About Me

Crazy life these days... married 3.392 years now to a lovely girl (Leslie). I also have a baby boy, Connor. He was recently named "most attractive and physiologically symmetrical child in the U.S." according to the U.S. Baby Rating Survey. If you don't believe me, look up the results at www.usbrs.org. Anyway, I have lots of pictures of him posted under, well, my pictures.I have the honor of playing drums for my old friend Todd Agnew as we travel around this country. I used to be a computer/network guy, but I got the "dream offer" to leave it behind and play drums for a living. These days we are on tour most of the time.This musical life isn't nearly as glamorous as you might think. You have anywhere from 9-13 people on one bus, one toilet, and nobody can go #2. The good thing is that it is usually cold in there, so you sleep like a dead narcoleptic rock. When you aren't on the bus, you're in the van. You get to drive anywhere from 3 to 20 hours to get somewhere and play for 1-2 hours.I have a great family and great friends, many of whom are back in Texas.I play Spaun drums... great drums, great people. Check them out at www.spaundrums.comThe band and I wear NOTW clothing... great clothes with a great message! Thanks to Andy and Eve NOTW!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Mark Twain, Michael Moore (so I could kick him in the nuts), Jim Henson, Simon Pegg, Steve Coogan, Al Gore (so I could kick him in the nuts), the Monty Python guys, Adolf Hitler, Abe Lincoln, St Brendan, Weird Al, Helen of Troy, Mister Rogers (before he died.. I'm certain that the zombie Mr. Rogers would be quite frightening.)

My Blog

Media bias and failure to inform us... at least on what really matters

Recently the NY Times came out with an article that said they were "unfairly biased toward Obama in the election... Sorry." At least they came clean. Now, in light of the latest Zogby poll...

Christmas... and "christmas" music

Ahh, the Christmas season... it meant a lot more when I was a kid, or at least the commercial angle did, anyway. These days the holidays have turned into a time filled more with malevolence than jolly...
