I have barking manatees in my tummy!

About Me

I'm what Willis was talking about. I've been some places, done some things. I'm currently redefining my life. I'm out of the Corps. I own my own company, work for another, and I'm 26 and still working on a college degree. I like insensitive humor, I think Fight Club was a great commentary on our current state, I am a repository of useless information. My wallet says BMF. I have many leatherbound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany. I have the greatest job in the world, or at least in the top 5, right up there with benevolent dictator and astronaut. If you're reading this far you're very bored. Try taking a walk, or go fishing. If you're reading this late at night, try some chamomile tea, or just a shot of scotch, that puts me to sleep.
You Are An INTP
The Thinker
You are analytical and logical - and on a quest to learn everything you can.
Smart and complex, you always love a new intellectual challenge.
Your biggest pet peeve is people who slow you down with trivial chit chat.
A quiet maverick, you tend to ignore rules and authority whenever you feel like it.
In love, you are an easy person to fall for. But not an easy person to stay in love with.
Although you are quite flexible, you often come off as aloof or argumentative.
At work, you are both a logical and creative thinker. You are great at solving problems.
You would make an excellent mathematician, programmer, or professor.
How you see yourself: Creative, fair, and tough-minded
When other people don't get you, they see you as: arrogant, cold, and robotic What's Your Personality Type?UPDATE: 27 now. Still no college degree.

Amon Tobin rocks hardcore, and before there was Kanye, there was Curtis Mayfield, with Move On Up... width="425" height="350">.. ..>

My Blog

Ron Paul, FTW

So I've been fed up with the American political system for some time.  I'm opposed to career politicians, but since the American people think that career politicians is what we need, that's what we ha...

Civil war

This is in response to a comment I got in my second perspective blog. Although I have no doubt that a civil war is in our future, and I agree it would most likely be about socioeconomic issues, I do n...

Perspective part 2

I'm struggling to process all that I've been through and apply it to my worldview.  How to reconcile the toll war takes with my former worldview?  I was all about this war in the beginning, ...

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving sucks.  It's a fiasco that does nothing but force people who wouldn't ordinarily hang out together to do so.  I hate being obligated to do anything, it takes away the meaning of...

Bill O'Reilly

Bill O'Reilly is a buffoon and speaks only for really old people.  He has a few good points, but the more I listen to him, the more I think of a crotchety old grandparent. That's all I had....

Perspective

here's something decent that was circulating through the bulletins.  It just helps to put a little bit of perspective on things.  Of course, this is no justification for war in general. ...

Unfinished business

I can feel it.  It looks like I'm going to get another go 'round in the sandbox.  I just have that funny feeling that it's coming, and I was right about it the first time.  Part of me o...

Bush and Katrina

Allright, so everyone loves to blame Bush, that's a given.  I'm not a big fan of Bush myself, and I hate that anyone gets elected because "he's better than the other guy."  I long for a day ...

Saving Private Ryan

Dude, awesome movie.  Awesome, awesome movie.  But I would spit in Corporal Upham's awful face.  He doesn't grow any fucking balls until the end of the movie when he could have saved hi...
