I love golf, football, basketball, fast cars, good BBQ, good music and, most of all, I love spending every afternoon with you. I grew up when the Memphis Sound, Motown Sound, and what we refer to now as Southern Soul or Blues. A lot of great music came out of that era. I was born and raised in Chattanooga TN./Calhoun Ga.
