About Me

I love cheese popcorn,Jack Daniels, and indian food. I write poetry just for myself. I'm a bit of a talker with a very extroverted personality. I love my family, my dog & my awesome friends. I believe in world peace, nonviolence and civil disobedience but I also believe that sometimes you just have to kick some ass.Interesting fact about me - Listening to Peter Gabriel makes feel connected with every other living being on this planet.
Scary secret I'll share - I enjoy killing fat ticks in the summer. I squeeze them with my bare hands. My picture is posted in the tick post office for crimes against tickmanity an..oparasites around the world.
I host a radio program called Beale Street Caravan - it's a roots music program broadcast around the world. www.bealestreetcaravan.com to find a station near you.
