Today:
Neal Andrew Taflinger came into this world one April day in 1979 and promptly fell asleep for 72 hours. He has been a smart ass since he learned to talk and drove the ladies wild with his mildly condescending charm and gutter humor. He spent 11 years in private school, one and a half at North Central, dropped out, finished in night school, enrolled at IVY Tech, withdrew from IVY Tech, attended and finished massage therapy school, spent three semesters at IUPUI before transferring to IU Bloomington, where he was granted a degree in Telecommunications. He has traveled much of the western world, played in and recorded with several bands, competed as an amateur boxer, read a lot of books, accrued a lot of debt and broken a few hearts along the way. He is now lucky enough to be engaged to the bestest girl in the whole wide world and is looking forward to a life of dogs, babies, and vegetable gardens.
