Hello, my name is Jay.  I am a single father of two teenagers.  My daughter Jenna is a senior at Arkadelphia High School.  She is into art, fashion and music.  My son Dakota is a sophmore at Bismarck High School.  He is into sports, computer technology, and hunting & fishing.  I myself live in Bismarck.  I am a honorably United States Air Force veteran, having served during Desert Shield/Storm in the early 90's.  I worked for an air conditioning company making sure we had a good quality product leaving out the doors.  Recently after 20 years on the job, I lost my job to overseas China.  I am starting a new career and in the process of going to school at Henderson State University to become a teacher.  I am specializing in Middle School Education in Language Arts and Social Studies.  I hope to bring the knowledge and experience of the real world I have learned and add it to the profession of teaching.  I love kids and all the new ideas that can be brought out of each individual that will give me the drive and enjoyment of being a teacher.    I enjoy the outdoors in bicycling, walking, hiking, camping, swimming, skiing, just enjoy nature.   I am into fitness, eating right and feeling good about myself.  I enjoy reading books, currently Non Western literature, learning about what cultures from around the world have to offer, new insights. I enjoy movies such as comedies, romance, sci-fi, action adventure, Horror, not really anything I don't like as long as it is made well.  Currently, my kid’s activities keep me very busy because I like to be there and involved with them as much as possible.  I enjoy music...currently like all genres.  If it is catchy and keeps everyone having a good time I am all for it.  I would like to focus this blog mostly on music particularly 80's music when I was growing up and rocking!!!  Music will always be interesting.  Let's talk music.
