About Me

Ahhh... so if you've made it here, then you obviously got lost, or you really want some info about myself. I'm laid back, easy going, and don't take alot of things too seriously. I have a good sense of humor, and a patent on laziness. I do have a definate belief system when it comes to politics and relgion, though what someone else says or does that doesn't mesh with them, won't rock my world. I'm very comfortable in this area. Well, I could write more... but then again, who would read it? You should know that puppets are a big part of my life... I've been working with them since the early 80's! I would describe my puppetry as "Jim Henson's Muppet Show, but with a good hearted moral or theme". Not to mention I'm an actor at heart, jumping at the chance to get on stage in front of an audience! I've done several community theatre shows over the years, in addition to my "ad-lib" work at the AL Renaissance Faire. Now I just need to get paid when I act. lol

I'd like to meet:

Hey, I'm here to meet all kinds of folks! I do my best not to judge others, and I have a serious side and a goofball side too. So... if you like what you see/read here and want to get to know me then drop me a line.....

Music:

Ok, I'm a child of the 80's... and that's where heavy metal got the chance to go mainstream. That's right, heavy metal is at the top of my list! Guess the videos above were a clue eh? Currently, Power Metal has taken Europe by storm, and if you're out of the loop, search "Power Metal" on Wikipedia, and you'll get a link listing various bands you can then search on Youtube. Anyway, I don't count out other styles. I like a little bit of every style of music. You name it, and there's at least one group (probably more) that I like.

Movies:

Reference music here... I like a little bit of everything. From the Hollywood classics of the "Golden Age" to today's top box office hits. My least fave genre though would have to be horror.This is a video from the 2006 AL Ren Faire. Props to Concrete Dream Productions for this! Enjoy. And they get paid to give us this information!

Television:

Once again the above applies... I like a variety of things. Classic TV from "Nick @ Nite" and "TV Land" to current faves. Reality TV is probably where I am interested the least. Other than Americn Idol, I don't watch it. I don't watch much sports either... though I do enjoy figure skating and gymastics.
I like to call this - Faith in action! Ernest rules! Jim Varney was a comic Genius!

Books:

Ask most who know me... they'll tell you I don't read. But I have read The "Chronicles of Narnia" by C.S. Lewis, "The Hobbit" by Tolkien, and the "Harry Potter" series by Rowling. Maybe at some point in my life I'll have a wake up call and read more... who knows.
Surprise inside!

Heroes:

Jim Henson - puppet master
