Chronicles of a Late-Blooming Child Prodigy

I'm an unrelenting aficionado of Chess, Toastmasters and acoustic music (Celtic and Bluegrass--Turquoisegrass?). Audio and Video Blogging gives my visitors a chance to hear and see my triumvirate of interests in action. Cheers! --GT

Location: Olympia, Washington, United States

My recurring illusions of grandeur: (1) winning a state-level chess tournament, (2) winning the World Championship of Public Speaking, and (3) playing Flight of the Bumblebee on the guitar at the Annual Flatpicking Championship in Winfield, Kansas. Until then, I'll relish all three pursuits with the enthusiasm and fearlessness of a late-blooming child prodigy. :)

Hackworth Fire For Effect

It must be nice to retire and open up with both barrels on such things as the
Jessica Lynch debacle. Big Roger, bubba. We have a bad habit nowadays of making heros/heroines out of victims. It's truly unfortunate what happened to PFC Lynch's convoy, but it was the culmination of a tragic series of errors. Recognize it for what it was, and don't spin it into something it wasn't.
