I am here for Friends

About Me

I just withdrew from Pellissippi State Technical Community College to join the U.S. Marine Corps., and I'm going to ship to basic training on April 7th. Because of my time with the Greeneville High School Air Force JROTC I will automatically be Private First Class (E2). I'm going to marry my beautiful fiancee Erika in July so she will be following me to my first duty station after I finish all of my training later in the fall. We both want to finish our schooling wherever that may be. I'm a motivated individual. I like political discussion and the History Channel, and I spend a lot of time playing Civilization. I like techno music and consider myself pretty random. Do you like Skittles?

My Interests

Military, law, real estate, strategy, my love of Erika, movie reviewing, public speaking, really high class fashion and cars, languages, irony, pimpin' ties, my reflection, listening to Rush Limbaugh, and talking about anything.

I'd like to meet:

Rush Limbaugh, Chesty Puller, Napoleon Buonaparte, any and/or all U.S. Presidents, Jesus, and others.

Music:

If it's techno or rock, I like it. No country. Or anything not techno or rock. By techno I mean like electronica, dance, house, or anything with a really cool base beat and electronicy noises.

Movies:

I once worked at a movie theater so I watched many movies. So many movies that I know what a good movie is when I see it, and I don't feel like listing all of them right now. But if you really want to know, ask me, and I will tell you.

Television:

If I have time for such things, it's pretty much the History Channel, Comedy Central, or Fox News.

Books:

I'm really not a big fan of fiction. If I read anything it usually has a purpose behind it other than entertainment.

Heroes:

See who I'd like to meet.
