Lumpy Nuggets
Rick "Lumpy" Vandeven is a lifelong resident of Scott County, Missouri. He is living the American dream of marriage, children, and a 30-year fixed rate mortgage despite the absurd obstacles thrown at him by inept government entities at every conceivable level.
In his meager spare time, Lumpy plays drums for the politically charged punk band - Richard's Nixon. He is also dedicated to crafting the perfect homebrewed beer, and enjoys voting and tasting exotic cheeses.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!...
