Musings of an Old Man

Whatever this used to be about, it is now about my dying. I'll keep it up as long as I can and as much as I want to.

Name:
Location: Columbus, Ohio, United States

I'm a 69 years old white, male, 6'1", 290 lbs., partially balding in the back. I was married for ten years and fathered two children, a daughter and a son. My current marriage (2nd) will celebrate its 39th anniversary November 4. The date will be in the news because it was the same day as the Iranian hostages were taken at the US Embassy in Tehran. (Obviously, I had a better day than they did.) I'm a Vietnam Veteran ('71-'72). I have worked as a Computer Programmer, Project Manager, Graduate Teaching Associate, Technical Writer, and Web Developer. I own, with my wife, a house and a dog.

July 9, 2004

I do a lot of personal writing. I even have my own web site, one of those vanity sites that you get when you join an ISP. Mine is http://home.columbus.rr.com/murrell/. I decided I wanted a place to place my musings and ramblings about life, the universe, and everything.

A brief intro

I'm a married, white, middle-aged, middle-class male. In this world we all inhabit, I am privileged in being what I am, though being white and male was given to me, being middle-aged comes from not dying younger, and being middle-class has taken a lot of work and caused no small amount of turmoil in my world. As I figure this blogging program out, I'll add a picture.

I read a lot, and I have a lot of opinions about a lot of things: movies, war, television, what I read, sports: you name it; I'll probably address it over time in my writings here.
