About Me

What can I say, I drag race. I have always loved drag racing, from the early 60s when I got my first hot rod parts from Eddie Hill in Texas. I come from the school of Hard Knocks and endless Honky Tonks. I have been all over the world and there is no place like home. I lived mostly in Arkansas and Texas. I lived in Vernon Tx, Dallas Tx, Ft worth Tx, Brownwood Tx and Houston............I have to go now my Parole Officer needs to use the computer.................................................... ............................................................ .........................................................Now that I have retired I find myself with a lot of time on my hands. I am a history buff so I think at least two times a year I'll go to some place here in the US that has a lot of history. Here are some of the places I have been.............. Civil War Battlefields in Kentucky................ Dachau Concentration Camp Germany................. Custer Battlefield at Big Horn Montana............. Mount Rushmore South Dakota..................... Graves of Wild Bill Hickok and Calamity Jane in Deadwood South Dakota......................... Guard House at Fort Sill Oklahoma here Geronimo was locked up........................ Petrified Forest and Painted Desert New Mexico...............The Alamo.................. Next stop will be: Bonnie and Clyde Festival May 23 - 24 2008 at Gibsland Louisiana.

My Interests

Horses, Rodeos, Drag Racing, Dancing and Wild Women. I have to stay away from the Wild Women for now because it's making me an old man, oops I am an old man, I forgot..............It takes more love to share the saddle than it does to share the bed.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone, I've never met a stranger. Oh Yeah, Dolly Parton, she is my favorite singer..............."Imagination is more important than knowledge" -Albert Einstein..............."Somewhere...somewhere in time's own space, there must be some sweet pastured place. Where creeks sing on and tall trees grow, some paradise where horses go. For by the love that guides my pen, I know great horses live again."- Stanley Harrison ......................................."Never slap a girl who's chewing tobacco"Never loan your car to your son!

Music:

Country,Old Time Rock & Roll.....I still remember the days of Buddy Holly and all of that good Rock and Roll music. Buddy Holly lived 150 miles from me and Roy Orbison came from my home town of Vernon Texas.

Grease...Dirty Dancing...The Buddy Holly Story...We Were Soldiers...Hamburger Hill...To Hell and Back

Lost in the 50's

I feel time has moved too fast. If I could I would get into my car and cruise back into time when things were slower. Street Rods, prestigious cars with fins and a lot of chrome. Saturday night cruise...
