I was tagged by the beautiful and talented @melissalalucy. I’m known by my friends as the most boring man in America, but here goes:
1. I’m a high school dropout. The usual reasons: drugs, sex and rock and roll (but mostly sex!).
2. I have a Masters Degree in Human Resource Management.
3. A couple years ago my wife and I were the subject of a short video by the local cable access channel. They thought it was interesting that I attended the 1965 concert by The Beatles in my hometown and that led to my wife and I getting together 20 years later. It was kind of sappy but funny and won a bunch of regional awards. My 15 minutes.
4. When I was a kid, we had a big German Shepard named Bruno. Bruno taught himself to ring the doorbell when he wanted to come in from outside; the smartest damn dog I’ve ever known. He was also a terrific security when Dad was gone for work, which was quite often. No, it doesn’t snow in Minnesota in July, that is the date was when the film was developed.
(Bruno came from a champion GSD breeder on a farm near our house. You can’t tell here, but he was born with a slightly shorter right front leg. It never bothered him, he had a bit of a limp but he could run like the wind. The breeder was going to put him down as a pup so he wouldn’t lower the value of his litter. My Dad heard about this and offered the breeder $10 for him. The breeder said just get him out of here before anyone sees him and don’t tell anyone where you got him. And, that’s how we got the Best Dog Ever.)
5. After Suicide Girls and motorcycles, hockey is my passion. I’ve been playing once or twice a week since I was kid. Unfortunately, a recent shoulder injury is threatening to put this activity permanently on ice (sorry). Hopefully not, but it may finally be time to hang up those skates.

I love blocking shots, it’s my S&M!
Thanks for reading. If my buddies @skisby @oldun65 @ferkixlll @sdmofo or anyone else wants to play, that would be cool!
