About Me



I'm married...so too bad ladies...I'm sorry. I wish all of you could be winners, but I have some nice parting gifts for you. I have two sons, Thomas and Hudson. It's cool being a dad and it changed my perspective on the world. I talk too much. I love music..I play guitar but then again who doesn't. I dig laughing at people falling down. I like art. James Brown was my hero, but now it's Dr. J. I think about strange subjects. I haven't had a dream that I can remember, when I wake up, in over 5 years.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Ric Flair, Bill Russell, Lee Roy Jordan, Merle Haggard, The White Stripes, Bob Weir, Allen Iverson and You!

Hudson Update!

On Wednesday, Hudson is having his circumcision.  So, that'll make his 3rd surgery.  They'll have to put him to sleep, because frankly, who'd want to be awake.   When he was born he couldn't have a ci...

Horrible Houndstooth

I haven't written a blog in a while.  Life has been busy.  Who knew that having 2 children, being a husband, running a business for 60 + hours a week, teaching a Sunday School class, and generally jus...

Birthday!!!

We had Hudson's 1st birthday party today.  It was a blast.  He opened.....maybe one present.  Thomas opened the rest.  But, Hudson wasn't really into opening presents....he's only 1 you know.  I had t...

Obama and Tom Sellek's Tears of Sadness

Ok, here are a couple of things that have been bouncing around in my head for the last few weeks.  I haven't been able to write as much lately, but I was usually posting a bunch of crappy stuff anyway...

The Walk

Christmas came early at our house.  It was today, and since the kids aren't old enough to read a calendar, we just told them today was Christmas.  Deidra has to work tomorrow.  She's a...

My Son’s Heart

Well, my son Hudson has had two operations and is doing fine.  He's pretty tough for a 9 month old.  The first operation was open heart and his second was to place a pacemaker in his abdomen...

Hudson Update

Hudson is having surgery on Wednesday.  I got mixed up and told some of you...probably a lot of you...that it was on Tuesday.  But, I'm an idiot...and Tuesday, we check-in and they start all...

Ramble-tastic

So, Hudson is going to have open heart surgery on Tuesday morning.  I'm not sure how I feel about that.  I've never been one to worry.  Out of the many traits that I inherited from my...

Stuff-tac-u-ler

I haven't written in a while.  Life has been busy lately.  Plus, I kind of made a promise to myself that I'd quit writing so much, because I was just churning out crap....and although it's o...
