| Introduction | Thanks to the deft writing of Wil Wheaton of WWdN fame (and other locales), I've realized that I am not a washed up Security Engineer with delusions of grandeur (at 50-something). Since returning to college at 43, I've rediscovered my love of learning. Which explains my love of the SCA (http://www.sca.org). Which subsequently explains my joy in putting on armor and whacking the living shit out of people (or poking them with steel). However, I haven't yet figured out why I have an interest in Politics. Maybe its to give me an outlet for my whacking. |
