Lets get started!

Ok, here is my initial post...and I will tell a little about myself. I am just a computer guy with a wife and two kids. But I have a crazy life. I seem to be pulled in so man directions sometime I feel like stretcharmstrong (you remember those?).
I enjoy building things, playing and recording music and grilling out.... among other things. Over the last year I have built two guitar amps and am currently working on number three...an 18watt marshall clone (Lite IIb version). Unlike most folks who says "I want to build that"...I didn't buy a kit. I got a schematic, layout and a material list and started ordering parts. I plan to calendar my exploits here...along with other crazyness.
I also am a USA Swim Stroke and Turn judge (you know the guy at the end of the pool at a swim meet)...so the kids sometimes love me, sometimes hate me....I tell them just to get back in the pool and swim...my son included.
I have a home studio and love music. My wife and I play music in the Grace Church of Bainbridge praise band every Sunday. (why do you think I got started building amps...)
My kids love music too...so maybe oneday we will all sing together...but don't expect us to all dress up the same in polyester suites and dresses like some southern gospel family groups did in the 1970s and 80's (man that was ugly!).
Myother website is http://www.kirkwhitaker.com which i need to update more frequently. When I will post over there and link up here so you can hear. I currenly have about 10 songs written to record...just no time to do it...maybe i need to take a week off and work on it? I would, but have no time.
More later....
