OK sorry I'm late with this, I don't spend all day here you know.
#1 What do you do for a living?
I work for the Department of the Army and I work part time at a gym. I go to school at night; my major is English.
#2 What's the most amazing/disgusting/life changing thing you've ever seen?
For years, a close friend of mine told me he was something that he was not. I investigated his past and when I found out he'd been lying to me all that time about who he was and what he did, I cut off all contact with him. I trust people far less these days.
#3 What is your most prized possession and why?
Nothing I own has sentimental value. All of it can be replaced.
The coolest thing I own . . . a Benelli Super 90 M1 Tactical semi-automatic shotgun.
#4 Who is your idol?
John Brown, the abolitionist.
He waged guerrilla warfare against slave holders in Kansas. He then attacked an arsenal in Harper's Ferry to steal weapons; the attack failed and he was hung for treason, but he became a martyr and his execution probably led directly to the civil war.
#5 What is your biggest regret in life?
When I was on active duty in the army, I had a chance to go to a Ranger battalion. I've always wondered how well I'd have done there. That's the kind of thing you can only do when you're young.
