Whats Bazy Up To These Days:
Lately I have been working hard at the school. I am the lead sponsor for the Riviera Middle School Drum Line and it takes a lot of my time. My new band is playing out and we are having a great time with it. It has been a wonderful time in my life lately for catching up with old fiends and making new ones.

I started out as an Air Force Brat...born at Mac Dill AFB in Tampa Florida, traveled the world and ended up in Texas where I spent my high school days. The summer of my 16th birthday I came back to Florida for a visit and decided that when I turned 18 I was coming home for good. I joined the Highschool band as a drummer in 1981, played Tennors for the next 3 seasons of marching band and played trap set in Jazz band durning the same years. Flying became my favorite thing in 1985 when I started flying single engine planes out of the Sheppard Air Force Base Flying Club. I currently hold license to fly single engine, fixed wing, VFR, with complex and high performance endorsements.

My Interests



Here is a video that shows my favorite memories from my classroom this year. I had a wonderful bunch of students and we did a lot of crazy math lessons. Press stop on the music above and press play on the video below...and enjoy.

Here are some songs that I have played on.
You click on the link here to be transported to e-snips. I am not tricking you into transporting to some kind of pay site or anything like that. When you get to the site the song should start to play automatically.

This first one is the latest song that I played on in the studio. You can find the song writer in my top friends list as Flash.
