golfaddict88 · Jul 23, 2004

Hello Jennifer, I guess I could make an honest effort.

mY name is Jay, I live in Columbia SC. I am 25 years old and I work for an engineering company that designs subdivisions and commercial sites. Color would have to be blue. Baptist convert from church of God. I am kinda between churches so I have gotten involved with any activities yet. I noticed that your favorite food is pizza, I could probably say it is my favorite as well but who doesn't like pizza . I guess second favorite would be grilled boneless chicken breast, but it has to be cooked right. Favorite music would have to be classic rock, mainly AC/DC, I know they aren't, in some peoples opinion, aren't what christians need to be listening to but I am into playing the guitar and I think that Angus Young ( lead guitar) is one of the greatest guitarist. By the way I saw AC/DC live in Atlanta in I think 2000, at Philips Arena. I am also into health and fitness but not to the degree that I won't eat what I like occasionaly. Thanksgiving would be my favorite holiday, mainly because my whole family can cook really well. Well thats almost all of me, anything else you or anyone else would like to know, just ask.

I played piano and oboe in grade/high school, studied drums and percussion as an undergraduate, was consumed by analog synthesizers in grad school (I'm building one piece-by-piece at present), and now it's lots of guitar and organ; if I can get my hands on an instrument I'll try and make sound with it!
