Defend your country. Any problem in the world can be solved with the careful application of high explosives. Speak softly but carry a small thermonuclear device. Somewhat absent minded IT pro, w/ a string of letters after my name (w00t!), proud pa of 2, drives a Buick. Quite simply, the Most Interesting Man in the World! Formality? Overrated. Own an Information Technologies company. Lectured in Classical Studies over 15 years. Write on Plato & Ancient Greek History. Published several papers in academic journals & Encyclopedias (passion). Even cited on Wikipedia (so I have that going for me). Offered papers at conferences throughout North America & Great Britain. Attended Cypress Creek High School (Houston, 1985), Texas A&M; relocated to Indiana (Summer 1988). Graduated from IU with Baccalaureates in Ancient Philosophy (minor Religious Studies [1993]); Ancient History (minor in Ancient Greek [1994]). Teke (Tau Kappa Epsilon). Graduated University of Cambridge (Darwin College, 1997) M.Phil, Greek History. Returned to IU. Pursue my doctorate (haphazardly) while running my IT company. Traveled extensively during my academic pursuits: Costa Rica, Columbia, Mexico, England (Ireland, Scotland), France, Germany, Italy (Rome/ Vatican City), but above all Greece. Visited Greece & the Greek isles many times (love it). Lived in England just shy of 2 yrs. Quite active in Masonry (esp. the Shrine). Write as much as possible (expository & creative). Teaching myself Russian (dated one for while, long story). Love to ballroom dance (for years. Meh, seriously, long before Dancing w/ the Stars). Enjoy both camping & to attend Black Tie events throughout the year. Live in Indianapolis with my daughter MacKenzie (a teenager now, may the gods show mercy) & my son MacKade (just like me [crap]). Most importantly, however, I should tell you -
***Ed: Umm ... excuse me, Chris?
Me: WHAT?!?
Ed: The President's calling.
Me: The president of what?
Ed: The President of The United States.
Me: Oh. Right. Guess I should take that ...
