About Me

A man should believe that there is good in the world. People shouldn't put so much stock in religion as in themselves and our neighbors. I am a person who is deep in thought at times, imperfect like anyone else. I sit in my own place in the world. I'm not all knowing nor do I intend to be arrogant, Although I know that I come across in that fashion more often than I'd like. If I'm not sure about something, I'm likely to back down easily on it and easily admit being wrong.I love technology and the speed at which it changes. The change of technology is like nothing else in existence. The only thing that limits our accomplishment is our imagination."I've always wanted to fight a desperate battle against incredible odds." - Grigg

My Interests

Data Networking, Contemporary History (Big Oxymoron), Politics, Electronics, Strategy, Dining, Science Fiction, Conversation, I'm open to new things.

I'd like to meet:

Someone who doesn't think inside a box. People who are willing to step outside of their own perception to see other perceptions.Anyone at all who has interest in biulding and designing data networks.And or anyone that is interested in having a good stimulating conversation.

Music:

I listen to pretty much anything. If it's got a good beat, I'll listen to it. Sometimes though more importantly music has to move you by it's expression in either your interpretation of the artist's intention or by the artist's actual intention.

One – two – three – four – five – six – seven – eight

Days go marching by

There and back I never wait for a confident reply

Truth is stark and leaves its mark as limited constraints

And the most difficult part is accepting what the future may bring

It seems like a lifetime of scrutiny

Wither the path, whether worth the fee

A lifetime of scrutiny

And it seems as though I can't be sure of anything more

One – two – three – four – five – six – seven – eight

Years go flying by

No one seems to hesitate or cast an earnest eye

Judgment comes in many forms but never scare or shy

And the litany is long as the confidence is strong in their delight

It seems like a lifetime of scrutiny

Prejudicial waters wash over me

A lifetime of scrutiny

And the words just don't equate with sense or sanity anymore

One – two – three – four – five – six – seven – eight

The faces and the names

Shattered hopes and stolen dreams and no one left to blame

Is it possible to win this pointless mortal game?

..Cuz when death comes it's swift and my friend,

We end up and the same

It feels like a lifetime of scrutiny

Wither the path and whether worth the fee

A lifetime of scrutiny

And it seems as though I can't remember of anything anymore

Heroes:

It's hard to define this as it is hard to define the measure of a hero. A person that has sacrificed for something that they believe in, having died for it, and no one ever knowing or acknowledging that sacrifice. I don't think that such a person would be easy to come across.All the good heroes are gone.

Women and Swords

Not sure exactly why, But a woman who can handle a sword just seems very appealing. I'm not sure how this came up in my normal thoughts, but it just must have popped in there.. Kinda like Mr. Stay Puf...

Beauty

I tripped over some of Emerson's writing today, and I thought I would share it. " I am warned by the ill fate of many philosophers not to attempt a definition of Beauty. I will rather enumerate a few ...

Our American Nation

It's funny, I'll bet the founding father's never invisioned anything like what we have today. The warnings of our forefathers gone completely ignored. I used to be fairly mad and downright upset about...

Patriotic Ramblings of the Disillusioned

We swallow it all and we see nothing change. Fuck this place and all these self righteous mother fuckers who think they mean a good god-damn. None of them has a single fuckin' idea. Those who know don...

Poo!

It's all like poo. Life changes so fast. You can be on one path one moment and then all of the sudden cross paths with something that you hardly thought you would again. :p It's weird

Sad State of our Union

Where once we stood for freedom, now we stand for our own interests. Trying to hold on to our fading dollar with all our military might. Hoping that our control on the world's energy reserves holds. B...

Juniper Router Architexture

Kinda funny how the Juniper Olive is called what it is.. Since it's basically just a routing engine and if you think about how the routing engine sits in the top of the Martini architexture. It's a li...

That special someone

How the mighty have fallen. And while Rome burns, Nero plays it's fiddle. I guess it's a mean thought, but then we are all self-ish beings on some level. And that is the way it should be.

Women

Every call creates such a rise that cannot be quelled. It starts a fire in the heart and makes the soul hot to the touch. Images of her smile dance in my head, while the sound of her voice sends my he...

Love

    She's out there. Sometimes I think she cares, others I have no clue. Short messages that have little meaning to the casual listener mean everything and nothing. It's such drunk sinc...
