Well I assume the thanks for the invite are to Drake. Ta much.
I study languages, and am fascinated by most political and military history.
I have taught catachism classes of children aged 12 to 14 ( volunteer basis for the parish, but it was a classroom)
I understand and speak many regional dialects of UK English.
If you want to annoy me or trap me in hours of research , just ask about that thing that keeps gettin away from you. And having worked in politics I would be glad to answer any practical ethical or philosophical questions..
I do have a primary responsability to a Football forum , and with the season well underway I cannot promise to check every day in here , but I will try .
Feel free to PM me, if I don't know something Iwill try to direct you to a usefull source.

Name: REDGallenger, but you can call me TJ if you really want to
Course/Educational Background: Just finished my first semester of my freshman year at Manchester College, I am double majoring in History and Economics. I also took our high school's "academic superbowl" social studies team to the state finals, and received a special recognition from the state legislature for excellence (in the form of a scholarship) in social studies, as well as being recognized countless times by my HS.
Specialization: My economics are more or less focused on Macropolicy, but I'm going to try to keep my Microstudies at least close to my proficiency in regards to Macropolicy. As far as History goes I have no specialization and I intend to get my BS in both Econ and History - but only go to grad school for history and then to teach at a university. I have no historical sepcialization because I view it as my duty to specialize in all of human history as a whole
Hobbies: Political Activism (due paying member and organizer for the Youth Communist League USA www.yclusa.org), philosophy (especially Marx, Engels, Lenin and those who followed in their footsteps - as well as the three component parts of Marxism, French Socialism (Saint-Simon, Blanqui, Fourrier, and Englishman Owen, and Moore), German Philosophy (Hegel, Kant, Feuerbach et al), and English Economics (Adam Smith, Malthus, and Ricardo), anything having to do with Marxism. I also enjoy studying German, Russian, and French. I likewise am taking up gun maintanence and collecting - I'm currently learning the ropes with my M44 Mosin Nagant. I also play guitar with preference towards rock in general but my true desire is grindcore and trash metal. Historical and economic research, writting - theory, stories, and poetry. Also my last hobby is of course making my wonderful fiance Ashten has happy as possible. I also love a good debate.
