Interests
FUN? Oh that, yeah. Well, I enjoy reading, and listening to music. I have been a lifelong student of American history, and have read exstensively on many aspects of our nations founding up to the present. In particular I am an avid reader of US Civil War history and WWII, although as of late I have been reading or listening to audio books about the American Revolution and it's early westward expansion. I also enjoy little trips into the world of sci-fi as a change of pace from time to time.
I maintain a political blog and that keeps me sort of busy.
I work at night so daytime activities are very much limited. However my family and I manage to find the time to do things and go places now and then.
Occupation
I work for the the USPS.
Personal Quote
My favorite quote is from Theodore Roosevelt;
"I speak softly but I carry a big stick"
