When I mention I have a brother most people don’t believe me because I so rarely talk about him, and I have perfectly logical reason for that: he’s a douche. I hate to be a negative Nancy but I really don’t have too much love for my brother, at one point in time I did now. When I was growing my brother and his wife were my favorite people in the whole wide world! I worshiped the ground he walked, he was my hero, and Julie ( his wife) was the coolest person ever. They pretty much raised me, and even for a year I lived with them, but as I got older I just realized how they really were.

Jeff being the oldest of the siblings and the only boy has a lot going for him, actually not really, my Dad is closer to the girls, Jeff is actually the most selfish person I know when it comes to family and I think a lot of that has to do with his wife. The only time they come over to visit ( which they literally live less that an mile away from our house) is to drop off their annoying, spoiled little girl so we can baby sit her. But lets take a step back just so I can explain some thing about Jeff, with out Jeff I would not like music I give him full credit for that. When I was with him we always listened to music, anything from KISS to Def Leppard, to even Stone Temple Pilots, instead of being exposed to the music of my Generation like Brittney Spears or N’ Sync I listened to all the classics and knew everything about the bands. I knew which Van Halen songs were Roth and what ones were Sammy, and I knew all the lyrics and meanings to most KISS songs. My first concert was with him when I was in the 2nd grade to see KISS and Ted Nudgent, and it was awesome! I saw boobs, fireworks, and the hottest band in the world: KISS! I actually got made fun of a lot in my younger years for the music I listened too, but now it’s cool to wear “vintage bands” t-shirts, where is the justice in that?

So Jeff is like my guru to music, but something happened when I was growing up I like most pre-teens and young teens I went through that crippling teen angst and during that time my eyes opened to the world and especially to my brother and his wife. They went from being the people who could do no wrong to the people who did everything wrong. I saw how compulsive they were with everything, and how moody and up tight Julie was about every little thing, and most of all I saw this big streak of utter assholeness to them, one in which I was blind to at a young age.

Things that make my brother an ass/douche:

- His obsesses with everything Disney, they literally watch nothing but Disney, and wont even watch Dreamworks or anything else.
-As mentioned before my Dad will do anything for any one, but when my Dad needs the help from his ONLY son, Jeff is too busy doing this and that to help my 61 year old Dad. ( My Dad has even hurt his back on two occasions helping Jeff move beds)
-He matches his clothes with his wife and daughter.
- He is literally obsessed with KISS, in his eyes they can do no wrong, he is even going to 3 KISS concerts in one weekend, Jeff does not buy cheap tickets, ONLY THE BEST FOR THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD.
-He always expects me to watch his kid without asking and with out pay( on Valentines Day one year when I was still Walter he expected me to watch her even though I already had plans and when I told him that he got pissed at me)
- He likes Glen Beck


He is overall just not a considerate person, and a very smug person.

Now some stories from his childhood:

When my brother was a teenager he bought the record Look What the Cat Drug in by Poison, and showed my dad the record, on the record all the members of Poison had dressed themselves up as woman. And my dad said, “ WOah look at all those hot girls!”

Ever since KISS came out my brother has been obsessed with them and even spray painted on my Dad’s newly built wooden fence the band’s logo, to which my dad told him to sand it off or he was gonna beat him.

The first time he took his now wife out on a date he had a Aerosmith tape in his car, and she picked up and said, “ You like Aerosmith?” and obviously he replied, “ Yes they are one of my favorite bands.” The rest of the night they talked about music and got married a couple years later, it was love at first Aerosmith.

When Jeff turned five the first thing he said, “ NOW THAT I’M FIVE I CAN RUN FASTER!,” The proceeded to run around the yard…at the same speed of four.

And that’s it on Jeff there’s no quotes from him because he’s an idiot =P


PS: I don’t have any old photos of him because all the old photos are from my sisters, and Jeff and his Wife hate my sister Amy, so Amy doesn’t have any of his photos.
