About Me

People demand freedom of speech
as a compensation for the freedom of thought
which they seldom use - Soren Kierkegaard
Alright, I just moved to the Buckley area and am currently a stay at home father. I just quit my job in the Department of Defense as a Military Police training instructor. There I taught a myriad of classes ranging from ASP baton and Spontaneous Knife Defense to First Responder Medical Aid, CPR, Federal and State Law, and Anti Terrorism/Force Protection....you know, the same stuff I am teaching my daughters now that I stay at home. I spent 6 years in the Active Duty military and am a veteran of the Global War on Terrorism. I have been married to my lovely wife, Amanda Lynn, since January 2001. She was an Air Traffic Controller in the military, where of course we met and have been going strong since, and now works for the FAA as an Air Traffic Controller again. My first daughter, Daycie Virginia, was born in 2003 and my second daughter, Caralyn Sage, was born in 2005. That is about all I am willing to offer without being asked more about myself.

My Interests

Playing dress-up with my daughters and interacting with every little part of their lives. Sitting and talking with my wife about absolutely nothing. She has a way of making something as mundane as that interesting

I'd like to meet:

My Great Grandmother Wright one last time

Heroes:

Simply Stated? My Father for his strength, my mother for her heart, my wife for her wisdom, my children for their innocence, my brother Randy for his art, my sister Jill for her ability to interact with anyone, my brother Kyle for his skills with computers and electronics, and my yougest brother John for his peace and giving me the chance to be a mentor. And of course the countless others, both friends and enemies, that made me into the man I have become.
