About Me

Layout Provided By FreeCodeSource.com - Myspace Layouts Husband, brother, son, musician, videogame collector/entusiast, uncle, and Pun Wizard. these are some of the words i would use to describe myself. for those who know me(and especially my poor wife), congratulations on your extremely high tolerances for sarcasm, puns, and awkward jokes. I am a self proclaimed master of those realms and will continue to be, for as long as possible (weather permitting).I play guitar (I know big deal) but i also teach it(booyah). I'm not a "college" guitarist, which in short means I don't play 3 chord songs that begin with "kumba" and end with "ya". I play the blues mostly, which is odd cause i have a great life, but I'm preparing for that time when i become an old black man with no family or money, then I'll have some songs ready. the other side of that coin is my classical guitar playing. straight laced, century old music.I've got a record player in my bathroom and plenty of records to play on it. I shop at the goodwill, usually looking for old electronics or rediculous t shirts. I keep a lead pipe and a sharp awl in my truck just in case. I smoke pipe tobacco and enjoy beers and liquors.to view my arcade collection go here:http://www.vaps.org/members/member_detail.php?member_id =371921
