Too many to list. Ill get to this. Currently, its work. And Fiddling of course.
Reading, nerding out, collecting instruments, dirty dancing (not the movies...just dancing), growing tomatos, grilling corn, yardwork.
Music
Just about anything. Currently, my MP3 player has the following. Bjork, Pixies, Hank (I and III), Superfriendz, beulah, Little Grizzly, Sparrows, Jasper Stone, Ryan Adams (lots), Beaver Nelson, Mo Robson, Collin Herring, Misfits and Edith Frost. Del the Funky Homosapian. In General, my leaning is towards that whole alt-country/punk/rockabilly roots stuff.
Movies
Repo man, Strange Brew, Napoleon Dynamite, Gonna Get You Sucka, Dogma. Ones where lots of things go boom.
Last reads were. Hells Angels - Hunter S Thompson, Fat Land - Greg Critser, Rescuing the Bible from Fundamentalism: A Bishop Rethinks the Meaning of Scripture - Bishop John Shelby Sprong, Winning at Blackjack (ya right)

DROPPING BY TO SAY HI AND TO LEAVE ONE OF MY STORIES OF UNFORTUNATE TIMES!
'WHAT GNAWS ON MY SPINE'
Awakening back pains are a strain on my brain. What I thought was the rain, And arthritical pain Was far from the answer, the doctor explained.
“What you’ve got here are teeth, That lie deep beneath Your lower spinal frame.”
I listen in aw, as he starts to explain That what I was feeling, And my continuous screaming, Was not from a dream, But simply a twin, That settled right in, And began to devour my spleen!
My backache is from this invader, That grinds on my spine like a saw. And all that remains of this twin inside me Is a mouthful of teeth and a jaw.
I feel an attack as it gnaws on my back, When I lay on my back, that’s when The teeth start to bite, In the middle of night, I wake up in pain yet again.
The doc called it Lillian, my sister inside, I screamed out in pain when she gnawed on my side. There’s nothing to do! There’s no way to sleep! The doc says that Lillian is one in a billion And I can’t live without her, She makes my heart beat!
So it’s off now to bed, the worst place I dread. I’ll do anything to fall fast asleep. But I won’t be surprised when I’m closing my eyes, That it’s she who starts grinding her teeth!
...Space is limited, so come see the rest of this story here:
"There once was a really old man, And out of Viagra he ran. Though his date did undress, And he tried to impress, He sighed, 'I don't think that I can!' "
You sent me this years ago! And upon reading it again, I find it NOT so funny! As this happened not long ago, lol!
Fat Daddy's Sound Shack (FDSS) is now open in Denison at Joshua's Crossing (The Crossing) 7201 FM 691, Denison, TX 75020. This is exciting for FDSS. The Sherman/Denison area needs a real venue not shows at a VFW hall or The Salvation Army's Boy's Club. The area needs shows on a regular basis. Not only will FDSS have great local shows. FDSS will also be bringing National Tours. So far we have "The Wonder Years" for Oct 3 and Death Before Dishonor for Oct 17. FDSS has other Tours in the works, not ready for public announcements. We have National Tours so local bands have the chance to play the National Tours and network with the National Bands, and so the fans can see great talent. FDSS does not keep the concert calendar on our MySpace. FDSS posts the concert calendar on our website, http://www.fatdaddyssoundshack.com FDSS is also hosting a Battle of the Bands. M&A Law Firm is the sponsor, the prizes are $750 cash for first place and $350 for second place. For band sign up and more information visit http://www.dallasarealaw.com/battle Fat Daddy's Sound Shack (FDSS) looks forward to supporting the Texoma Area's music scene for a long time.
