: About Me

I am a writer and student currently traveling the US. While I have no specific focus for writing as I see word-smithing only as a tool to be applied to a given task, I generally find myself tackling political, religious, and scientific issues. The writing which appears on this site is a mixture of impromptu essays, tapped out in about fifteen minutes to copies of work previously written. Nearly everything winds up on my personal blog, located at www.warriorvisions.com.

Additionally, my resume site lists what others skills and experiences I have picked up along the way and may even be of particular interest to those readers seeking to hire one such as me. That site is found at www.brianragle.com.

The information combined from those two sites will reveal more about me than anything I could possibly convey in this space. I invite your visits even as I ask you to consider what writing I have submitted here. I welcome comments and feedback via email at bragle@gmail.com.

My passion is ...

to go over the next hill no matter the opposition.

I know too much about ...

that which could never earn a paycheck.

My parents always told me ...

to be either a doctor or a priest as both do the same thing.

My childhood ambition ...

was to sniff planets and touch stars.

My favorite memory ...

is from a time of oblivion wherein all memory stopped.

Why I write ...

saves those around me from the rattling chains which haunt my dreams.

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

a veritable orgy of contemporary television ranging from the absurd to the beautific.

My first job ...

involved learning to keep my mouth shut and I still work at it to this day.

My best moment ...

has yet to arrive and I hope it never does as all is downhill from there.

My inspiration ...

arrives at odd hours, stays too long, and drinks all my beer.

Fear, itself America, as a nation, is just over 230 years old. In that time, it has grown from a collection of colonial sub-states into a behemoth empire, with comparisons to other historical empires being continually revised and updated as American power waxes and wanes. Such a birth and growth as America has enjoyed has not been without creating external enemies, nor could it have been expected to avoid such. It was in meeting, challenging, and sometimes conquering those enemies which solidified and expanded the American empire. Those enemies have always had faces and names. Some were ot...
