About me

Gender Male
Industry Military
Introduction I am married to a woman whose character is a daily inspiration, with whom I have four great kids. I've been called loyal, hard-working, and sincere. I've also been called sharp-tounged, stubborn and self-centered. I've traveled enough to appreciate home, but nowhere near enough to be a "man of the world".
Interests reading, writing, strategy, lifting weights, military and political history
Favorite Movies Ike-Countdown to D-Day, Band of Brothers, The Professionals, The Best Years of Our Lives
Favorite Music The Who, The Cars, The Clash, The Ramones, Springsteen, Great Big Sea
Favorite Books The Killer Angels by Michael Shaara, The Caine Mutiny by Herman Wouk

You can punch a hole in an apple using a straw. How do you think that makes your milkshake feel?

Confident. Having read Sun Tzu, my milkshake knows to "be like water" and will engulf rather than resist the straw.
