BIO
You know, those random internet pass-around
email are so much fun, I'll just put some of best answers here.
If you ever feel like sending one of those to me, check here first.
Name as it appears on birth certificate: is obscured by
a thumb print. I go by Reid Kerr, though.
Nicknames: Rocket, Kerr
Pierced body parts: Left ear, twice. Still. I cling tightly
to my 80s background.
Most recent movie you have seen in the theater: That wretched
piece of crap Herbie remake with Lindsey Lohan. I took my six-year
old daughter, and the only saving grace of the whole experience
was that she thought it was lame and poorly written, too.
Eye color: Green, the color of children at play in the fields.
Place of birth: Jennings, LA
Favorite food: Hamburgers.
Ever been to Africa? Nope, although they ask me that everytime
I give blood. Have I been to Africa, and have I ever had sex with
a man for drugs or money. I don't know what they're trying to imply.
My uncle once: Paid me to demolish a house.
Never in my life: Have I tasted alcohol.
When I was five: I was on my first move. Second if you're
pro-life.
Previous Jobs: Radio talk show host, play-by-play man, musician,
writer, television sports anchor, comic book shop manahger, commercial
spokesman, ne'er-do-well.
High School was: Not nearly as fun as in the movies.
I once met: Roger Clyne, great American storyteller.
There's this girl I know who: Leans forward and touches
your arm when you make her laugh.
Do you have a website? Several. I own ReidAboutIt.com,
FistfulOfSports.com,
TheBlueArea.com,
QuestionTheAnswers.com,
LivesOfQuietDesperation.com,
and my personal favorite, ClownAutopsy.com.
Not all are filled in, but I like to collect things. You can also
check out my band at TheCaucasianBoys.com.
At a bar: I wind up driving people home.
By noon I'm usually: indoors.
Last night: I finished being part of an 0-10 football season.
Favorite body part: Eyes. Not really, but that's what everybody
else will say.
Next time I go to church: it will be for a wedding.
When I turn my head left: I see the set of slippers my
mom knitted for me when I was 10. This means I'm not only sentimental,
but I had freakishly large feet for a kid.
When I turn my head right: I see my classical guitar, strings
badly in need of change. I hate to change strings no matter how
bad they get, because I like the feeling of drawing inspiration
from the thousands of notes already played.
If I were a character written by Shakespeare: I would know
whether or not he was really just Francis Bacon.
By this time next year (December '05): I will be a published
author.
I have a hard time understanding: Viagra.
If I'd ever go back to school I would: Study English, concentrating
on composition.
You know I like you if: I spend more than 12 seconds on
the phone with you.
Take my advice: Because I don't think the same way you
do.
My ideal breakfast is: Served at 2pm.
A song I love, but do not have is: Stevie Ray's version
of "Little Wing". If I hear it in the car, I will not
leave until it's finished.
If you visit my hometown: You should fire your travel agent.
Random fact: On the last episode of Bonanza filmed, Gary
Busey played a slow character who died. He originally died with
his eyes crossed, but they made him reshoot the scene with his eyes
closed.
If you spend the night at my house: Hold down the handle
in the front bedroom when you flush.
The world could do without: Common-law marriages.
I'd rather lick the belly of a cockroach than: Lick the
asshole of a cockroach. Assuming they have those. What kind of question
is this to ask a friend, anyway?
If I do anything well, it's: Write.
And by the way: Get off of your cell phone and actually
experience what's going on around you. Stop narrating your life's
play-by-play, and look around for a change.
The last time I was drunk: never.
If I were you: I'd blow me.
The best decade to live in is: Going on right now while
we talk about the past.
My graduating class is/was: 1988
The best kind of parties are: Soaked with alcohol.
Ten years ago I: Had no idea what was about to happen.
Ever been toilet papering: Of course. And was shot at doing
so.
Ever love someone so much it makes you cry? Yes, on a daily
basis.
Been in a car accident: Yes. Thus the nickname "Rocket".
Croutons or bacon bits: Both, although that's the only
kind of salad I eat.
Favorite day of the week: Saturday
Favorite restaurant? Gaido's in Galveston.
Favorite Flower? Guns N Roses.
Favorite sport to watch: Football
Favorite drink? Chocolate milkshake
Favorite ice cream? Chocolate
Disney or Warner Brothers? Warner Brothers. They exposed
me to important things like opera and anarchy.

red sauce on them, and the fries are crinkle cut.
What color is your bedroom carpet: I don't know. I never
look down.
How many times did you fail your driver's test? None. Although
I did parallel park about twelve feet away from the curb.

Last person you went to dinner with: 1500 of my close friends
at a basketball game.
Ford or Chevy: No preference. That's a question for NASCARmadillos,
and I ain't one of those.

The Caucasian Boys.
