Eddie

Just one step on a million-mile journey is one step closer to finishing than when you started.

About Me

I like to think of myself as a cool guy but not as cool as these guys:

My Interests

Hmm...

I'd like to meet:

The people behind this clever little commercial: A feast indeed...

Music:

Just about anything. Above all, I am a trance-a-holic. ^__^

Movies:

History-based movies, comedies, action, and some drama.

Television:

CNN (more often than not), History Channel, G4, occasionally TV Land, Adult Swim and that's pretty much it.

Books:

I've gotten in the mode of reading nothing but school texts and army field manuals. Quite evidently, I have no life...

Heroes:

My parents.

Rest In Peace, Mr. Zack...

Today, we went to a memorial service for my landlord. His wife spread his ashes in the  very place she was baptized some 14 years ago in Ipan. As we sang hymns, I couldn't helrp but feel bad for ...

They Who Dared The Impossible

Fifty years ago, on September 6, 1957, nine African-American students at Little Rock, Arkansas defied the odds and entered Little Rock Central High School which then only catered white students. Despi...

Bouncing Back (And Looking for a New Home)

First, I'd just like to remember my landlord, Mr. Zack, who passed on last night. He was a very great man and though it was disheartening to hear of his passing, it comforts me to know he had wanted t...

A Great Lesson on Ex’s and Friends

I think I've learned a great deal tonight about having closure with someone you used to share so much with. At the same time, I've also come to better understand the value of friends in the best of ti...

Currently Listening To...

First off, I'll warn you this playlist consists of electronica songs so anyone who finds that "techno" music causes their heads to explode should cease and turn away from this listing NOW. So yeah... ...
