Stand By Me – Playing for Change
Wednesday, April 29th, 2009Harder than I thought.
Thursday, February 5th, 2009Picking a first post has been pretty difficult. There are so many things going on that I could talk about. I suppose I will pick one soon so worry not. In the meantime, here is a quote from a recent email between a friend and myself.
“Information is awesome. Misinformation is dangerous. Ever since Al Gore
created the Internet, people have been able to go online and post “facts”
without any thing to back it up. If you repeat something enough, it becomes
“common knowledge.” This happens much faster when people with some
credibility stand up and cheer for a cause”
So I will do my best to get all the good information I can before express my opinion.

Where do I start?
Monday, February 2nd, 2009
Good morning,
Like always, there are a lot of things going on in this world. There are things that are good, bad and things that are quite subjective. Over the next few days, I will decide where to start. Feel free to leave suggestions if there is something you would like to talk about or discuss. I am more than willing to hear your opinion on various subjects. Perhaps we can get into a deeper discussion as to why we view things the way we do. I hope to have something to share soon.

FIRST!!!!
Wednesday, January 28th, 2009Welcome to my blog.
My name is Travis and I’d like to welcome you to my small contribution to the world. I am getting closer to my midlife crisis than I’d like and I am a Caucasian male. I grew up in a rural Mississippi town. I attended a Southern Baptist church until I went to college. I now currently attend a Presbyterian church. I currently live in Alabama (USA). I am married and have two dogs. (Hello Evey and Harper.) I share this information because I want to give you a better understanding of my background and history.
It seems that everyone has a blog these days. These blogs encompass everything from the different types of alphabet soup to the governmental affairs of Zimbabwe. The purpose of this blog is to give me the opportunity to share my political, religious and other beliefs to those outside my circle of friends. I am at the point where I feel my single vote isn’t loud enough in this noise filled world. I am tired of being a part of the silent majority. I hope to express my views in a manner that is both clear and constructive. I don’t believe I have all the answers to many of today’s questions or challenges. The goal of this blog is to voice my opinion and ask for feedback. If I am wrong, feel free to share why you feel that way. All I ask is, along with your opinions, that you bring facts to the discussion. I will do my best to do the same.
Some blogs are updated daily, while others are left stagnant for months. This blog will probably be somewhere in the middle. The more you become involved, the more active this site will be.
One last thing: Please keep the conversation civil. Due to spammers, I will filter comments. If I deem a comment as inappropriate or non-constructive, I will not post them. I doubt this will even be a problem, but I felt it only fair to be transparent about my commenting policy.
Thanks for reading. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to share my views and beliefs. I look forward to hearing what you have to say.
Travis
