About Me


Since you came to my page I'm assuming you want to know a little more about me....so I'll start by saying "Quit being so damn nosey!!" Hahaha
OK,OK, I guess I'll try to sum everything up the best I can.
My name is Shawn. I grew up in a little town called Kannapolis, NC. The early years flew by way to fast. I wish could could be 10 years old again. Once the teen years came I started a slight rebellion against my parents (Like I'm sure most of you did because parents are just not "cool" at that age). I became addicted to rap music...it was such a low point in my life. Eventually, I enrolled myself into a 12-step program and began to admit I had a problem. I finally realized my roots were planted firmly in the country...and that's where I've been for about 10 years now,and I've brought my wife of 7 years,Julie, along for the journey.
Once I came to grips with my 'redneckedness" I got a tattoo or two to reflect it (ok,so I'm up to 6 now,but who's counting?) Julie received her first tattoo long after I did and she currently has a few more than I do.
I enjoy sitting in my bedroom playing guitar. Why in the bedroom you ask? Well, I play in the bedroom because I have always had a very strong shyness that I have not been able to conquer. I've thought about hypno-therapy but I'm afraid I'll be stuck barking like a dog for the rest of my life.
I'm an active member of the APA (American Poolplayers Association) and have been for a few years now. My team has gone to the Vegas Qualifiers several times,but unfortunately we've failed to qualify. We'll get there one day I hope.
Well,I guess that's me in a nutshell. If you want to know more, just ask.
