ABOUT ME

People are amazing and experiences are invaluable. There is virtue in everything. If you do not agree then you are simply not looking close enough. We are all a product of trial-and-error and everything is cyclical. Humility is under appreciated, fame is overvalued, politics is corrupt, peace will not prevail, greed is GOOD, glengarry glennross, a nuclear Persia, a nuclear Isreal, nuclear family, the evaporation of the middle class, corporate malfeasance, big brother, apple is no longer cool, and no one reads Hemingway anymore -- but I cannot help but still look forward to the experiences that lay ahead. I greet them with a smile on my face, mustache on my lip, and preferably a beer in my hand.

PHILOSOPHY

There's nothing much to it, really, but I can't believe how most of society seems to not understand it. There is no use in getting upset. There is no use in complaints. There is no use in regrets. There is only one thing you can count on -- and that's tomorrow. But will it be any better? Always -- if you are willing to make it so.

Oh and, one other thing: a gentlemen is free to do anything he pleases, so long as he does it with style.
