I got out of there, got edjumicated, traveled the world, sort of, and now reside happily in North Carolina. I teach English at a community college. I ride a Harley-Davidson, I make video logs, I write sometimes in my blog, I sit on my "man chair" and watch ID or Science Channel. I have two Scottish Terriers, a Rat Terrier, and a Chihuahua. I am spoken for, and if I weren't I ain't interested anyway! I'm an Independent. I have liberal views on gay marriage, drug legalization, and immigration. I have conservative views on guns, taxes, personal responsibility, language use, and health care. I don't believe in conspiracy theories. I'm not into any form of organized religion. I am kind of spiritual and maybe even a tad Christian. I really don't care enough to do anything about it or for it. Just keep religion to yourself and I will be happy. I love technology and science. I am not good at mechanical things or math. I love food. I love drink. I love language. I like guns, collect them, shoot them, and even make my own .45 ACP ammo. But I'm not a prepper!! I read a bit, but I am not snooty about it. I don't put on airs and get mad when people get all high and mighty. All humans are created equal.
