Why can't we all just get along and be friends?

About Me

I am the father of two incredible young women who are truly the best thing in my life. I love to be surrounded by family and friends in places full of laughter and good cheer. Life is too short not to have fun and laughter and good times are what make life worthwhile.

My Interests

My kids, having fun with family and friends, listening to music, drinking good beer, fishing, golfing........

I'd like to meet:

George Bush and Dick CheneyThe asshole that invented CD packaging so I can bitch slap them for making it so hard to get at a CD.

Music:

I like a little bit of everything and my favorites include: Dave Matthews Band, Led Zeppelin, Counting Crows, The Who, James Taylor, Metallica, Johny Cash, Willie Nelson, Snoop Dog, The Beastie Boys, Jack Johnson, Eric Clapton, the Allman Brothers, Flogging Molly and the list goes on but not always in that order.

Movies:

I am not a huge movie buff. My favorites are movies like Forest Gump, Big Fish, Cider House Rules and The Shawshank Redemption.

Television:

I don't watch a lot of TV but I really like that new show "The Unit". It reminds me that there are real people that provide us with "The blanket of freedom" with which we sleep and all too often take for granted.

Books:

I just bought the worlds best seller and intend on reading thru it slowly. If you've read it and want to give me a guided tour drop me a line maybe you can help me make sense of it all.

Heroes:

Mary and Sharon the directors of the respite center in Hopkiton, MA. http://www.hopkintonrespite.com/ These are the most selfless people I have ever met in my entire life. I was fortunate that they came into my life when they did and I see it as evidence that God watches over us when we are in need. If you ever need to restore your faith that there are good people in this world just drop by the center they will welcome you with open arms.
