More of an Independent when it comes to politics. I don't have "pet peeves", I refer to them as outwardly projected ******* hatreds...LMAO! I'm a former Marine, College Student (Senior at the University of Texas-Arlington), majoring in Philosophy (pre-law) with a minor in Business, after graduation I'm going to prepare for the LSAT (I'm leaning towards the University of Texas school of Law in Austin).



I'm originally from western Nebraska (born/raised) and moved down to Texas in 1995. I enlisted in the Marines shortly after, spent my enlistment in New Orleans and moved back to Texas to finish my degree. I'm a fan of the Nebraska Cornhuskers college football program, GO BIG RED!!!


I'm into almost anything tech based, I keep up to date on information as it hits the wire. I like tearing down my pc and rebuilding it for fun. I love downloading/listening to music, same w/movies (downloading/watching), testing out software, staying fit, hitting the gym 6x per week. Indoor rock climbing, sand volleyball, running, reading, or working on friends' computers (debugging them/setting up their security).
