1ceman23 - The Return of Philfus

It's not what you SAY, but what you DO that defines you.

About Me


I don't allow fear to greatly influence what I do and don't do in life; neither should you. Of course, that doesn't mean you just go out and do things without thinking - but if you really think about it - people often limit (and sometimes severly limit) what they do in life because of fear of embarassment, lack of self-confidence, fear of getting hurt, or other things that can be more easily overcome than you think. This is not just about fear about relationships, this is about fear in general - in everything we do. When you overcome your fears - YOU SET YOURSELF FREE. Life then changes so much for the better. Think about it, and send me a note on your thoughts.
I am down to earth, friendly, modest, humorous, determined, easy going, level headed, caring, mature, and honest...don't be afraid to send me a message, I don't bite and I am respectful to the ladies.
Some quotes I try to live by:
"One man with courage makes a majority." - Andrew Jackson
"Let it be said that we shall not live in fear, but we shall prevail in this attack against our way of life and our principles. For those of us in positions of leadership, it is our God given duty to lead the way." - Me after the 9/11 attacks
"Your word is your bond, son. It's all you have." - Denzel Washington in the movie JOHN Q.
...I try to live by those quotes by at times it is still hard to CONTROL MYSELF... ;-)
