Hi! My REAL name is Ken. I live in Bowie,Md., between Washington and Annapolis. It's a Great location, where I'm at. 2 1/2 hrs from the Atlantic Ocean. Less than 2 hours drive from the Mountains. And within 30 minutes of our Nations Capital and Monuments.

I'm a Furniture Repairman by trade.But I enjoy and have many other interests. I like to Draw, Sculpt, Paint and anything else that has to do with Art! And yes, I enjoy doing some Carpentry work, as well! Some of the activities I enjoy, are Camping, Hiking, Fishing and Hunting. Oh Yeah....I also like riding my Harley-Davidson! Visit the link below to see some pictures.

I've been Married once, and that was for 12 years. I have two wonderful daughters. I get to enjoy their company only half the time, because they live with their mom, the other half.

Jennifer is a really intelligent kid..I owe her a lot of thanks for the help she has given me in setting things up on the 'puter..

Well...It looks like I'll never get a decent picture of Jen to put in here But I do have some updated news about her. Last December (2002) She graduated from Allegheny College. She Was on the Honor Roll, and was the Valedictorian of her class. She went to Ireland for a semester, and continued her studies in school there. She's home for the summer, and plans to return to Ireland for the Fall. Man....I'm so proud! Megan is pretty smart also..Straight "A's", with a Perfect attendance at school.And she's into Sports..She's been the "Star Player" on her Softball Teams for the last ten years..and is also interested in Volley Ball, and doing well.

Thanks to Betti... I Now have my own Karaoke System!I had a difficult time getting started. But now I'm starting to get more requests than I know how to handle. Maybe I need to invest in more equipment and another Library of Music, and go into the business full time! :-)

UPDATE as of 9/16/2002

Sorry folks! It's been so long since I've been in here to edit this page, I almost forgot how to use the HTML Code. And, this is the first time I've been in here since Yahoo and Geocities merged . It took me a long time to log-in.

Well....Megan is finishing up the her Senior year.She's doing very good in Volley Ball as well. Jennifer finally graduated, moved out and is now attending College in Cumberland, Md. She is studying Criminal Law, and made the Dean's List last year. (UPDATE: 1/4/04) Jen is home from Ireland for the Holidays. She's in her 2nd year at school in Galway, Ireland. Megan has been driving for a year.

This is really tough keeping the updates in order. So I'll just let you be confused! *LOL*

You're probably wondering how I came up with my "Handle". Well...I listen to Country Music most of the time. There is a song called "Big D", that tells the story of a man going through a Divorce. In the settlement, his wife got the (house) Palace, and he got the Jeep! Well..I got the JEEP!! WoW!!! Just like the song! *LOL*

"THE CABIN"

Other things I enjoy doing, are..Working on my Cabin that I'm presently building in West Virginia. It's rather modest, but just the right size for a "Hunting Cabin" and Weekend Retreat!

And last but not least...I like to Chat...I'm not a *typist* by any means! I peck at the keys with two fingers..*LOL* So I have a hard time keeping up with too many people..I try to keep it one-on-one!

Ok Folks! Look for the New pics of the Recent Meet at the Jeep's House [Aug.'98 Meet in Bowie].

This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody.

There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it. It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done!

THE GOLDEN RULE

"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"

"Honeycake Recipe" and "A Dream", from a book that my Grandfather wrote.

"HONEYCAKE RECIPE"

One sofa, one cute girl, one strong man, five pounds of love, fifty kisses. Bake in strong man's arms for 30 minutes; cover with love, sprinkle with kisses. Then beat it when Pa gets home.

"A DREAM"

I went out on the roof off my mouth to repair a leak. I used my toenails to fasten the shingles down. Then I took one of my eardrums and went out on the bridge of my nose and played Yankee Doodle Dandee and danced. I slipped and fell down across my shoulder blade, and cut myself very badly. The calves of my legs got scared and ran away. I brought them back and tied them up with my spinal cord. I was hungry, so I took one of my knee caps and used it as a frying pan. I took the corns from my toes and made Corn cakes. I used elbow grease to grease the skillet. I used my eyelids to cover the skillet. I used toe jam on my corn cakes. It was very cool outside, so I used the other knee cap, and pulled it down over my ears to keep them warm. I had to clean my clothes, so I used my ribs for a washboard. I used my windpipe to pipe some water into the house from the well. I took my eyeballs outside and had a nice time playing ball. I got into trouble, and was put in jail. I broke out with the small pox. I had a nightmare, and the bed was buggy..So I hitched the mare to the buggy and drove away.. Now wasn't that a crazy dream?

A Man Skinned Alive

as told by C.B.Sines (Grandfather of I got the Jeep)

Several years ago, probably the year 1840...I used to hear my father and other old people tell about it. A large hunting party started on a hunting trip. In those days there were a lots of wild and large game. Bears, panthers, wolves and sometimes wild Indians. Anyway, as the story has been handed down from generation to generation, there was a young man in the party who thought he would act smart. He thought he knew it all. As they were travelling along, they went through an Indian Territory and this young man saw a couple of Indian children up in a grape vine picking wild grapes. He said "They are Indians and wherever there are nits, there are lice." He aimed his gun and shot them. The older men told him not to do it, that he would get himself into trouble. But he wouldn't listen. The party went on it's way. In a few hours a party of Indians caught up with them. The leader of the party could talk pretty good English. He said "Tell us which one of you killed our children and we won't hurt but only the one that did it". So they pointed at the young man. The young man started to run but the Indians soon caught him. The first thing they did was cut off his tongue so he couldn't talk back to them.They laid him down in the road and started to work on him. The rest of the hunting party had to watch them SKIN THIS MAN ALIVE! Enough Indians worked on this man, starting at his head, taking the skin off him. I am told he did an awful lot of screaming and hollering. In a very few minutes they had all the skin off of him, and they let him up and the man ran about 100 yards and dropped dead. I presume that was very painful. That was a lesson to the hunting party and the rest of the community. The Indians told the party that they'd do them no harm as long as they did not harm any Indians. The little innocent Indian children weren't doing anyone any harm. So I think the young man who killed the children got his just reward.

*The Bible says, "Whatsoever a man soweth that he shall also reap." So be careful what you do, for you will be brought into judgement for your sins, and be sure your sins will find you out.

I would like to thank my friends that have shown so much patience with me, and helped me learn how to do this stuff! Karyl and Howler, from The Beach; Larrys619 and Laughster, from where I work.
