Well lets see. I was born in 1981. I share my birthday with the great Martin Luther King Jr. I have lived in Cincinnati my whole life and I'm not a Bengals fan and never have been, but I do like the Reds. I went to college at Miami University (Oxford, Ohio) where I earned two degrees and also graduated Cum Laude and also joined the fraternity Sigma Phi Epsilon. I am a pretty easy person to get along with and have a tight group of friends who I've been friends with since junior high school. I am an only child to two of the greatest parents on the earth. My parents are both retired and are enjoying their retirement to the fullest. As far as hobbies go, i like to go fishing and boating. My parents have a lake house in TN on Norris Lake. I try to go down there as much as possible to get my fill of large mouth bass and relaxing on the water. My dad is number one fishing partner and enjoy fishing with him as much as possible. He is a big influence in my life and has taught me a lot.

One thing that my friends all find strange about me is that I do not have television where i live. When i moved out on my from my parents house years ago i decided to not get cable or satellite television. I don't even have a TV in my house to watch even standard local television. I have never really been big on tv and most of the shows that are on now a days are garbage any way although i do like Duck Dynasty, Swamp People, and America's got Talent. I don't watch enough tv to find it worth paying for monthly cable tv service, so anything i watch i do through hulu or netflix or on tv networks web pages.

Though my name is Josh most of my close friends that have known call me JT. In my close group of friends we all have nicknames and have two JT and J Teezy or Teezy for shorty. J Teezy was a nickname I picked up in college which i guess came from my roommates who started calling me that due to the rapper Lil Wayne (aka Lil Weezy). I think they heard me rapping along to one of his songs and it just came from that. Some of my college buddies adapted the nickname further and started calling me Teez Monkey. The funny thing is that my best friend some how acquired the nickname Weezy (his name is Dan so i don't know how it came about) so now we are known as Teezy and Weezy.

Since i don't have television i listen to alot of music. I listen to pretty much everything except country music. My favorite is probably 80's music and old school rap music (snoop dog, biggie, 2pac, the stuff from the 90's). I'm a big fan of Jimmy Buffet. My friend's and i go every year to his concert in Cincinnati and have been for probably the past 10 years. Last year i became famous when i was interviewed by Art Mann and put on his show Art Man presents. Needless to say they cut about half of my interview out. Let's just say we had been tailgating since about 11 am and he probably interviewed me around 4pm. So i'll let you figure out why you think half of the interview was cut out. (For those of you who don't know, Jimmy Buffet got his start in Cincinnati and when he comes here it's one of the biggest tailgating outings around. It is the only concert held here that they allow people to tailgate for. It's definitely a sight to see.)

One last thing, for all you single ladies out there, yes I am single.

Lol! Great post!

Fishing is so relaxing. I was just asking my hubs when we'll be getting our licenses.

Nice to learn a bit about you .

[J Teezy]

yeah i love fishing. My dad is a big fisherman and he got me started when i was young J Teezy. Put me on the boat with fishing pole and some cold beer and i'm happy

[Heatheranne]

Ha ha! Sounds like a great day!

There's a place here about 40 minutes from where we live called Bulls Dam. It's a huge inlet off of the lake here. It's very quaint. Not too many people, has a long grass strip up the middle to set out on, and a small ramp to set your boat in.

I took my daughter there about 2 weeks ago just to listen to the different frog calls because there are so many there ...bullfrogs, leopards, greens, etc., everywhere. All you here in the breeze and the frogs. It's a great place to fish .

[J Teezy]

don't let your imagination fool you!!! I'm pretty easy to get along with. I'll talk to pretty much anyone until they give me a reason not to talk to them anymore.
