This is the page where I'll go on about myself in a little detail and but I'll probably delete this page in the near future.

Well, I'm back driving a truck again for the time being (part-time though).  Got to work on my physical well-being.

I have too many CD's.  I also used to like to collect signed first-edition mystery novels but I haven't pursued that interest in a while.  I just don't have to disposable income anymore.  (NOTE: I just made an exception for "As Simple As Snow" by Gregory Galloway)

Mt. Lafayette, NH
(as seen from ridge line)

Hey, I made it up Mt. Lafayette this year.  Now I'm trying to get myself in enough shape to tackle Mt. Washington...

My Views:
Political Affiliation:  None, unless you count anti-Republican after the shanigans I believe the Republicans did in Florida with the 2000 election.  I recently registered as an independent.
George Bush, Jr.:  He's an idiot.  I might have voted for John McCain back in 2000 if he was on the final ballot.  I couldn't see what anyone saw in Jr. and needless to say, my feelings on that only seem to increase exponentially (sp?).
Clear Channel: They suck.  They seem to be trying to own everything.  I really hate what they did to what used to be called Great Woods in Mansfield, MA.  It used to be my favorite place to catch music and now it's a soulless pit.
