Oh the irony!!!!
Okay, so I'm a former Marine and a convicted felon....in my twenties, I would have bet large sums of money I could have drank any of you under the table. So it sounds like I'm supposed to be some tough guy, huh?

Well guess what I'm doing right now?

I'm reading a book (Howard Zinn) and listening to Anita Baker - completely sober.

HA!!

And my hobby is that I fix other people's computers for free because I like to do it. - HA!!!

I am a living dichotomy. I'd just thought I'd share the irony with you.

-BTW, Anita Baker's new cd is really good.

1. There's no such thing as a "former" Marine...
...they didn't say Semper Fi for nothing, yo.

2. Well
I'm a ninth-generation Texan, Aggie, Christian, veteran's wife, white, suburban soccer mom, gun-owning HUGE LIBERAL.

And always have been. My very existence pisses conservatives off no end. I love it. I fit almost EVERY single stereotype of the classic conservative but I'd rather cut my hand off than join them.

And my big ol' liberal veteran husband drives a Ford F-150 pickup, loves to fish, and GLBT rights is one of his biggest issues he fights for (really for both of us).

I am truly a living dichotomy if you go by stereotypes.

Isn't it FUN????

3. I know the feeling
I'm a fan of NASCAR and pro wrestling, the two most stereotypically freeper-infested activites, yet I'm the most liberal person I know.
