I'm back, finally!

Welcome back!

I know it's been a while since I updated this space, but I've been busy, what with work, family and the election. Yes, Obama is the president-elect ..... a least for now.

Tell you a little about me .......

Male, libertarian-leaning, former Marine, Christian ....... that about sums it up. Married, two kids ...... happy. Can't get much better than that, unless I win the lottery.

I'm currently following Voxiversity II (see Vox Day's site) .... we're studying Murray Rothbard's study of the Great Depression. Rothbard is an Austrian economist, and it's pretty interesting. There's a reading assignment every week, followed by a quiz on Saturday (I'm holding on to an 80 avg). I'm learning a lot, even though it's fairly high-level theory (and despite never having taken economics).

Politically, I lean heavily towards the libertarians. Worked on Bill Frist's first campaign, and Sundquist's too. Became disillusioned with Republicans (Democrats, too), and have pretty consistently voted Libertarian in the last 3 or 4 elections. But don't expect any deep analysis of the political scene ..... I leave that to Vox, Hotair and Ace! And, yeah .... I'm disappointed that Obama won, and not just a little concerned.

Enough for now ..... got to get ready for Sunday dinner.

Later ........
