I claim: 1. A tamping device for tamping asphalt or stone placed on a surface, said device comprising: a motor being coupled to a drive shaft, said motor rotating said drive shaft when said motor is actuated; a sleeve being coupled to said motor, said drive shaft extending through said sleeve; a transmission housing being coupled to said sleeve opposite said motor, said drive shaft extending into said transmission housing; and a foot assembly being rotatably coupled to said transmission housing, wherein an angle of said transmission housing and said sleeve is adjustable with respect to said foot assembly, said foot assembly vibrating when said motor is actuated to tamp the asphalt or the stone and said foot assembly is drawn across the asphalt or the stone. 2. The device according to claim 1, wherein said foot assembly includes a transfer shaft rotatably extending through said transmission housing, said transfer shaft engaging said drive shaft, wherein said drive shaft rotates said transfer shaft. 3. The device according to claim 2, wherein said transfer shaft is positioned orthogonally to said drive shaft. 4. The device according to claim 2, wherein said foot assembly includes a plurality of weights, each of said weights being coupled to said transfer shaft, each of said weights being positioned off center to vibrate said foot assembly when said transfer shaft is rotated, at least some of said weights extending in a different direction from said transfer shaft with respect to each other. 5. The device according to claim 4, wherein said foot assembly includes a tamping foot rotatably receiving said transfer shaft, said tamping foot abutting and vibrating against the asphalt or the stone to tamp the asphalt or the stone when said transfer shaft and said weights are rotated. 6. The device according to claim 1, further comprising a handle being coupled to said sleeve, said handle being graspable to facilitate manipulation of said sleeve, said motor and foot assembly. 7. The device according to claim 1, further comprising a liquid supply assembly being coupled to said sleeve, said liquid supply assembly spraying a liquid on the asphalt around said foot assembly to inhibit said foot assembly from sticking to the asphalt. 8. The device according to claim 7, wherein said liquid supply assembly includes a supply tank being coupled to said sleeve, said supply tank storing the liquid to be sprayed on the asphalt. 9. The device according to claim 8, wherein said liquid supply assembly includes a valve being coupled to said sleeve and in fluid communication with said supply tank, said valve controlling a flow of the fluid from said supply tank when said valve is actuated. 10. The device according to claim 9, wherein said liquid supply assembly includes a sprayer being coupled to said foot assembly and extending around a perimeter of said foot assembly, said sprayer being in fluid communication with said valve, said sprayer spraying the liquid onto the asphalt around said foot assembly when said valve is actuated to allow the liquid to flow from said supply tank. 11. A tamping device for tamping asphalt or stone placed on a surface, said device comprising: a motor being coupled to a drive shaft, said motor rotating said drive shaft when said motor is actuated; a sleeve being coupled to said motor, said drive shaft extending through said sleeve; a transmission housing being coupled to said sleeve opposite said motor, said drive shaft extending into said transmission housing; a foot assembly being rotatably coupled to said transmission housing, wherein in an angle of said transmission housing and said sleeve is adjustable with respect to said foot assembly, said foot assembly comprising; a transfer shaft rotatably extending through said transmission housing, said transfer shaft engaging said drive shaft, wherein said drive shaft rotates said transfer shaft, said transfer shaft being positioned orthogonally to said drive shaft; a plurality of weights, each of said weights being coupled to said transfer shaft, each of said weights being positioned off center to vibrate said foot assembly when said transfer shaft is rotated, at least some of said weights extending in a different direction from said transfer shaft with respect to each other; a tamping foot rotatably receiving said transfer shaft, said tamping foot abutting and vibrating against the asphalt or stone to tamp the asphalt or the stone when said transfer shaft and said weights are rotated; a handle being coupled to said sleeve, said handle being graspable to facilitate manipulation of said sleeve, said motor and foot assembly; a liquid supply assembly being coupled to said sleeve, said liquid supply assembly spraying a liquid on the asphalt around said foot assembly to inhibit said foot assembly from sticking to the asphalt, said liquid supply assembly comprising; a supply tank being coupled to said sleeve, said supply tank storing the liquid to be sprayed on the asphalt; a valve being coupled to said sleeve and in fluid communication with said supply tank, said valve controlling a flow of the fluid from said supply tank when said valve is actuated; and a sprayer being coupled to said foot assembly and extending around a perimeter of said foot assembly, said sprayer being in fluid communication with said valve, said sprayer spraying the liquid onto the asphalt around said foot assembly when said valve is actuated to allow the liquid to flow from said supply tank.
