My wife and kids, Outdoorsy Stuff--hunting, fishing, camping, etc. Boy Scouts, Order of the Arrow, Emergency Medicine, Fire Fighting, Paranormal & Occult, Mythology, ancient history (Native American & European, not long lost X's), UFOs. What is my favorite food when camping?
glitter-graphics.com Learning cool, useless, obscure knowledge that will never amount to anything but makes people say, "Wow, you're really smart." Have you got everything to go camping? Food? Clothing? Sleeping Bag? Did you tell your parent?
I'd like to meet:
It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion,it is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shaking, the shaking becomes a warning, it is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.

Heroes:
Omer P. Carson- my uncle,75th Rangers, KIA Vietnam 12/06/70. A day of infamy.Anyone who protects others against bullies, and oppression. Anyone who helps others and puts the needs of others before the needs of themselves.Men and women who face the brutality of combat in defense and service for our country and our way of life. The next time you critize somone in our armed forces; say a thank you to them as well. They would much rather be with their families but they are fulfilling a vow to protect us. If they were not fighting and dying for you then you would not live in a free county and be allowed to critize them.My brothers and sisters who have made the ultimate sacrifice within the fire and emergency medical services.Children who continue to be children when they know they have a terminal illness. I wish I had their strength.Children who don't let grown bullies in our nations school systems still their dream or break their spirit.True teachers who care about there students and are not either grown bullies trying to crush the dreams of our future because they don't like themselve, or that are their for a paycheck and don't like being bothered by the "brats" of today.My son Chris. He is an Eagle Scout and very active in the Order of the Arrow. He is Chapter Chief of the Sheltowee Chapter. I do wish he took high school more seriously, though. I love to watch him grow and prosper as well as have fun. It saddens me watching him realize that adults (although they may be teachers or principles) can be the biggest bullies that teenagers have to face.Mamie, she is very smart and self motivating. She can do anything that she sets her mind to. Starting to feel the pains of the teenage years and is handling them in stride. Is a leader who marches to her own drum. Recently earned her Venture Bronze and is working on her Venture Ranger award!Earon is full of life and love. She has had to overcome some teasing in school and I'm proud of her for this. She has very "thin skin" and wears her heart on her sleeve. She still likes school and makes straight A's. Like Mamie, Earon walks to her own beat and doesn't care if what she likes is stylish or not, she knows what she likes. Like her daddy she is chubby. I wish she didn't let it bother her so. She is still a beatiful little girl.Regina is a 40 year old in a child's body. She hates school already. She is the comic of the bunch and never forgets anything. Famous for her straightforward questions. Wishes that she lived when I was a kid so she could have a dinosaur like the Flintsones. Although the toys are better now and she's glad that she has more toys than just the dirt that I played with. Fascinated by bones of any kind to almost a morbid state. Is always bringing new bones into the house. Shocked her mother by asking if she could have her bones when she died. Loves to tell everyone how, "Dad is older than dirt." Always has a mischievous smirk on her face, even when sucking her thumb.
