I AM THE GREAT CORNHOLIO

About Me

I am not who I would be if I wasn't who I am.

My Interests

Music of all kinds but especially bluegrass, jazz, funk, fusion, Phish, and New Orleans artists. New Orleans in general...I think of it as home even though I don't live there. Playing my fiddle/violin and drums when I get the chance. The Paris metro, baguettes, cheese, wine. Campfires and walkin' around in the woods on Lookout Mountain, or most any forest for that matter. The Atlanta Braves...the only sports team I really follow closely...we'll be back next year.

I'd like to meet:

As many different kinds of people as I possibly can.
