About Dave
Hey All!
Welcome to my blog. Let’s start with promises:
- I won’t lie to you
- I am trying to make some income from this
- I will try and keep my posts short and to the point
- I won’t write about something I haven’t personally used
I’m just a normal guy that lives with my wife and 3 children in North Carolina. I grew up in Indiana, served in the Marines for 5 years, fixed MRI’s, and have worked in senior leadership and management in the medical device industry for a long time. I like basic things and lead a pretty awesome basic life. I don’t have expensive tastes. I like things that work (and are cool), food that tastes good and that I can cook myself if I tried, and clothing that fits my ever-fluctuating dadbod (I will absolutely buy the same shirt in all the colors if it fits me right, but only if “all the colors” are blue, grey, and black).
I occasionally curse too much, I like all the varieties of alcohol (Except tequila – do not try to convince me that your high-end tequila is good. I don’t want to hurt your feelings, but it’s garbage). I love grilled and smoked meats, exercise, Jesus, and figuring out how to not screw things up (badly). I over eat from October through February and then wonder why my shirts “shrink”. I make lots of random noises and sing songs at strange times…which my wife and kids say is annoying, but that I know they secretly love.
For all these reasons and more, you should check in periodically, read my posts, and make your life as basic as mine!
