I've worked for the past dozen plus years at a small software company doing product support, training, etc.  Have lived in a relatively small town most of my life... have moved away and came back a few times at this point.  Have been dating a great girl for the past few years, we met online through a forum that we both frequent, met in person and hit it off.

My favorite pastime is probably cooking.  At the end of a long day of dealing with computer related issues, where you often feel like you're never accomplishing anything because once you tackle one issue two more pop up, standing in the kitchen chopping up vegetables and mixing up mirepoix for a stew is the best way I've found to relax.  Even so, I've managed to stay somewhere south of obese, unlike the rest of my family.

...and hey, since we mentioned photography, that's one of my hobbies as well.

That's why I don't post many pics. And I love the reference to Escher.

I love that 2nd sunset picture, RD.

Good evening all,

My name is Jamey I'm 24 originally from NJ now living in FL. I can't see my history being as rich as most of y'all but we all have a story to tell  . I've been working since I can remember helping my father around his pool business, dock boy at a marina, cashier (couponsssss Noooo!) never again haha, dishwasher, a furniture store, restaurant, state job on parkway, post office on campus at college and now bartending. Needless to say I'm proud to say I'm not lazy and love working with my hands as most if not all of us do on here. I'm currently in the process of becoming a "Coastie" and couldn't be happier/more anxious to begin. My main hobby besides working on Savvy is music. I play the drums and have been for about 12 years. I've been in several no name bands but I have had the honor of playing with bigger acts of similar genres. It's amazing how much of an influence my father has been on my life. I play music because I saw him do it for so long as a kid and he's still at it today. I ride because I grew up riding with him. I remember Daytona and bike shows as a child and so the feeling I get when I ride is pure joy   I'm happy to be part of this online community and have learned so much from so many of you already! My 96' Savvy is my second bike after an 84 Shadow vt700 and I must say this machine is FUN. Anyway.....Thanks for reading my rant.

We're all here if you ever want to chat Perry! Keep on ridin' !
