About Me

So the average height for an American male over the age of 20 is 5'9" tall.  Brown is the runaway most common hair color for people in the US and blue eyes are actually the most common in US males as well.  I sometimes brush up a little too close to the average weight of an American male in my age bracket but I'm operating with a little bit of margin to the good on that.  I've sometimes opined that all of those factors combined to create one completely unremarkable person.  More now as I've gotten older, though, I've realized that perhaps the opposite is true and that maybe I might be the Averagest Guy in the World.

When you think about that, other than the immense amount of responsibility that accompanies that impressive title, it really opens up a world of possibilities.  Could it be that at some level I can relate to everyone because I am the embodiment of the very average to which every person contributes? Perhaps commonality is actually niche and I have some balance on some level with everyone...heck, I'm even a Libra!

So, with that as a backdrop, I really hope you can stop by here every once in awhile and perhaps find some balance of your own for a moment.  Perhaps find an article I've posted about something wonderful that makes you smile, or laugh, or tear up or even think a little bit differently.  There's a good chance that if you're here you know me personally and maybe something here will remind you of an exchange we had in the past and make you smile.  For whatever reason you stopped by, I hope you walk away maybe just a little bit happier than when you walked in.  If that's the case this was totally worth it for me.

Anything written here, unless otherwise noted, is representative of my opinion alone.  Anything here doesn't represent my family, the company for whom I work, my community or anyone else but me.  If I mention a name in a story or thought, it will be only after I've asked for their permission.  I'm writing this before I have basically any content created so who knows if I ever even publish this site, but ultimately I'd love for this to turn into an interactive place for my friends and my friends and friends of friends can share their thoughts with everyone here too.  Baby steps, though.  For now, thanks for stopping by and please don't be a stranger.
