: About Me

I'm a small town boy that never got to kick the dirt off his shoes. Born in 1975, and I live about 300 yards away from the neighborhood where I grew up. I'm like most people in America today, I come from a broken home, my parents divorced when I was three, and I only see them in Wal-Mart from time to time. It doesn't make me sad, I have my own life. I never went to college, I spent my younger years working hard and trying to make sense of who I was. I found out that I am exactly who I was meant to be.
I can't remember who said that life isn't peculiar, that people make it peculiar. But I like that philosophy, and I've tried to keep it. I don't judge people for what they are to others, only by how they treat me. And I've met a lot of decent people using that knowledge.
I like zombie movies, and I love playing my PS3 online. I have a wife and a stepdaughter. And we recently started our own business. I do sprayed on bed-liners, custom seamless floors and protective surfaces and coatings. I did flooring for fifteen years, and I always liked working on trucks and anything that was broken. Basically I'm a guy. I love tools, so with my business I get to combine my experience with my hobbies. One day I'll be able to love what I do. For some reason I feel like there should be a few LOL's in here, but that would ruin the context of the site wouldn't it?

Why I write ...

Because no one can tell me to shut up when I express myself through that medium. And I am very creative, but tend to be a little offensive and arrogant. Most people don't realize it's just sarcasm and wit, my chosen brand of humor. So they write it off as arrogance and take offense.

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

Five different browser pages, writing on two forums watching the weather channel, on tv and listening to the news on the computer. And that's while I'm writing this.

My first job ...

Was in a garage.

My best moment ...

I'll let you know when I acheive it. If I ever stop looking for it.

My inspiration ...

My wife. If she thinks I'm good enough then I must be, right?

Health & Fitness > Medical Concerns & Issues Medical use of marijuana is all a question of politics

3 of 4

How racism killed our Buzz. I have started to notice a growing trend in America. And that is Medical Marijuana legislation, and Compassionate use laws. I will not insult your intelligence and engage in the banter often used on this subject. Instead I urge you to research the laws and come to your own conclusions. Please research the history of how Marijuana Prohibition came about. I have, and I assure you it is a ridiculous story of lies, racism, and fear tactics used by a power hungry bigot named Harry J. Anslinger. The road to hell is paved with good intentions, and I am sure he had the ...
