My real name is Brian Patterson. I am 35 years old and reside in North Mississippi in a suburb of Memphis, Tennessee. I am divorced, but have a beautiful and wonderful fiancée, Stacey (age not disclosed out of respect). I have three children, two of my own and one step-son. My oldest is my daughter Morgan, age 16. The middle child is my step-son Zach (attackofthehobo), age 12. The youngest is my son Myles (messedupmonkey), age 11. I currently own and operate two businesses in the Home Improvement industry. The first is a retail business that sells and installs maintenance-free products on residential and commercial properties. The second is a manufacturing business, in which I make and sell some of the products we install to my distributor in their stores around the country. Needless to say, I stay pretty busy.



I have played Xbox games with my boys for some time, and of course, they always kicked my ass. What really brought it full circle was a purchase of the new 360. Then they wanted to play online and I joined them. Soon, kenpo had me playing with him and other clan members. Glory was gracious enough to send me a clan-invite, and the rest is history. Go Dragoons….



Other than that, my hobbies include Halo online, of course, fishing, and I am a big fan of music and music festivals. I have served on the Board of Directors for The Blues Foundation (they do the Grammy’s for blues musicians) for six years and during my term, I toured from coast-to-coast going to music festivals and had “all-access” passes so I could go back stage and meet the artists. It has been one of the highlights in my life. I think my favorite was the “Telluride Blues and Brews Festival” in Telluride, Colorado. I would highly recommend it, hence the name “Brews” in the title. Now I have friends all over that I visit when I can to frequent their festivals (knowing the festival owner is a big bonus).

So I must ask ...have you ever seen bigfoot in them there hills?

No shapeshifters yet, but with those talents, they may never be seen...
