Are You Lost???


Quote of the Week

If You want to Live in Peace and at Ease Do Not Speak All You Know Nor Judge All that You See


Ok..what do I like to do you might ask? Well...I'm constantly listening to music...usually classic rock...especially Pink Floyd. My car is a 2002 silver 4-door Chevy Cavalier (4 cyl 2.2L engine...nothing special). Now in the beautiful city of Visalia (don't breath the air or test the roads due to immigrant morons) You can find a blue white washed 4 bedroom house..but don't try to find me in there, I will be out by the pool...when I'm not blowing money at The Palace of course. If your wondering what I do...you have your choice of things...I work for a financial institution supervising...or rather watching tellers as they do their hard days work (shopping on e-bay or munching on snacks). A few nights of the week I deliver pizza for dominos (good for gas money at least). The rest of my time is usually spent with my daughter, Felicia Amira watching sports...or actually attempting to play them.
