I am a part of all that I have met

About Me

Where to begin? I used to say that I was unique but lately I've noticed that many people like to view themselves as such. The question is, if there are that many people that feel that way, then are they that rare? It is in that spirit that I'll say I'm probably one of many people that love the art of language, with passions for American history, national politics and billiards, aka pool. I'm pretty diverse in what I like as I also like playing cards, going out dancing, going out to dinner, going to shows and also enjoy astronomy. I strive to be a gentleman, respectful and to be an honorable person in an age where sadly I find that to be lacking more and more. As I've grown older I find myself wanting to learn and experience new and different things.
