There are so many! Well, I enjoy several things as pasttimes: paintball; working on old cars (I know just enough to be dangerous); documenting my life with photos (minus me in the pictures a lot of the time...haha); teaching and performing instrumental music; autographs and photos of (and with) famous people; I have a small John Philip Sousa (The March King) collection; antique stuff......
Music
I really do enjoy music from most all styles and genres....BUT, my absolute favorite would have to be Big Band Swing, and some of the old "crooners." One of my favorite male voices is Dean Martin, and one of my favorite female voices is Sandi Patti.
Movies
Sixth Sense is awesome.......It's A Wonderful Life is my all-time favorite classic.......The Ghost And Mr. Chicken with Don Knotts is hilarious.......Dead Poets Society is one of Robin Williams' best films, in my opinion.......you gotta love Jake and Elwood as The Blues Brothers!!
Television
My all-time favorite series is the original Night Stalker with Darrin McGavin (1974-75). Currently I really like Supernatural, Boston Legal (with William Shatner....that show is awesome!), and M*A*S*H is at the very top of the list. Other TV shows I like are Yes, Dear.....King of the Hill.....
Books
My Years Backstairs At The White House. Haunted Odyssey (I and II). The Hardy Boys books were awesome when I was in 5th grade!!
Heroes
My parents....what hard-working, honest, loving people they are.

About me: Well.....I guess I'll start from the beginning......I was born and raised in Festus, Missouri....one of the greatest towns and schools in America. I graduated from Festus HS in 1986 and proceeded to continue my education at Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau. I graduated from there 4 years later with a dual Bachelors degree in Music Education (Instrumental and Vocal). I taught 3 years at Oran, Missouri, and then came to my current school, West County in Leadwood, MO, in the Fall of 1993. I am currently in my 17th year of teaching, the past 14 having been at West County.
