i used to be huge fan of live music.
i have seen the grateful dead about 50 times in 10 states.
i have seen the allman bros. about 35 times in 4 states.
i have seen santanna about 20 times in 2 states.
i have seen government mule about 15 times in 2 states.
my best guess is i have seen about 350 concerts since 1983.

this figure does not count bar bands i see regularly.

if you ever get a chance to see a concert at red rocks, do it! its amazing.

I was a professional shit shoveler once upon a time. I worked for the Oakland County Drain Commission for a summer, and spent many a hot summer day underground in the overflow basin for the 12 Town Drain while we ran a cleaning cycle that pushed all of the debris down to the big pumps. We scooped out the debris and loaded it into a dump truck.

I was living at home at the time, my mom used to make me strip down to my skivvies before coming in the house because I often had an odor that surrounded me.

i was the septic guy for about 13 years, pumped and installed systems. most days i was nekid before i came in the house at the end of the day.
the worst was pumping grease traps and the grand haven fish cleaning station in the summer.

I have been to all 50 states, most of them multiple times, and 46 of them last year. I've also been to over a dozen countries. My children had been in 43 states by the time they were 5 and 8.

I have had many unique jobs, including traveling vodka salesman and underwater airplane mechanic.

I have been called too loud by my deaf girlfriend.

I speak profanity, broken english, and slang fluently.

I once had a pet squirrel.

I long hauled the 2000 and 2001 Hot Rod Magazine Power Tours and ended up in the magazine once and on TV a couple times.

I once partied with the Orlando magic cheerleaders, and blew out the only bathroom in the house with a days of fast food and drinking mass amounts of the cheapest beer possible Shit. Luckily I made it out of the bathroom with no one knowing it was me that dropped an A-bomb in the shitter.

I punched my sleeping cat in the face when I was four. My dad watched me do it, and apparently I couldn't have hit it harder. And when it woke up it blinked about 3000x in two seconds.

I had no idea why the cat hated me, because I don't remember doing it. My dad told me when I was about 12, after he had to introduce patches to the business end of the shotgun.

Ive been taking care of my 80 (will be 81 this month) grandpa and his 13 yr old Dashound that is diabetic for about 3 yrs now. The dog needs shots twice a day in the neck, is blind, and fat but has lost some the last few years. My grandpa doesn't drive and hasn't for 3 yrs now so I do all the running around and take him to all the places he needs to go. Even days he pisses me off, I still cant be mad that long but I swear he does things just to piss me off every once and awhile for his own entertainment. Its true once you hit a certain age you start to act like a kid again. :sonicjay:
