About Me

Ever notice this section on most profiles makes you think, "Wow, are they conceited", "Wow, are they boring" or "Wow, who really cares"? So in order to hopefully keep you from thinking any of those negative things about me, I'll sum "me" up succinctly: too old to trick or treat, too young to die.What does that mean exactly to you, my profile visitor? I don't know but it sure sounds like it sums me up nicely. Now go do something worthwhile and quit reading strange profiles of strange people.

My Interests

Watching my kids in sports and other activities, taking photos with my growing (my wife says growing too quickly!!) camera collection, playing my guitars, going to concerts, working out, walking the dogs, watching old movies, collecting and playing albums, watching sports, making new friends and of course having the occasional drunken binge. Life's pretty good.
