Concerning Me

This blog is going to act as my way to keep my brain occupied while I am looking for a job, so I will use it to talk about things I like to talk about, politics, football, books, music, and food.
A little about me:
I am from Tennessee, and I have a Bachelors in History from The University of Tennessee in Knoxville. I am also a Second Degree Black Belt in Isshin-ryu Karate-do.
I am fairly well read, I will read books on any number of topic, and in multiple genres. My favorites are Science Fiction, History, Mystery, and Fantasy. With my favorite authors being: John Ringo, David Weber, S.M. Stirling, and Kathy Reichs.
My favorite football teams are, the Tennessee Titans and the UT Vols.
As far as my musical tastes go, I am pretty much a country fan, it's just that you're not libel to hear a lot of the bands I listen to on the radio in Tennessee. My favorite artists are; Cross Canadian Ragweed, Dierks Bentley, George Strait, Reckless Kelly, Pat Green, Gary Allen, Chris LeDoux, Brooks & Dunn, Micky and The Motorcars, and No Justice.
Politically speaking I am not a member of any political party. I am however a conservative, an I believe very strongly in my values, which you will read about in later posts.
As for food, I like to eat and I'm a decent cook, so I'll probably be sharing some of my recipes and opinions on food with you.
If there are any books you wonder if I have read that you want an opinion on, let me know, same thing with artist or cds. I also appreciate recommendations in the same categories.
