When Jessica and I were dating we were rather defensive around each others ex’s with the exception of two people: Jeremy Telling and Glory ‘Bucky’ Bucknell. Jeremy was the bass player in my band and Bucky was Jess’ best friend for part of our dating time. Once, while I was over at Jessica’s parents’ house in Nevada her ex boyfriend showed up out of the blue to ‘say hi.’ It so happened that I was fixing something that was broken in the house with my “Swiss Army” knife and so I came out to ‘meet’ him and kept the knife out and played with it while he was there.

I’m such a goober, I couldn’t have stabbed an animal if it was attacking me let alone another human being. I just wanted him to get the message that this was my woman and that he best move along and say, “hi,” to someone else. So, what is your favorite (or worst) ‘ex’ story? I’m a faux macho man/knife hunter – are you a killa gangsta, too?
