Wrestling, girls, shooting, redheads, surfing, girls, fishing, girls, working, girls. Add some Boone's Farm Country Quencher� and shake like hell.
A government is the most dangerous threat to man�s rights: it holds a legal monopoly on the use of physical force against legally disarmed victims.

Hardheaded, naive, hardworking, and always on the fringe of trouble.
There is no accounting for taste.
Experience is a great thing as long as one survives it.
Generally, there ain't a lot that separates the two however, Barely making it is a whole lot more satisfying than barely not making it.

Get up and care for the livestock, get on the bus, go to school, get off the bus, work till dark. Saturday was working on the family ranch, Sunday was working on the neighbors ranch that would work on Sunday. Any free time I might have I worked the dock at my buddies marina so that I could rent/borrow a boat once in awhile to go fishing on the lake. Nowadays - eat sleep work and [bleep].....The only time I got off and still get, is during hunting season.

Angry, frustrated, but heck, who wasnt. Didnt get much guidance like I should have, but I feel that I turned out ok. Of course did alot of hunting, didnt fish much, chased girls like my friends did, drank beer, etc.

Hunting, fishing, work, friends, sports.
Some great memories with very few regrets, but if I could do it all again I'd put a lot more effort into school/grades and sports as the opportunities for both were short.

Was a jock and got excellent grades until middle of high school, but became disillusioned and bored. Worked just enough at a paper routes, a high-school band, and on farms and ranches to pay for my guitar, gun, girl, pickup and weekend beer and drugs. Quit school after my sophomore year because I wanted to be writer, and high school didn't seem to have any relevance. Got married at 18, which eventually helped focus my life, though we got divorced 10 years later.

You fixed tires but can't figure out a box? Go figure.
Camp is where you make it.

Family, friends, girls, swimming/lifeguarding/work, hunting fishing, girls, girls....
Family was always first but hot tail always called to me. Luckily I had my priorities and those led me down the path I've travelled all these years.
I've got a great family I'm VERY close to and a wonderful, beautiful lady I've been lucky enough to have stick with me for the last 15 years. My friends are the best...and lifelong. My business partner is my best friend and I love him like a brother. I thank God every day for the blessings in my life.
If he called me home tomorrow I'd have no regrets...other than I love life and would continue doing what I do for a million years.
