reenactorNet

This would be the blog of one Marshall J. Wise or "Marsh" to my friends -- it's "Marshall" to the company or others who know me not. If you are friend, then 'tis Marsh. Anywho, this be just my thoughts and bloviations on life, reenacting, the world and other thoughtless provoking crap. Yes, I am a reenactor, yes, I own reenactor.Net... Remember: work to live, not live to work.

*(and yes, look up the word bloviate on google)

Hmmm, "about me" huh? It's kind of boring. I'm a truck driver hauling U.S. Mail for a Postal Contractor. Reenacting Lessee, I am into reenacting... WWI, WWII and Roman. Doing the first two, I portray a German (no, I don't care one bit if you're offended), in the last, I do a 1st Century Roman impression. I find the Roman Empire fascinating. r.Net I have owned reenactor.Net (the biggest reenactor website on the planet) since 1998 and am constantly trying to make it better (for that, I really need 37 hour days). One good thing about r.Net is it allows me to meet and know a lot of really great and nice people who's knowledge just leaves me floored. How I think... Do you really care about how I think? I'm kind of a dork... If you read the blog, you'll see how I think (or don't think, if you listen to a lot of people).

Snow? Dammit NO. It's only friggin' October.

Yes, I saw snow today. No, I was not amused. No, it wasn't sticking, but dammit, it's too early. I am only today reveling in getting my other car back from the shop after almost a WHOLE year. Yaaaaay! And it runs good too. Well, it does need some power steering fluid. So what. Not about to kill me like the other one.

So, anyway, stereo is not workign right either, but it's been so long since I was driving it (16 months) I forget how to use the overly-complicated stereo. Printed off the instructions again, so maybe I can get it. Have to register it tomorrow in PA. Ack, so much to do. Tied. Have to carry some of Wee's shit down and then take the beastii out for their evening constitutional. Speaking of constitutionals, I was listening to the satellite radio and am about fed up w/ frigging corrupt dickhead politicians who won't listen to us and keep trying to insert a public option thing in their health bill. What bullshit! How does a putz like Harry Reid get re-elected?

AND, I am told that idiot Arnold signed some bill so that when you buy gun ammo, you will have to fil out some kind of FFL paperwork. What a frigging ass-clown! He's not a republican, he's some kind of liberal hack. Just another Hollyweird ding-dong.

The Desolate World

Desolation, some people can't deal with it. Out West,t he world can be very desolate. To many, who no no better, it seems a horrible place, dry. barren. brown. But to some, to a few, it has a majesty found no where else. To see far away. To feel the world as a primitive place, stripped of it's camouflage. Stripped to the world. Sometimes I miss the desolation.
