OK, thi...

OK, this is my first official entry into live journal that is somewhat a record of my thoughts. Who am I and what do I do? Well dear reader I cannot give all clues away at the beginning. After all why would you tune in later? To start, yes the rumors are true, I am in the military. Though upon your getting to know me you will wonder why. To answer this I don't even know anymore. The answer will be lost forever to the ages of time. I dislike what I do, which by the way sets me on stage in Detroit. However, this motor city is a far cry from the land of my youth. I grew up in the Rocky Mountains. I am more at home in the woods of the Wasatch Range than the sprawl of the suburbs. I do take one small joy. My current home sits on the shores of Lake Sinclair, which I like to take long walks along. I have spent a good deal of my life traveling now. I have been all over Europe, from the lights of Paris to the ruins of Serbia. I read a good deal and enjoy it. From Shakespeare's Henry V to Douglas Adams Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy I take a great many perspectives on life. I am an optimist, I always believe that the glass should hold water. I also think that the good guys always win, no matter how long it takes. I enjoy politics and history. I firmly believe that we can learn by laughing at others mistakes. I think Locke had a lot of good ideas though Libertarians are wrong. I like the idea of the Green Party though still count myself a Democrat. One of my great heroes is Thomas Jefferson. I think that every American should learn more about the founders, but his view reached past Monticello:"The ground of liberty is to be gained by inches, that we must be contented to secure what we can get from time to time, and eternally press forward for what is yet to get. It takes time to persuade me to do even what is for their own good."- Thomas Jefferson in a letter to Charles Clay, January 27, 1790.I want to thank Ms. Orlando. She is one crazy chick who I have come to admire greatly. She also is responsible for bringing my world to you through this medium. The proof of quintessence rests in her, but not her alone. I have a great many friends from Virginia, Colorado, Maine, and now Michigan that I ad the commentary to my existence. This is the start. My life and perhaps past will unfold with these keys strokes and be forever noted in your history as the reader.
