Your Mileage May Vary
We are made up of our life experiences, good, bad, and otherwise. Character is built upon what you do with them.
While the past is passed, the experiences we have along the way can majorly shape who we are.
Things happen to everyone. Life happens, though how it happens is unique for each of us.
I named my blog website The Ramblings of the Titanium Don. Why? Two reasons.
The first is my involvement in a certain worldwide medieval reenactment society. Over the course of the 27 years I have been participating there, one of my greatest loves has been medieval rapier combat — i.e. fencing. I managed to get good enough that I earned a rank within the group that allowed me to take the title of “Don.”
The second is a longer story. I am partially made out of titanium. Hence, the Titanium Don.
Why am I made partially out of titanium? Allow me to explain.
Some days are REALLY not like other days
On November 30, 1999, I had to go out to mail some bills. The post office was a whopping quarter-mile from my apartment. I decided to get some exercise and walked.
I have no recollection whatsoever of this.
