    Always reminds me of Travis Dane in Under Siege 2: Dark Territory

    Every time I try a DIY project, it takes me 2 or 3 times as long as it should and it usually needs redone. I imagine it must be hilarious to watch.

    I love the poetry and richness of the Old King James Bible...no other translation has the same tone. My sig quote carries multiple meanings (for proof texting fans) and you have to think a bit to fathom the actual intent.

    The second one is a take off from Monte Python Holy Grail (the wizard's name) and my actual name.

    There has seldom been a time in my 55 years that I have not had a dog.
    They greet me everyday like I've been gone for a year.
    They get so excited when I tell them we're going for a walk.
    They love to hang out with me as much as I do with them.
    My sig pretty much sums it up.
    He is your friend, your companion, your defender... he is your dog. You are his life, his leader, and master. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of that devotion.

    Lines 2-3 - Disclosures
    Line 4 - SOF attitude I picked up at my last assignment...particularly relevant now that we've found a hay-colored needle in a haystack.

    Mine is just a fav Bible verse about the entire creation waiting ( groaning for) the better things to come. I felt particularly aware of the "groaning" of the creation last week during the tornadoes!
