Tennessee Titans Myspace Layout
Hello everyone. I..m just a Southern gentleman looking share a little charm and hospitality with a nice young lady. I..m originally from Nashville, TN moved away to Tallahassee for school, then to Philadelphia and Atlanta for the job, and now back living and working here in Nashville. This is truly the NEXT great place in the South!I am for the most part a simple country boy, but I do have my bourgie moments..LOL Basically, I..m a silly cat with jokes for days and I will keep them coming in spite of them dying horrible deaths. I am pretty outspoken on a number of topics and love to debate or simply have a good conversation. I like fine dining, good music, and good company. To sum me up, I am a middle of the road type of brother -- some aspects of my life are complex, others are very simple.I am interested in reading notes and such so feel free to hit me up whenever.*****RIP to My Line Brother Greg L. Jones***** June 7, 1977 - January 5, 2006 He was a good brother & friend and was a blessing to many lives. May his family and friends have a feeling of peace and happiness that only comes from the Most High in this time of sadness. Greg still lives in our memories. OW OW Frat! LIPTTDID
