Friends Come & Go, But Tattoos Are Permanent!

About Me

"A tattoo is a permanent symbol of temporary insanity." Well, there's really not much more to say about myself, than this. I can be your best friend or your worst fucking enemy. Everyone calls my friend Johnny "Short & Angry." Well, I'm "Big, Bald & Angry." I'm a pretty laid back person, and it does take alot to get me pissed, but when I am, I usually let everyone know. I can hold a grudge for the longest time, for the dumbest things. A trate that I have tried and tried again to get rid of, but always seems to come back. I don't have many friends, but the ones I do have, I would not trade for the world, well, maybe some of them I would. Some of them are not as loyal to me, as I am to them, but I take what I can get. Had a horrible time growing up because of my size, and for that I am the messed up person that people have come to know and I guess love. As I got older, it only got worse. Then when I went to college, I came to learn about myself. Realized that the people I was growing up with, were not the only people in the world. College completely changed my life and way of thinking. I went to Temple University and graduated with a degree in Communications and Electrical Engineering. I also taught Radio Production for 2 years there. If it were not for me going to Temple, then I would not know any of the people who I call my friends today, with the exception of one person, you know who you are and I love ya like a brother. Enough crap now. I'm a bad-ass motherfucker. Tattooed..Pierced..Stretched. You name it, I'll do it! I have a bad attitude in general. Very pessimistic, but a realist. It takes a special breed of person to be my friend. I'm not looking for friends, just people to talk to. I have my circle of friends, and it's closed. No one is allowed to leave, no one is allowed to come in. Take me or leave me, it's your choice. "If you're not living for something, then your dying for nothing!"

My Interests

Hmmmm, I'm interested in lots of things. I am a HUGE music buff. I have about 14,000 CD's and maybe 4000 DVD's. I like to read. I have a very expensive hobby and talent for mobile A/V. I like to customize my car. Recently got my motorcycle license, so I am into bikes now. Still looking for my first one. I like to sleep, but rarely do. I have insomnia, so if I get 3-4 hours of sleep per day, then that is a good day for me. I have an obsession with Atlantic City. I like to get in my car at 1am and just drive. I hate bars. I usually only drink on New Years, and usually make an ass out of myself, or someone makes a hoagie on my head, but that is another story. I surf the web way too much. Howard Stern is my idol and the reason I went to college. I am interested in anything that will put a smile on my face, which is rare.

I'd like to meet:

There's only a few people I'd like to meet. Number one being my grandfather on my dad's side. He died shortly before I was born, and my family always tells me that I am just like him in spirit & mind. Never met him, but have "seen" him many times. Never knew what he looked like, but I could describe him perfectly.Everyone always tells about the politcal heroes or literary figures they would like to meet. I'm not like that. I want to meet the people that make up me. My great grandparents. All of my family from all over the country, and in a sense myself. I said I started to learn about myself in college, but I still don't know everything about me. The reasons why I have done or do the things I do or did. What the hell goes on in this brain of mine. What I am thinking before I do certain things. That would be a pretty interesting meeting.And the last person I would like to meet, is not a person at all, and I have already met him. It is my Rottweiler Goliath. Lost him to cancer in October of 2004 and have never really been the same without him. I lost a piece of sanity when he died and I would actually like to get that back. I don't have children, and don't really want any, but he is and will always be the closest thing to a child of mine.

Music:

This is way too broad of a topic. Metallica is my favorite band in the world, with Staind coming in a close second. The epitomy of my existence is when Larry and me were onstage with them at a concert on July 4th 2000. I love all music. From B.B. King to Elvis Presley. From Garth Brooks to Public Enemy. I listen to everything. I will give anything a chance, and if I don't like it, at least I tried.

Movies:

Again, too broad of a topic. I love the classics, Gone With The Wind, Casablanca. I love westerns, The Good The Bad & The Ugly. Thrillers, Psycho, North By Northwest. Horror, Night of The Living Dead, Last House On The Left. Action, The Rock, Star Wars, Lord Of The Rings (ALL). I like anything that doesn't make me wanna kill a puppy or cry.

Television:

I watch a few shows and that's it. American Choppers, Mythbusters, Dirty Jobs, Inked, Miami Ink, Unique Whips, Build or Bust. Real World, Road Rules. Basically anything that comes on The Discovery Channel, A&E, MTV or The Speed Channel..................................................... ...........It goes without saying that Jack Bauer should be our next president, anyone that disagrees, do the world a favor and swallow a knife. I'm addicted to LOST, although it's starting to piss me off. Too many unanswered questions, and they keep introducing more shit. More so, I am a huge Prison Break fan, this show is just awesome.

Books:

I read every Michael Crichton book. The Bible, although I don't believe much of it. The Lord Of The Rings. The Lord Of The Flies. Les Miserables. Almost every Stephen King novel. Where The Red Fern Grows. I can go on and on. I read. Don't have to write every fucking book down to prove it.

Heroes:

My heroes aren't Superman or stupid shit like that. My heroes are my family. My dad, who worked for the U.S. government for close to 40 years, retired, and all he got was a cheap fucking fake gold watch and a shit load of bills. He worked his ass off to provide for us and never complained once. Got up at 5am, came home 6:30pm, everyday for 40 years. When his job moved to over an hour away, he got up at 4am, and got home at 7:30pm. Now he works a part-time job just to make ends meet because the people who make up our government are a bunch of fucking assholes who are only concerned with lining their pockets. Fuck the people who put them there. My dad was responsible for clothing each & every soldier during Operation Desert Shield and Desert Storm. If it weren't for him, they would still be wearing their jeans from high school.............................My mom is another heroe of mine. Worked in politics all her life to be bullied and harrassed out of office by a bunch of dirty old men only interested in her ass rather than her abilities. She fought back, and they got there's She is a very strong woman, and a person whom I admire very much..........................My sister Kim is also on this list. She had a life plan laid out for her, that was not hers. She was to do this, and do that, but it's not what she wanted. She found the courage to stand up for herself and break out of this mold that everyone made for her. She did what she wanted to. She fell in love, got married and has 2 beautiful daughters. I am very close to her and will always be there for her, no matter what..................................The last person is my sister Suzette. She was the good one in school. Nothing less than A+'s throught out school. Only person in the William Penn School District to go 13 years (kindergarten to 12th grade) and make honor roll every year. 52 semesters, all on the honor roll. She sacrificed going to a great college so my sister could attend an ivy league school. Became a nurse instead of a doctor because she wanted to be more in touch with patients, rather than look at them for a few minutes. She is the utmost example of a good, kind-hearted person. But the thing I admire most about my sister is her ability to NOT break down when she is needed. You see, my sister gave birth to twins 8 years ago. They were premature but healthy boys. A doctor/nurse mistake at the hospital killed one of nephews. Fortunetly someone was looking down that day, and decided he did not want to take Baby Jon with him, and let him come back. But, brought him back with a challenge for my sister. He knew my sister was capable of such a challege, so he made my nephew a victim of cerebal palsy & autism. My sister has the strength and patience to take care of my nephew like no one else can. When all others would have broken down and cursed GOD, she thanks him everyday for given him back to her. My nephew is not damaged, he is different. Not special, He is like everyone else, puts his pants on one leg at a time, except he made need a few more minutes to do so. I once asked her if she could take it back, would she? She said absolutely not. She always knew she was put on this earth for a reason, and that reason is to make sure her son has every opportunity to be a normal healthy boy like everyone else. My family is spectaular. And they are my hereos.
