I know what you’re thinking, “great, another blogger taking up internet space with mindless dribble about things he thinks are important.” I used to liken bloggers to the box elder bugs that come out in mass on a warm day, fascinating, but for the most part, useless. As I started reading certain blogs, I found some that are great reads, some that are amusing, and some that allow interesting discussion and interaction. For those who know me, the title doesn’t come as a great suprise. I tend to live life with passion and for most of my 43 years have had the propensity for blurting out my opinion (I am trying to learn to read BEFORE hitting return). I tend to jump off the deep end, all or nothing, go big or go home, if you know what I mean. I am a born again Christian who loves his wife and kids and would rather be at church than doing pretty much anything. I am an MD, nephrologist/critical care specialist in Sioux Falls SD. I think I want to be a doctor when I grow up (drives my wife crazy when I say that!) but still don’t know for sure (according to my wife, in the almost 23 years we have been married, I have been or going to be a policeman, fireman, pilot, ATF agent, FBI agent, golf pro, teacher, rock star and chef just to name a few. I thought I would like to be a cage fighter but the allergy to pain kind of threw a monkey wrench in that one). Hopefully this blog will explore all aspects of life and not attempt to be so deep to be useless and ecourage some interesting debate. If not, as my wife says, it’ll give me a place to ramble.
