Since this is my first blog, I figured I'd give you, the reader, a brief description of myself. Sure, I'll eventually get to creating a profile on here, complete with a picture and maybe a witty quote, but for now, I'm just going to give you the basics about myself and this blog.
I grew up in the country between the small towns of Kinder and Oberlin, LA. Like any normal child, I went to school, did my best, went to college and then had my world crushed by reality. It turned out that a diploma hands you nothing more than the average headaches of most folks who didn't go to college or a technical school of some sort after getting out of high school. The only difference is that the ones who skipped out on university life had about a four year headstart on me. Well, I've caught up to everybody else as best as I can, and I now have an eight-to-five job at a decent company and I go home to a lovely wife and kids each evening.
I have a number of interests, all of which I'll address in this blog as life sees fit. My main interests include the Houston Astros, the New Orleans Saints, science fiction films and TV series (especially the wonderful Doctor Who, classic and new), all things Disney (thanks to my kids), Catholicism, and books on just about any subject.
I consider myself to be a conservative, although I'm probably a little more open to suggestions than many of my friends. I'll address politics once in awhile, but I don't really know enough about that particular subject to be spouting off about it as if I'm speaking the gospel truth.
I love Louisiana, my home state, and all of the problems that come with her. I'll definitely blog about the Pelican state whenever something of interest pops up. You can bet that sooner or later I'll be talking about Mardi Gras, alligators, crawfish, Cajun music, and the one thing I love ALMOST as much as my wife and kids: boudin.
I've been lucky enough to travel over much of these United States of America, and I'll mention my travels along the way. Other than Louisiana, my favorite places to check out include Texas, Alabama, Arizona, and Wyoming.
Please feel free to comment on anything I post. I might say something idiotic or incorrectly, and I'd appreciate a little constructive criticism or even some correction with references to back it up.
Well, that about sums me up. Not too exciting, hunh? I promise that future blogs will definitely ignite somebody's fire, be it about sports, religion, or otherwise.
Adios, muchachos.
