About Me


Myspace LayoutsMy name is Jonathan Lee Shuskey, and I'm originally from Thomasville, NC. I am married to Teresa Ogden (now Shuskey), and we currently live in Makakilo, HI. I have two stepchildren, Austin (4) and Bella (1). There aren't words to describe how much I love the three of them. I'm still learning all the "Dad" stuff (diapers, cooking when Mom isn't around, etc.) but I'm enjoying every second of it.I'd say I'm a pretty average guy. I enjoy football (Carolina Panthers/Michigan Wolverines), basketball (Duke Blue Devils), and golf, and can normally be found in front of a TV watching one of them. I like to play every chance I get, but those chances can be few and far between sometimes.I'm also in the US Army, and I'm currently serving as the Army Liaison at the USO here in Hawaii. I was an infantry guy for about 5 years, and I'm enjoying a nice little break from grunt work for awhile.So, below is what I do in my spare time... Funny part is, some people do it FULL time and can't do it like this.Don't mind the terribly off key guy at the beginning... I'll save him in about 40 seconds.

My Interests

Music, singing, sports, watersports, pretty much anything to do with the great outdoors...

In the year 2007 I resolve to:
Blame Canada.

My Blog

Dear Pat

I'm right here. You don't have to go far to find me. If you have something to say, you damn well better say it to me. The bottom line is this... I've told you exactly what I think, and have no regrets...

Seeing clearly...

This one is an old one, but a good one still. Over the past few weeks I've been looking for some "clarity" in a lot of things. Wondering, "did I make a good choice?" "Was that really what I wanted to ...

High five for Chad....

Most of you may know that I'm a big fan of John Mayer's music. I'm also a big fan of John Mayer, the guy. I read this blog, written by John, today and thought it appropriate to share. I'm all about mu...

The ever changing "Circle Of Friends"

I find it amazing how fast things can change. I find it even more amazing how fast people can change. You know, how one day you feel like you know everything you need to know about a person (or yourse...

Vegas Anyone?

The Higher. Go now... download some music. The album is called "On Fire". The band, "The Higher". A couple of tunes to think about... "Rock My Body", "Weapons Wired", "Histrionics", "Insurance?". Get ...

Reign Over Me

Well, I just sat down and watched "Reign Over Me", with Adam Sandler and Don Cheadle, and let me say if you haven't seen it... go to Blockbuster now. The movie is great, but the music is even better. ...

Just me being happy with life...

For once in my life, it really feels like things are starting to come together. The past few months have really been incredible for me. I mean, I played with an amazing band... and proved to myself (a...

The Torrential Downpour, The Potential For More

One of the coolest albums out right now, and certainly one of my favorite bands (even though I just found them a few months ago), I think I may have found the signature song off the new album, "Singul...

The Military Is Overpaid?

I guess I will never understand people that think this way. For the most part, people in the military don't ask for much from the civilian sector. We just asked to be compensated so that we can provid...

My Flag

This happened back in NC and I'll be honest, pissed me off just a little bit. I may not share the views of the leaders in our country, but this type of disrespect is unreal to me.... Hard to believe p...
