About Me
- Name: K-nine
- Location: A Small Town, North Carolina
A divorced northeastern North Carolina farmboy back in Carolina via Washington DC, a small Carribean island and Texas. Mostly self-educated I am the product of public schools, a few trips to college, the school of life (& hard knocks), a WWII veteran father who could build anything, and a Sunday School teacher mother who loved to read anything she could lay her hands on. As the youngest of five I am no stranger to having to defend my actions (not to mention myself).

Those that do look it up, will at some point find out the true meaning it has. Either by witnessing from the sidelines. Or by being the recipient of ...well.......you would know.
