| Introduction | I am a business owner, father, husband, Patriot, conservative, and a Marine Corps veteran. I am a geek, and a high tech freak. I love old cars, big guns the woods, the trees and sand fleas. I know that the Second Amendment has only one comma and that there is no part of “shall not be infringed” that even an idiot should be confused with. I am strongly opinionated, yet respect the rights of others to have an opinion that may differ from mine. I am one of few American Truckers that astronomical fuel prices didn’t put out of business. The American Trucker felt it one and a half years before “Main street America” did. It nearly killed us all. I have been in the tech world in one form or another since 1980. I love building computers, writing code, inventing new things or expanding on current ones. I am a gadget fanatic, and in particular a Blackberry fan. I am still madly in love with my school sweetheart for over twenty years now. We were married not long ago under the hot Mississippi summer sun of 1985. Together we have two beautiful daughters. We live nestled within the rolling hills of north Mississippi tucked away under the canopy of the Holly Springs National forest. |

| Favorite movies | I enjoy a rather eclectic taste in movies.

| Favorite music | I avoid much of rap, as the message tends to degrade and demean. Other than that, I love all genres of music, and openly accept new genres continuously. To list my favorites would be an exercise in futility, as I have over a Tb in storage of music alone. Suffice it to say that I love music. |
| Favorite books | THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY by Douglas Adams, TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD by Harper Lee, LORD OF THE FLIES by William Golding, THE STAND by Stephen King, ABSALOM, ABSALOM! by William Faulkner, SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES by Ray Bradbury, ANIMAL FARM by George Orwell, THE CATCHER IN THE RYE by J.D. Salinger are but a few. |
Radio wire is often used to make bird nests. What station do they listen to?
To America Right, of course.
