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.

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.

I Wanna Be Sedated

I love it. What's The Rock Station playing this morning when I crawl out of the rack?...The Ramones, "I Wanna Be Sedated"! That's the feeling I get when I watch ABC News lately. It's also the feeling us Mountain People get when we get behind someone from Florida on these roads.

I was eating at a restaraunt with Girl Of Latley(way back in spring, if she's reading this she knows the time) and she's talking to me...I look around and the place is full of upper middle aged people staring seriously into the plates. They had been playing "hit's of the 80's" real down low. And what hit are they playing? The Ramones, "I Wanna Be Sedated". Yep, America's greatest Punk Band.

You have to hand it to a Punk Rocker who say's one of his influences was The Beach Boy's.

Hey Ho let's Go!
