Okay, I'll bite.
1. I'm Dave, age 46.
2. I've been smoking cigars in earnest again for about 4 years after about a 10 year break.
3. I live in the southernmost city in Georgia: Jacksonville, FL. I wound up here because NAS Cecil Field was my Dad's last duty station in the USN. My wife, Diana, and our son, Hunter live in the same house I grew up in. Dad made us an offer we couldn't refuse when he and Mom moved to Graceville, FL in 1994.
4. I'm a gubmint contract worker in the employ of Enterprise Information Services (EIS). The arm I work for handles the digital imaging of documents for the Federal Department of Labor (FECA/Office of Workmen's Compensation Program). I've been there since 2000. My wife Diana works for EIS as well as a contractor doing a similar job for the Department of Energy, having been there since 2008. Ironically, we met when we were both working for a local retail outfit in 1990.
5-6. I have a son, Ben (age 26), from a previous marriage. Our son Hunter is 20. I'm a semi-professional musician, playing mostly keyboards these days and sometimes double on bass. I played brass instruments in school, winding up playing tuba in high school and during my brief collegiate career. Up until they rebuilt the old Gator Bowl upon the arrival of the Jaguars and tore down the old Coliseum in 2003. I could honestly state that I had played every major venue in Jacksonville. The busiest I've ever been musically was when I was with a Jimmy Buffet-esque Trop-Rock/Oldies band called Rip Tide from 2004-2009 with an old high school friend. We averaged 120 gigs a year.
Both of my sons are musicians. Ben, a slamming blues-oriented guitarist, was on Letterman at the age of 12, has 3 or 4 indie cds out, and over the years has had sponsorship deals with Brian Moore guitars, G&L, Rivera amps, with the last being with Laguna/Guitar Center. In 2000, I spent several days in a studio with Ben and an awesome drummer named Tony Royster, Jr. Ben and Tony were working for Nickelodeon at the time in a band under the direction of Paul Shaffer of SNL/Letterman fame.
Hunter plays whatever he lays his hands on (other than keys) and does it very well. When he was 12, he was arranging the horn parts for my Funk/Soul/blues review band, Soul Brigade. Then, playing guitar, he formed a couple of metal bands that saw some local success, before quitting school the first part of his senior year to go on the road as his big brother's bassist. for close to two years. He finally got his diploma, works part-time in a local studio and plays lead guitar and bass with our band, MuddSkipper. He's going to take a couple of courses at the local JuCo this fall.
My beloved Diana and I met in February of 1990, and promptly fell in love. I moved in with her in July or August, 1990. I can honestly say I'd be dead by now if it weren't for her.
We have three great dogs (Lab mixes): T-Bone (the Dad, and my "John Coffee"), and his two offspring, Missy Sue Louise Francine What With The Little Head And The Long Legs, and d'Artagnan. d'Art is blind from birth.
7. I found Cigar Geeks just googling cigar stuff. Honestly, it was Bob Cordell, Rich Fry (lowpro75) and Les Chamness (Hot Stuff x) that convinced me to stick around. The first two because of their wit and general A-holishness, and the latter because he sent me my first bomb shortly after I joined.
8. Gitfiddl was the first username I ever had when I hit the internet. BellSouth only allowed 8 characters back then. My Mammaw used to call my bass guitar a "gitfiddle", so I just dropped the "e" to make it fit.
9. My avatar is the product of a long-running joke around here.
10. I think I covered most everything...
And here's me and Diana:
