About Me

I am 36 years old, live in middle America, happily married, 2 children, a home, and write some pretty powerful, uplifting rock tunes. I am a STRONG BELIEVER in RECYCLING. We have to watch out for this planet, as it cannot do it for itself. And, it is SO simple to do. I love to learn and explore. Please don't turn recycling into a "Political" issue, as it is so much more than that. Just look around you and remember what winters were like as a child. Remember, 6 billion and growing. We need to act and do it NOW!!!

My Interests

Music is all-time #1 (writing, hopefully recording and playing out in front of fans in 2008), family time is ultra important.

I'd like to meet:

I Would love to meet Jesus - well, he gave up his life so that I could enjoy everlasting life, Brian Wilson - as he is my favorite song writer, Joel Osteen - as he is my favorite pastor, Marcus Allen - was my favorite football player growing up, Kyle Busch - well because he is not Dale Earnhardt Junior who took his place and still has not won. I would have liked to have met Bobby Kennedy - he seems like he could have been president in 2008.

Music:

Rock and Punk Rock mostly. Love the hair bands of the late 80's/early 90's and really into the current "punk" sounding bands. I try to make it to the Warped Tour every year (what an amazing day of concerts). I like some of the beats of rap, but am not a huge fan of sampling others stuff. I like the creativity of a band that writes and performs their own songs.

Movies:

The Crow, The Count Of Monte Cristo, Thomas Crown Affair, American History X, The Fast And The Furious, V For Vendetta, The Legend Of Bagger Vance, For Love Of The Game, October Sky

Television:

24, Touched By An Angel (Sucker for tear jecker dramas), Due South (Truly a hidden jem), Behind The Music, Prison Break, 20/20, 60 Minutes, and the latest guilty pleasure - One Tree Hill, and yes I have to admit it - Drake and Josh. Don't laugh, when your kids like something, you will grow used to it. It is actually pretty funny.

Books:

The Bible. I like to read autobiographies/biographies about an actual person. Not really a big reader. Joel Osteen books are uplifting, and books about religion and politics peak my interest.

Heroes:

Jesus, Bullwinkle, my folks, anyone who can turn the other cheek and truly forgive someone who has wronged them, people who live the life they claim to be living or the life that they cast their VOTE for, people who can see beyond someone elses faults.

Tesla last night

Man, if you get the chance to see Tesla live, do it. They were awesome. Twin guitars, 80's hair metal. Need I say anymore.

The Big Blue

If you get a chance, rent a movie called "The Big Blue." It is from the late 80's about two diving friends, one is Jean Reno. Check it out. A true classic that nobody has ever seen.
