Would you buy a used bull from this man?

Jan's Bio

My FREE RIDE started in Ottawa, 1961.  In Kindergarten all I wanted to do was RIDE MY SEE SAW.  By grade 7 I was already LAZY, playing French horn badly in the school band and paying more attention to the music teacher's cleavage than to the notes at hand.  However, from an early age I developed a love for ROCK 'N' ROLL, and would brave CROSS TOWN TRAFFIC to see the latest BLOCKHEADS show.  All I could do those years was IMAGINE how good it was going to feel when SCHOOL'S OUT.  In grade 12 I moved INTO THE WILD and followed my family to VICTORIA.  In 1990 I married my wife WHO promised to GIMME SHELTER on Denman Island.  My first few years on Denman I felt like an INTRUDER but I am no longer a MYSTERY MAN.  This island is a great place to TEACH YOUR CHILDREN WELL.   Today I say to myself HERE COMES THE IMAGE when doing my photography and pay the bills working on the CRIPPLE CREEK FERRY.  I used to just want to ROCK AND ROLL ALL NIGHT AND PARTY EVERY DAY, but I've found CONTENTMENT in my HOME BY THE SEA.
