About Me

I'm a “somewhat” of a private person (Though I am loosening up. I think it’s because I’m old and I just don’t give a rip anymore).

I'm most definitely a realist, and I'm easily amused. To be very honest, I can find humor in pretty much everything.

I hate drama and people who are "PC". They way I see it, if you can't tell someone the truth, what type of a friend are you really? I absolutely "HATE" buzzwords and cliché'. It's been said that using those words/phrases are a substitute for original thinking. I believe it.

I believe in God and his son Jesus Christ. I'm not too keen on religion, but I am about relationship.

I believe in the First and Second Amendments. As far as the Second Amendment is concerned, though I support it completely, I am "not" a card-carrying member of the NRA. Because I don't believe in carrying too many cards around with me at one time.

I have 2 kids. My daughter is a 27 (and grew up faster than I would have liked). And my son (who's 29) is video gameaholic who currently plays them for 18 out of the 24 hours in a day (yes, I'm a bad parent). I guess if I had the choice between his video game addiction and some other type of destructive addiction, video games aren't all that bad (I guess I am a good parent after all). Hmmmmm

I like sports (playing more than watching). I'm pretty active as well. Currently, I bowl and I work out 4-5 days a week. I also enjoy playing music. This helps with the boredom.

I get bored easy and have a hard time sticking with anything for long periods (though I am getting better at that). If I'm not having any fun at something, it does me no good wasting time continuing to do it. When it gets boring or drama starts to set in, it's time to move on (I wonder if this is something I need to work on?).

I eat junk food and love it! (I do eat healthy too).

I think that's about it.
