, George Carlin, and Mr. Clemens...wait, they're dead. O.K...then anyone who can dig theatre, hillbilly songs, doesn't question when I take off into the woods or in the canoe for hours at a time without telling anyone, and understands...never mind...they'd never understand.

.. Gorgeous...set design from Hell..
