A special thanks to Rhett Tillery for putting together a great bike. The ride started a little north of Ft. Worth, Texas Sunday October 26, 2008 at 1:06PM. Mr. Frank Tillery and I began the trip on the trail that runs along the banks of the Trinity River.
That first day we rode to Cleburne, Texas where we checked into a motel and washed off the dirt. We covered 55 miles that first day. The next morning we biked across town to visit Wal-Mart where I stocked up on inner tubes. I only had two flats during the trip but it was comforting to know I had spares. The bike was rock solid and gave me no trouble.
Frank headed north Monday morning into a strong head wind. I headed south and reached Hillsboro late in the afternoon. The ride ended in Georgetown, Texas on Thursday 7:00PM Oct. 30, 2008. I estimate I covered around 200 - 225 miles. | | Music | Mostly classical. Songs such as Leo Delibes: Flower Duet, neo-classical too. James Horner: Braveheart - For The Love Of A Princess, Ludovico Einaudi: Giorni Dispari. Some classic rock, current rock, a little c&w, but please NO RAP!

| | Movies | It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad, World, True Grit, The Cowboys, Cowboy, Planet Of The Apes (orig), My Side Of The Mountain (Book was so much better), TBL, O Brother, Where Art Thou?, Rear Window, The World According To Garp, Forrest Gump, Castaway, A fellow named Brian Morgan made a film and was kind enough to let me be a part of the movie!
Other movies I've been lucky enough to work as an extra in include: The Rookie with Dennis Quade and "The Ringer" with Johnny Knoxville. I also do extra work on Friday Night Lights - The TV series for three years now. | | Television | It went into a dumpster years ago. But I love to watch The History Channel or the Discovery Channel shows. Mythbusters, oh yeah. Plus Dirty Jobs is mucho funny. | | Books | I've been a big reader all my life. I've even written a bit myself. "Julia's Touch" is currently in print in paperback titled "Darker Masques". The story was first printed in Masques IV, a hardcover. They also have a hardcover edition of M-IV with the signatures of all the writers and it's slipcovered. If you care to take the time
