This blog is the result of middle aged man getting a glimpse of the future and realizing that he has not done enough for his children and his children's children - so that they may enjoy the personal liberty our founding fathers fought so hard, and sacrificed so much, to achieve. This blog is dedicated to the ideal put forth in the final line from the Declaration of Independence: "And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor."
