Chuck Norris doesn't read books. He stares them down until he gets the information he wants.

About Me

I like a good high five and a good handshake. I love coffee, guns, history, Scotch, camping, hiking, running, BEER, the boardgame RISK, and avacados. I love to cook and bake while listening only to the best metal. I touch things impulsively, I can't go long without looking at words, and I loathe numbers. I got a history degree from Oregon State University in '05 and I've lived in Beaverton since January with my Colbesmeister and my Gunthmeister. I want to get a Masters degree in Library Science or Museum Studies and work in an social studies teacher. This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!
