Welcome

Hello and welcome to my blog.

My friends (if you could find any) would tell you that above all that I am a complex man. I am a proudly dorky fifth year senior mechanical engineering major whose hobbies include music, humor, and politics. (Anyone who successfully made it through that sentence I applaud you.) Music is a large part of my life. I am involved in several ensembles and was recently elected CEO of my university’s marching band. I am also a member of the Phi Mu Alpha Music Fraternity. I currently hold the office of Fraternal Education Officer of our chapter. Basically, my fraternal duties include the education of fraternity members, running the recruitment program, and to lose paperwork at every opportunity. I can't speak for the first two, but I promise the last objective I fulfill regularly.

Politics is a passion of mine. I am a staunch conservative on most issues: Limited government, aggressive national security, and fiscal restraint are central tenets of this movement. While I do subscribe to a conservative ideology, many of my closest friends hold different beliefs. This blog is a welcome place for rational debate. If you disagree or think I make a flawed argument tell me!

Why did I start this blog?
Miss America Version: I enjoy expressing myself and listening to other’s thoughts. When I explain my rationale to others, I am really learning who I am. I thrive on the energy of others, because passionate people bring out who I am.
Real Version: My roommate who writes for The Common Virtue was tired of listening to me and told me to go write this nonsense down.

WARNING:
Please understand that i try to express myself cogently and efficiently but correcting my spelling or punctuation might-be a wasted effort. I welcume anyone to try.
