About buffoonery
buffoonery is a serious guitar-head who works only to support his music habits and, secondarily, his family (one wife, three sons, one daughter, one hamster, and ten guitars). He spends a lot of time admiring his Les Paul Custom and 1950 Martin D-28. He is also a military history buff and Tory who does not suffer fools gladly, and that generally includes everyone to the left of Bill Buckley. That should cover most of the population. You have been warned. buffoonery spent four years in a fraternity at Northwestern and was accordingly lucky to get a degree. He also has a JD from Illinois and an MBA from Chicago. That and a couple of bucks will get you a ride on the El. buffoonery's two oldest sons are out of high school and are now on active duty in the United States Army, one who has finished a tour in Afghanistan and is now a medic at Fort Benning. buffoonery's third son is now a cadet (otherwise known as a "Rat") at Virginia Military Institue. Confusion to our enemies! His daughter is projected to be a member of Stanford University's Class of 2021, although she would prefer to attend the University of Illinois, and if she keeps that up she'll find herself at Annapolis training to be a surface warfare officer.
