Looking Forward.... (AND I'M NOT AMISH!!!)

About Me

"King Edward" of Raleighwood. ************************************************************ I never got past 5'8" It would have been nice. All the things I would have done if I was at least 6ft tall. Like what kind of things??? sports primarily.************************************************** ********** I lived in Deerfield MA for 13yrs. It was alright. The biggest thing I take from there is the few friends I made and the girl that moved down here with me. She and I grew up, but grew apart since what we wanted in life changed. It's not easy to lose your closest friend of 12yrs. We wish each other well, thankfully. Not everything has to end in badly.****************************************************** ****** I went to college for a year and half, but dropped out and moved to NC in 1998. I had wanted to be a teacher...************************************************** ********** I work at a plastics company. I could be doing much worse job wise. It pays well, so I'm not complaining to much. Im the production supervisor. I work wtih some great guys who I truly do value and appreciate. www.pacrim-inc.com I used to work retail management for a few years as well... EB Games, FYE/Coconuts Music, and Gamestop... I worked with some decent people through those years as well.******************************************************* ***** Playing, Writing, Recording, and Listening to Music. I've been known to be a decent Guitar player... with some Piano ability added in for good measure. It's not just a small hobby as I've put in a lot of money to sound good. I love writing music. I really do. It's the thing that keeps me saine. www.myspace.com/edwardrorabaugh***************************** ******************************* I have a great family and some wonderful friends. My family has a "Walton's" Dynamic, but with a 2000's twist on it. here at the house are my parents, my brother Steve, his cool wife Heather, and our 2 dogs abby and izzy. As for friends and my extended family most of them live furter away but I Thank You guys for floating by my page from time to time to say Hi.********************************************************* *** I am not a fan of my generation. They want something for nothing and are quick to blame everyone else but themselves. The wreckless partying past the college age, the selfish "me me me" tendencies, the Rich folk that feel they are ABOVE everyone else, and people that are insensitive to what others are going through... not everyone may have the same problem and sometimes those problems might be superfical, but we all hurt just the same. Be Kind to your fellow man becuase what you put out WILL come back at you.******************************************************** ****I don't think that women should be 110, D-Cups, and 5'8" Everyone changes in shape and size over their lifespan. If you've got a nice face, good attitude, and the ability to take life how it comes at you and not freak the hell out, I think that you'll have a pretty decent life.******************************************************* ***** I would be classifed as Straight Edge. No smoking, drugs, or alcohol. I don't preach that I'm better than you because of that. If you want to smoke, smoke. If you want to drink, drink. If you want to party, PARTY. I'm the guy that you call when you need a friend to pick you up instead of driving drunk or high.******************************************************* ***** Im happy with who I am, where I am, and where I'm going. Period!

My Interests

Music (listening too and writing/recording/playing)I admit that I like Sports, but ESPN.com pretty much takes care of my "who won?" I can still play basketball, but i'll play anything even thoughI'm not fantastic at all of them. Billards/Pool (be it in person or virtually). The beach and the Moutains are both wonderful places! I'd like to see some snow! Talking...Moderate Gaming... (would chicks rather have their guys playing video games or hanging out at the clubs with their buddies searching for ass? I rest my case on guys playing video games.)

Music:

Alice in Chains - Jerry Cantrell - Zakk Wylde/ Black Label Society (BLS) - Guns N Roses - Fuel - Shinedown - Seether - Nickelback - Velvet Revolver - Lenny Kravitz - Keith Urban - Allison Krauss - Rob Thomas & Matchbox Twenty - Chris Daughtry - Saliva - Amanda Ghost - Zero 7 - Sia - Bryan Adams (yes, that 80s-90s guy) - Gary Allan - Keith Urban... and a whole host of others... including my own music I write.

Movies:

All sorts of stuff.... Comedy, Drama, Action, Suspense. Top Gun - Happy Gilmore - Borat - Star Wars - Lord of the Rings - How to lose a guy in 10 days - Sixth Sense - Fallen... and so and and so on.

Books:

It's hard to find anything that I'm intersted in. I've tried and tried to find things, but even recommendations are so so. I guess I'd read horror novels at this point since that's about the only thing that could probably hold curiosity.

Heroes:

The Meteor or Asteroid... My parents did well... Bill Gates (for pushing computers into the fore front of everything).
