It seems funny talking about myself, I'm nobody important. Just your everyday joe.

My name is Tony and I grew up in a small town in N.E. Oklahoma. I haven't moved very far or for very long at a time, as a matter of fact I still live in the very town I grew up in. I can't find anywhere else that I like any better than where I am.

I've been a diabetic since the age of 10, starting off taking shots and using tes-tape to check my sugar levels. Thirty-five years later,things have changed for the better, and gotten worse also. I was using an insulin pump to control my sugar until a few weeks ago. Now I'm back where I started, taking injections and watching my diet a little closer than I have had to for the last several years. I developed eye problems, complications from diabetes, in the late 80's and have been legally blind in that eye since 92.

Some of my hobbies include: Amatuer Radio, collecting (and using) straight razors, shaving mugs & brushes, photography and genealogy.

I also enjoy watching movies and listening to music. I favor old movies, but do watch a few new ones on occasion. My favorite actors are: Humphrey Bogart, Spencer Tracy, James Cagney, Edward G. Robinson, Lionel Barrymore, William Powell,Myrna Loy, Randolph Scott and John Wayne.

Musically speaking I tend to enjoy many differant types of music, from Big Band to Christian Rock. My favorite musicians/groups are: Glenn Miller, Count Basie, Louis Armstrong, Charlie Daniels, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys, The Sons of the Pioneers, Petra, DeGarmo & Key,and Whitecross to name just a few.
