My name is Pete,but you may call me Simkin if you like...memorize it so as not to feel awkward later....
I'm open,honest,funny,awesome,capable and smart. Don't forget these,either.
I'm kind of in a hard spot to participate in this town as a productive member of society,but bear with me.
I'm new...this does not equal stupid...any hazing or put downs will be seen as a hostile act and will be met with an equally snide comment.
Keep these things in mind and we'l get along fine.
Feel free to share stories with me,for i have a few you may enjoy.

Recent info:Death has reared it's ugly head and darkened my day...the lives of three comerades were taken by cowards who didn't even have the decency to be on site for their demise...Remember the fallen.
 
For Americans:If you are reading this,thank a teacher...If you're reading it in English,thank a soldier.

Nugget of wisdom:A Failure will not appear till the unit has passed it's final inspection;-)

Nugget of wisdom:Any instrument dropped will roll under the least conveinient cover;-)

I realize that my profile is not very informative...
Basic Info:I am an American soldier in Iraq.Yes,I've killed people.No,it doesn't bother me.How can i say that? If i had not killed them,then i would be dead and that's just not convenient for me,as I have stuff i have to do.

When I'm not defending my country(?) I'm an avid theatre goer,a fencer,an actor,a techie(Techies run the theatre industry,I don't care what preformers might say)I sing for my band(Opposing Force[OPFOR]) and i smoke and drink in terrible excess.
I also dabble a bit in writing,and when I get around to it,I'll write a few short stories for you enjoyment.
 I may come off as sort of a bitter little man judging from my profile,but,I assure you,I'm not.I'm a very happy person with an odd sense of humor.I revel in making others smile and am not above self depcrecating humor to achieve this end.

I enjoy most music,but I'm partial to metal,industrial,showtunes and the soothing sounds of the Insane Clown Posse.

**************************************

 Wow...it's been more than a year since I've been to my little summer home here in Elf Town...I've had quite a few interesting adventures in the interim,I assure you...Some good,most bad and a few abysmal.

Now that I'm back in the states and leaving the service,I'll have a bit more time on my hands to sit back in relax in this wonderful little nook I've carved for myself...*sigh* relaxation...man's best friend.

  All this being said,enjoy your stay in my snug little house.You are welcome to stop by at any time.But,please...don't track mud in...I just swept.
