About Me

I'm "The Jersey Cowboy" MAC III, or just Jersey Cowboy for short. I maintain this page as a way to stay in touch with all of my MAColytes, to give them a glimpse into the mind of the legend (well, I'm a legend in my own mind, at any rate).
I served for 3 years as MOS 11-B in the US Army until I was honorably dishcarged in 2005. Now I work, attend school, and play lots of video games--the whole "civilian" thing. I've worked in the security field for most of my time out of the military, which I enjoyed, but I left due to a mixture of personal reasons and a better job offer in retail. Ugh, retail. But I love GameStop, and it's exciting to be a purveyor of video games. Plus, you gotta love that employee discount!
I enjoy playing Dungeons & Dragons as well. I've been playing the game in some form or another since I was 13. It's a part of my life, it helped shape who I am. I enjoyed the DragonLance movie, I was disappointed in the *CENSORED* movie. I am very disappointed in everything I read about 4th edition, and I'm equally excited for Paizo's Pathfinder RPG, aka D&D v 3.75. 4th edition killed Gary Gygax.
I am a professional wrestler; of late I've been working for NWS , where I've established a healthy following. Although I don't get to watch wrestling nearly as much as I'd like, of late I've enjoyed TNA's product moreso than WWE's. Of course, I like what I do on the indy scene most of all, and only wish I was booked every weekend, not just a couple here and there. Any upcoming show dates will be posted in my blog, on the bulletin board, etc.
RANDOM FACTS: I wish I made more time to read, and I wish I read as fast as I did in high school. I'm a married man with a child on the way. I love video games; I'm a Nintendo junkie. I like to write poetry. I refuse to "grow up." I've got roots in the Garden State but I don't plan to re-sign my lease next year, because this place is going to Hell in a hand-basket and I just don't know how much longer I can afford the ride. I love boobs. I prefer the Pokemon TCG to Magic: The Gathering. Ich spreche ein bisschen Deutsch, aber ich bin Amerikaner. Sumo wrestling is cool. I've been working on a novel for 3+ years. I could eat at IHOP every day for a year and be very happy (and fat). I cried at the end of Joe Dirt the first time I saw it. I didn't start listening to real music until almost the end of high school. I'm a God-damned war veteran!

My score on The RPG Class Test :

Assassin
(66% Combativeness, 60% Sneakiness, 50% Intellect, 50% Spirituality)

Violent and deceptive: You are an Assassin.Score! You have a prestige class. A prestige class can only be taken after you've fulfilled certain requirements. This may mean that you're an exceptionally talented person, but it probably doesn't.Skulking through the shadows... hunting their prey without remorse... Assassins are some of the most dangerous killers in D&D, and evil bastards to boot.You're not necessarily evil, but you are both violent and sneaky. Chances are you aren't very honorable. Though who knows? You might have some noble goals, even if your methods tend to be... unorthodox. You might just be a Slayer of Domiel or something.
