It was a cold and rainy night...wait a minute, that was another story.

Flats Dude came about when I attended a party of a bunch of flyfishing buddies wearing my famous watermelon colored flats shirt. One of my buddies stood up, put his sunglasses on (it was night time) and says, "Hey, it's the Flats Dude!" I guess it kinda stuck.
In as far as my signature, another friend of mine emailed that saying to me and said it sounded like me...I kinda liked it so I stole it!!

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body. But rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and exclaiming, "Wow, what a ride!"
