About Me

I'm very smart and only sleep about 4-5 hours a night. So, I have a lot of time to fill. Mainly, I read, but I've also got a ton of hobbies to keep me busy. I think being intelligent is more of a curse. I'm often disappointed by the everyday antics of the masses and often go out of my way to avoid people all together.
I want simple things, though. I like things that are straightforward and plain.
I'm also very disappointed in the collapse of things like courtesy and valor. I hold things like honor, discipline and respect in high esteem. I loathe the fact that virtue is treated like a disease and the word itself is looked at with more disdain than most obscenities.
That's just wrong.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

There's a few people I'd love to meet.I'd love to meet Nikola Tesla, Mark Cuban, Richard Branson or Robert Asprin.I like people who are gifted in their field and visionaries. I also like people who have presence, like Teddy Roosevelt, who you 'knew' entered a room before you even saw them enter a room. That type of person amazes me.
