Appalachian Patria

Appalachian Intellectual. To me that means plain thinking. I am A Non Commissioned Officer in the Army Reserves. Let me say...My views expressed here are mine and not those of The U.S. Army, Army Reserve or my fellow brethren in The National Guard. This is entirely Sua Sponte. This is My Thinking. I'm single and in my mid 30's. Politicaly, I'm a Libertarian. (Again, Sua Sponte.I do not represent the Libertarian Party.)I love my native Appalachia, Rock n Roll and...I love God.

About Me

Name:
Location: Brevard, North Caroilina

I started blogging for two reasons. I was concerned about the changes to the area I live in, Southern Appalachia and I was about to go to the war. I was in Iraq in 06 and 07 and now Kuwait in 11 and 12. Blogging was a means of documenting my experiences and hoping it would help gain clarity. I don't feel that way about it any more. It's said people write blogs because they are frustrated, that's why people read them too. That makes us sound apocalyptic. Are we? Let it be said, what I say here is of my own thinking. This is entirely Sua Sponte and not an official representation of the U.S. Military or the U.S. Government as a whole.

Interesting Quotes

"Wisdom hath Builded a house: she hath hewn out her Seven Pillars. Give instruction to a wise man and he will yet be wiser: teach a just man and he will increase in learning."
Proverbs 9:1

"You have such a magnifcent military force, General Powell, why are you so reluctant to use it?"
Then Secretary of State Madeline Albright to then Chairmen Joint Cheif of Staff, Gen. Powell

I meant to tell Ed Abernathy I really dig Fran Drescher.

March came like a lion. Not a big one, but, a lion non the less. Monday's slush gave way to clear, windy and cold. Tuesday clouds hung over the high lonsome and just sat there...left them covered in snow. The Cherokee called March "Wind Moon". Those two words haunt me. I'm writing two books. The first chapter of one is titled Wind Moon. I haven't managed to write much in a while.

I wonder what Frans hair looks like in the wind...

Yeah...she's a hottie. I saw her breasts once. In a movie she made before becoming famous. That was a high point in my normally uneventful life.

But lordy, lordy...she sounds like a wounded mule when she talks. Not sure I could take that for long. Actually, I'm SURE that I couldn't take that for long.

Something unususal about me, the lady's voice doesn't bother me a bit. A monument should be built for her.
