Hometown

Waverly, Tennessee 60 mi. w. of Nashville

Places I've been

Traveled almost every backroad in Tennessee, Western Kentucky, and Southeast Missouri. Lived in Waverly, a town of 4500 all my life with exceptions of extended workaway from home. Waverly is still home although I live 12 miles out of town in the country.

More about me

I have always been a "Country Boy", but with a little extra Rebel streak of being Politically INCORRECT, Sometimes Hippie, was against the Viet Nam War when it was not the popular opinion in these parts. Consider myself Spiritual but by far Non-Religous. Follow a mixture of Native American, Naturalism, and Celtic or Wiccan. From this earth I came and to it I will return, taking what I arrived with, nothing. Only that which I do while here matters, Good or Bad. I believe we make our own destinies and detest people who constantly find someone else to blame for their ill fortunes. Look in the mirror for someone to blame. I am a Southern Gentleman of the Old School and lately have become more voiceful about issues that concern me. Integrity is my most important virtue. I'm predominantly Scot-Irish with English, Black Dutch, Native American mixed in. Hard headed, obstinate, determined, loyal, passionate, caring, loving, and a True Scorpio. Take me as I am or leave me alone, but don't lie to me or cross me. I'll not be wronged. I rarely apologize nor need to as I rarely regret anything I have said or done. I burn a lot of Bridges and do not look back. My greatest accomplishments in life have been my two sons. One of which I lost in an auto accident on June 12, 2004 at age 29 years, 2 weeks, 2 days. He was my friend. I miss him. I enjoy learning constantly, ever restless for knowledge from a variety of sources. I have since being disabled become a professional Genealogist, always an amateur one.   "Wakan Tankan Nici Un" Tommy
