About Me

RollingStones | Sundays, Jan. 7 - Feb. 4 | TCAG

My Interests


Most tech things interest me. Not so much building them and knowing how they work; I'm more into just playing with them. Of the various sports, I follow college football the most and am a life-long Auburn Tigers fan. I do a good bit of volunteer work for my church and I try to squeeze in a little WoW when I can.

I'd like to meet:


Killing Stone | HBF | Live in Charleston, SC 2005
Champagne High | Sister Hazel | Fortress

Music:

Shine On | NEEDTOBREATHE | Daylight
Some of my favorites are Hootie & the Blowfish , Sister Hazel , Dave Matthews Band , Edwin McCain , Nanci Griffith , Counting Crows , The Beatles , Steve Miller Band ...
If it was popular, top-40 stuff in the mid 90s, then I'm probably down with it. Too many artists to list.
The past few years I've also gotten into the contemporary christian music scene. You can't go wrong with Chris Tomlin, Jeremy Camp, David Crowder, Andrew Peterson, Natalie Grant...

Movies:


Yes, I watch them. Well, some of them. I have a weakness for 2 for $20 week at Best Buy and Circuit City and have a tendency to buy them and not even open them. Sucker for a good deal, I am.

I guess my favorite movie these days is Office Space. I also have a soft spot for good drama: The Shawshank Redemption and JFK rank up there for me. I'm a big fan of Bill Murray and Tom Hanks.

Television:

"YOU DON'T SNIPE IN CARRINGTON"
I've been known to watch a little TV. Well, I TiVo most things and watch them at my leisure; sometimes weeks later.I can't live w/o Lost, The Office, Survivor, and CSI.

Books:


I own some, but it's rare that I read for pleasure anymore. Historically, I've been into Stephen King. On the suggestion of a friend, I started reading the Harry Potter books recently. The four that I've read so far are pretty witty, actually. I just need more free time. I just finished the Penny Arcade book . Quality stuff there as well.

Heroes:

I've got 'em...just can't get a pic to work in this field for some reason.

Life After Death

Though the magazine folded last year some time, the Web site lives on...for some reason.  That's fine by me, as that means my few contributions are also still afloat.  For those of you who ...

Hairy Situation

So I had lunch with a couple of former coworkers earlier this afternoon.  Having not seen them in a couple of months, this was their first gander at my new, shorter hair style.  The first co...

New Profile Song

Until it get's deleted, my MySpace will play my favorite HBF song, "Leaving," which was on their newest ablum.  The trained ear will recognize the mandolin and harmonizing stylings of the great S...

MySpace sans Hootie

So, how come there's no "official" Hootie & the Blowfish account at MySpace?  I've just had to replace my song, yet again, as the non-official HBF account I found was terminated.  Certai...
