AAAAAGH, HISTORY!

OK, so you guessed it, I'm not a history buff. To be completely honest, most of the time I absolutely dispise history courses. I have had my few exceptions, though. I have found when I can actually relate my history to life, I enjoy it much more. For example, I was born and raised in a small town called Fairview, MT. In the 8th grade, I was forced to take Montana History and absolutely loved it. The teacher was energetic, told stories, and made what was a boring subject to me very entertaining. After Graduation, I spent six years in the Army and returned to school at Williston, ND. There, I enrolled in North Dakota history where the instructer was not nearly as entertaining but I still found the course fascinating. Now, to continue the trait, I have enrolled in this class hoping I will be just as intrigued. Maybe in my old age, I have started liking history... maybe not, too. Before I sign out, I just want to leave you with one more piece of information. I like to joke around and if I offend you, I am sorry, I really try not to. I hope I didn't offend you, Matt, and if I did, please tell me and I will stop.
