All About Rongway
I began my life as a baby. I think that may have been the last time I did anything the way anyone else did.
From then on, I always felt like I had to be different, (just like everyone else)! When my brothers fixed up cars and motorcycles, I played music and practiced magic. When all the guys had long hair, mine was pretty much short. Now try and tell me to cut my hair, and the only way THAT would happen is if you were my Mom, and retiring! (Again)?
I ALWAYS felt like I was just a little off center, out of the mainstream. I guess a lot of people feel like that, (especially when you're in your teens).
But now, at almost 42, I got it figured out: I AM EXACTLY WHO I AM. period. Don't ask me to "fit in", 'cause I don't want to be like you! As Frank Sinatra sang "I gotta be me...", as Charlie Daniels sang, "If you don't like the way I'm livin', you just leave this long-haired, country boy alone"! As Jimmy Buffet says, "Yes, I am a pirate, two-hundred years too late". And as my best friend Char and I always say, "Oh-blah-dee".
So this is me in a nutshell: I'm a 42 year old single all-american male. I drive a 1986 Ford F-150 with a cap on back, own a small home out in the boondocks. I'm a professional stripper, er, "furniture-refinisher", who spent 10 years in the U S Navy as an electronics technician, then 8 years in Florida working as a computer repair tech. I love long hair on both my women and myself; and music, (any will do except gang-banging punk rap). I happen to prefer country, 'cause I think it reflects the good life, at least MY idea of it!
I'm old fashioned, yet permissive, a right wing democrat, or a left wing republican, but NOT a moderate because I can be VERY opinionated! Just ask my family!
Humor, ah humor! I LOVE IT!!! There is nothing better to make you forget about the days troubles. Make mine inane, not insane! Robin Williams is a god!
I'm also an ex-drinker, also known as an alcoholic. After being stupid for about 20 years, I finally quit about 4 years ago.(Cigarettes are next; really, I mean it. Trust me...).
So that's what I am. As for WHO I am, the only way to figure that out is to get to know me; and THAT can be a tough job; so if you meet me - be persistant!
