About Me

The short version: Spent a year in college only to dump it for the United States Army. Fast forward a couple of years and now I'm in Iraq. In retrospect it was probably a bad decision. I'm eager to return to civilian life.

1/28/06: Okay guess what now I'm back home and I get boozed up so yes this is a run on sentence but I don't care right now ha.

My Interests

Walks on beaches, sunbathing, singing in the shower, and frolicking amongst the tulips outside my imaginary house are just a few examples of things I am not interested in at all.

I'd like to meet:

The man who created Myspace.com. Yes Tom, I want to meet you.

Music:

It's good. I heartily recommend it!

Movies:

I don't watch them.

I LIVE them.

Television:

"...chattering cyclops!"

Books:

Too many to mention.

I shall disclose later.

Heroes:

Abraham Lincoln kicked ass.
