  • My Cousin Ethan

    I just wanted to share something. Blizzard Maintenance is occurring again, so I thought I would write a little about my cousin once removed Ethan. He is currently away, doing his Annual Training. But we have managed to communicate a little bit. Especially about our shared love for QT. Ethan actually works at a QT, but myself I eat from there a lot. This is because of my schedule.

    I shared with him some footage of World of Warcraft. I just wondered if maybe he might be interested in it. I know, for one thing, it was his older brother, Samuel, who introduced me to Tolkien. So, I introduced Ethan to World of Warcraft.

    SPeaking of World of Warcraft footage, here is a video I made. It is of my Druid, in Westfall. If you pay attention, we made it to the dungeon known as Deadmines. Maybe it will entice you to give it a try as well! This is Classic by the way.

    In the video you can see some of the sights, like Stormwind. Westfall, and Moonbrook. Moonbrook is where the dungeon, Deadmines (VC, for Van Cleef) is located.

    Sounds like another storm is brewing. Yesterday night, we had a big storm roll through. I was personally, enjoying it. But my Dad had just come from the farm. I think he was wishing he had been able to get some more done out there. But he managed to fix up his red riding lawn mower, but he removed the deck from it, making it a little bit faster.

  • How I Almost Became A Communist

    How have your political views changed over time?

    It was the Spring of 2007. I had just discovered Political Crossfire, on the Internet. I was addicted to that website, man. Let me tell you, I found this YouTube of the 1967 Soviet Parade, on there. It was my SECOND Youtube. My first was Line Rider. Anyways, so I watched this, and read what the communists were saying, initially. I was hook, line, and sinker going for it.

    But I ended up falling in with the conservatives, because the liberals came out hard against Israel. They were always dissing on Israel, and they would blame the Jews for every little thing. Even 9/11! It had to stop. So, the conservatives banded together, to stop the leftist infiltrators. It was so fascinating. There were other big debates that ended up drawing me to the conservatives, where I felt my actual views were represented. That was the first time I was ever called a “bigot” or a “racist”. Imagine being called a racist by an “anti-semite” lol.
