About Me:: I am currently living the most significant phase of my life experience. Perhaps someday I will call this phase the “Manifesting Phase.” The phase of allowing actual physical people, places, and things to come into being. This phase began back in December of 2005, when I learned that I was going to be a father for the first time.

Prior to being a dad, I was an Army brat, living over half my life overseas by the time I entered the United States Military Academy in 1991. A fifth-generation West Point graduate, I served for six years as an infantry officer before resigning in 2001 to pursue a career in film and television.

I worked on several major Hollywood productions and spent about four years as a “writer” for reality TV in New York City. I conceived and produced a documentary film, as well as wrote an award-winning feature script about the Army’s first African American paratroopers.

Currently I continue to write and work on film projects, in addition to writing this blog. I also run a small distribution business and run sales and marketing for a company in the organic/natural products industry.

Issues I Care About:: war in Iraq

Why Does the Reverend Wright Scandal Matter?

Thanks for the debate. Justin's video of Robertson and Falwell could easily be a spoof on SNL without changing a single word of dialogue. I had a nice chuckle watching it. I guess the point I'd li... Continue

It's about a Army public affairs office publication called "Stand To", which recently included a link to a block which claims that Obama wants to surrender. Thought it was an interesting little news piece about politics and the military.

Hope all is well

Yeah, man, we're very happy with how the site is picking up. We gotta keep up the momentum. Just keeps getting better.

Hope all is well
