Wanna buy a great Florida home?
And here's the Virtual Tour page, if you're interested.

"Tarkus" (aka David) was born in Houston, Texas more than a half-century ago; I'm a graduate of The Lovett School in Atlanta and Rice University in Houston; I have one brother (the almost-famous Hollywood Cinematographer Robert Presley ); I have been married and divorced three times (can you say "poor decision making"?); and I have one daughter (Jordan) by my second marriage who is in her College Junior year at Cal.

As you get to know more about me, you'll find that I'm one of those jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none types (well, maybe I'm pretty good at a few things). Some of my life's interests include Music , Golf , Travel , SCUBA Diving , and other assorted oddities .

In the business world, you could loosely call me an insurance agent; more specifically, I've performed both sales and underwriting functions for a Managing General Agency called Alternative Market Specialists (AMS) since our inception in October 1997. I use the past tense because - as of the end of 2001 - I (more or less) became an I.T. department of one and actually do very little actual insurance anymore... which helps explain why you find me on here as often as you do!

Peek-a-boo... I see you! :)
