About Me

I'm a kid trapped in an old guy's body. I screwed up some things in my life and now I'm trying to live life a different way. Who says "nice guys finish last"? That's bullshit! There's nothing wrong with being nice...just don't be a sucker!

My Interests

Nature, Playing Guitar and Singing, Songwriting, Meeting New People.Here's a slide show of one of my favorite interests...my Grandson, Warren:
I think we spend far more of our money and resources locking people up for life than we do teaching our children how to live. I'm interested in doing something to change that. Does 3-Strikes Work?

I'd like to meet:

Hmmm....from the Chumash Pow wow May 17, 2008

Music:

Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Jars of Clay, Merle Haggard, Leon Russell, John Lee Hooker, Allison Krause, Led Zepplin, DC Talk, Keith Green...and on and on.

Movies:

Little Big Man, Band of Brothers, Godfather, the Notebook, Apocalypto, Pan's Labrynth and so many more.

Heroes:

Jesus Christ is the Greatest Hero that ever walked this earth!
