OK, here goes:

I am a 43 year old father of five. I spent 10 years as a firefighter/paramedic before being medically retired because of an air conditioning unit which collapsed through a ceiling on me while fighting a fire. I am married (sorry Helene) and live in Fort Worth, Texas. I am an emergency room nurse in a level II trauma center. I enjoy watching my daughter play softball, hunting, and discussing politics.

Politically, I am very conservative. I tend to follow the views of Ayn Rand, although I believe her religious views were terribly misguided. I believe that our American Constitution is almost sacred and I find infuriating those in power who disregard it. (It seems that being infuriated is becoming a full-time job.)

After being injured, I decided to go back to college for my degree, majoring in Biology, with a minor in Nursing. I used to believe I had an uncanny amount of knowledge about the biological/physiological aspect of the development of a new life before actually studying Biology in depth. After becoming educated in the subject, my view on abortion changed dramatically.

I'm not so much what you'd call cute; I guess I'm just a regular looking guy. My wife likes me, so that's cute enough, I reckon.
