It’s a new year, a new direction, and a bright future. I have been married, earned more pride from the Marine Corps, reconnected with close family and friends, have a determined and busy future in college (to finish for real this time), and have a plan to keep it all going strong for as long as possible.

I was searching around the internet for I just could not convey the feelings I had by just words for my dear old friend. So I think this encapsulates it perfectly.
It was a new sort of idea. An ensemble punk group working with nothing but acoustic instruments so that ‘they could still play even in a blackout.’ The band started with Jughead Pierson, lead guitarist from the long-term pop-punk band Screeching Weasel. After the demise of the iconic band, Jughead went to relax in Italy where he wrote the song “Missing Manifesto”.

I truly love my sweet prescious girl. That is all I have to say tonight as I fall to sleep. Goodnight all.
Welcome to Axiom, the new website for understandable facts from our point of view. The title of the article refers to the first article I ever wrote for my high school paper where I wrote about the emerging popularity of alternative music in the days of Woodstock II. We are trying to tap back into that stream to open ourselves up to what is new and good in today’s entertainment. In the coming weeks we will be starting up our blog reel with what we care about most, and if you care, go on and subscribe to us too. It’s hard to tell where we will be starting so come on back to see where we have gone.
