E-A-G-L-E-S! Chocolate Ice Cream Hershey's Kisses and COFFEE, and hence a bathroom stocked with TP. Playin' da bass geetar, drawing, writing, playing, mapping and modding video games, reading, collecting knives and swords or anything that can poke your eyes out, and I would like to learn to read music and learn theory but after all these years of playing guitar it's still as foreign to me as Swahili, and my greatest interest is watching the look on my son's face as he discovers the world around him...

AMEN :)
