ABOUT ME

All about me? I went to college now I'm doing a little adventuring in that fantastic crevice between college life and real life... I like college football & tequila, food, books, music, and people, libraries, cities, towns, villages, and nature, math & science, philosophy & politics, art, computers, internet, community, coffee, vegetables, and more.

Just finished riding my bicycle across the USA to raise money for ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) www.biketripforals.com.

PHILOSOPHY

Courage conquers all things; not all who wander are lost; the future belongs to those who perform; in the woods is perpetual youth; life is available only in the present moment.

Teach, Learn, Share

Be optimistic. Do a little even if you can't do a lot. Enjoy simple things. Remove yourself from where you are comfortable and you will begin to learn, begin to relate, and begin to understand.
