I’m like a cold beer on a hot day. It’s that good

About Me

So because of the demands of some I have updated my info. I am living in Cheney Washington. Let me tell you great place. Nightlife here is unbelievable. Our Safeway stays open until 12:00 AM and our Blockbuster is open until 11. That’s right we have a Blockbuster. Outside of that folks seem to just drink and play in the wheat fields………it’s not that bad but it certainly not Seattle. Anyway I’m working on my Masters in Education. I’ll be in a high school classroom starting this September. I have taken summer classes, worked on campus and tanned for the past two months. Folks over here are great, and I have developed several very good relationships with people. A moment of bragging….. I have lost almost 53 lbs. That’s right people in just over seven months I’m looking that good. Thinking of selling my weight loss program for only 2 g’s. Give me a call if your interested. Seahawks season is right around the corner. STAP IT UP BABY IT”S HAWKTIME!!!!!! HOW’BOUT THEM APPLES!!! Ok I have been told by several people in Cheney, Bellingham, Seattle and all family members that I’m a bit intense about the Seahawks. I would consider myself to be a casual fan. Looking forward to another Super Bowl run. So to recap working on masters, living in Cheney, huge hawk fan, enjoy long walks in the desert (or beach), and late nights of drinking/talking political philosophical topics, watching any type of sports (is soccer a sport??? Still unsure) family huge part of my life, hardcore Republican who is finally in a red part of the country (People do love Bush it’s awesome) enjoy history and talking about it to anything that breaths, Bob’s Burgers and Brew is God’s gift to mankind, looking forward to my bro coming back to Eastern with me and I love an ice cold gin and tonic. That’s right stuff in the recap was not talked about in above narration but was in your textbook and assigned homework so it will be on the final.Get a MySpace layout like this one! Free Layouts

My Interests

Food, sports, political debate, going on long random road trips, the beach, food, good late night conversation, family, faith and food.

I'd like to meet:

Some people I would like to meet from the past are Gaius Octavius later Augustus the first Emperor of Rome. I also would like to meet Alexander Hamilton simply because of his great influence on Washington and his unique political impact. John Locke, well obviously because of his work. Then you have all the great Russian Tsars and then Douglas MacArthur and Turman in the same room would be nuts. Wow and Chiang Kai Shek and Mao Tse Tung together. The list goes on and on. As a history major there are just way to many people I would love to talk to. Now I would love to meet the President and Sec. Of State Ms. Rice. Newt would also be a cool guy to talk to because of his switch from education to the political arena. Margaret Thatcher the Iron Lady would be very cool to talk to.

CREATE YOUR OWN! - or - GET PAID TO TAKE SURVEYS!

Music:

As far as music goes my rule is anything but rap. I can listen to, and enjoy, everything from indie rock to classical guitar to Metallica and Yo Yo Ma to George Jones. Music really can drive your mood or your mood at the time impact your music selection. It is a two way door which effects the sounds you pick (not like at Target where I found that you can not get into a exit door you have to enter though the enter door or the employees get angry at you) As long as I’m not being rapped at all is well with the world. Right now I really like Keiko Matsui and her album Wildflowers.

Movies:

I love Man on Fire. The duel nature of the film is so good and Denzel Washington role is unbeatable. Black Hawk Down also is good in the fact that it shows the ugly human side of war and what are brave men and women have to face every day to keep us safe at home. I also like Gladiator and The Untouchables. As far as comedies go Old School, Anchorman and Wedding Crashes are far above the pack. Nothing comes close to those three.

Television:

I am a huge fan of The Office. I love SportsCenter and I never miss a Monday Night Football game. One show that few people watch but the Brit Humes News hour is a good way to get updated about the day and what is going on in the world. CSI is also a good program. Outside of sports, the office and news I try and limit my tv watching. Not that I am talking a moral high ground stand by making this statement. Oftentimes people will say they don’t watch tv and somehow feel morally superior to those around them. I enjoy tv just as much as the next guy but since I have graduated from college I have been trying to read more so I do not just become a uneducated lump of cells sitting as the soft glow of set washings away any quizzical thoughts I have (so I guess I am taking a moral position on tv sorry about that).

Books:

David McCullough: 1776 Henry Kissinger: Diplomacy Jared Diamond: Guns, Germs, and Steel Dante: The Divine Comedy Thomas Paine: Common Sense and Rights of Man

Heroes:

People who have strong leadership and strong convictions are people I admire ie. George Bush, Benjamin Netanyahu, John Winthrop, Winston Churchill and Ronald Reagan.
