“Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing"
NEWS AND.... THE REST OF THE STORY
Linked stories are for your consideration - I never endorse anyone's opinion but my own. All my writings are well researched; particularly stories pertaining to the environment, renewable energy, military science and bicycling.
Note: As a former American soldier, I don't take sides in international conflicts and try to be objective.
Hey there! I’m a bit of a jack-of-all-trades. I love to read and write, with a particular fondness for sci-fi, memoirs, and fantasy. I’m also a dancer, a collector of books, and have a knack for memorizing things (though I’ve lost my mind a time or two!). Oh, and I’m a pink alien at heart with a healthy dose of optimism.
While small talk isn't my strong suit, I’m a friendly soul and these days, I’ve even got an ordination certificate from Dudeism!
When it comes to writing, I focus on the world around me, and my fiction and fantasy shorts have had me thinking about bending reality. I once produced, directed, and wrote over 30 short films in just a few weeks—because why not?

"The pioneers get all the arrows"
My first calling was as a musician and songwriter...I was fortunate enough to have a good run...Some songs from a friend of mine you never heard but might like...

Friend of mine once told me this lyric should be stitched on a pillow:
"I believe that life is for living and love is the axis on which we turn
We bare our souls till all is forgiven
and clothe ourselves with the lessons learned"

A favorite quote from a favorite author:
“A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”
― Robert A. Heinlein
...and one I saw on a studio wall in Nashville:
“Never attempt to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and annoys the pig.”
― Robert Heinlein, Time Enough for Love
OK...one more...
“A dying culture invariably exhibits personal rudeness. Bad manners. Lack of consideration for others in minor matters. A loss of politeness, of gentle manners, is more significant than is a riot.”
― Robert A. Heinlein, Friday

Individual Freedom - Individual Responsibility. Combat Veteran and Defender of the Oppressed. As the empire collapses, civility dies. Stay fit or die early. Lately, I’ve come to realize that our time is too precious to waste on people who haven’t made an effort to become reasonably well informed and possess a mature and practical outlook.

Commies, Socialists, Nazi's need to be removed from our country.
We need to get back to following the Constitution how it was written and continue to fight for our liberty till our last breath!
