I am still a child of the late American 60's that continued the dream of a music and artistic filled life in spite of warnings by the fearful and the followers of tradition. My major influences range from Aristotle and Davinci to Edmund Burke, Michelle Malkin and Alton Brown. I wish especially to thank Basil Hayden for some very fine and eventful moments in my life. A beautiful life for many years in Laguna Beach, California with travels to most of Europe and many assorted island paradises over the planet earth have also been very beneficial. I have a B.A. degree in Political Science with minors in philosophy and world history all attained about the time of the 1968 Chicago riots at the Democratic National convention. As the government was trying to teach me to be conventional there were some very non coventional teaching methods being used in Chicago that year. In any event, " there are some here among us who feel life is but a joke" so make the best of it while you can. Smile have fun and be happy. To live a life otherwise pretty much borders on being a moron and besides no one really likes whiners anyway. Best wishes...d.b.

B.A degree, captain of the football team, played one time on stage with Eric Clapton a long time ago and have a killer recipe for sausage and scrambled eggs.

I recently bought a really beautiful Alvarez guitar that sounds good and looks good on stage. If you want to get a copy of my book I will sign it and send it to you via the U.S. Postal service. Send me an e-mail saying you want a copy and I will reply telling you where to send the check. $18.00 should cover the book and shipping here in America. If you live in another country shipping will probably be a bit more. Thanks...d.b.
