Dack seems to be coming along nicely. For those of you who do not know about Dack, Dack is the combination of Dave and Jack. "Jack" is something of a joke among my friends. A couple years ago I went camping with two friends of mine and in the time we spent up in the mountains, my friends discovered that I am very um...interesting. This was the personality that I generally hide in public, the real me, essentially. At the time, I came up with the name "Jack" for my more exciting personality that I usually hide. It's three parts Han Solo, two parts Indiana Jones, with a bit of Jack Sparrow thrown in for flavor all in a Dave-shaped container. Now, this third part, "Jack Sparrow", came about after the movie Pirates of the Caribbean, but I did come up with the name "Jack" long before that movie.
And so, recently, I've been getting tired of being boring old Dave, the aloof, quiet, patient shell I keep "Jack" hidden in. So, I'm going through the process of bringing out more of "Jack", though I don't want to lose the virtuous "Dave", I have decided to attempt a merging of the two.

All this is a fancy way of saying that I'm gonna try to be more outgoing. I could have said just that, but I wanted to give the history of the thing. I figure most of the people who read this blog care about me, so they should know what's going on.

On Saturday I think I did well with this. I went down to Fresno to Mazzei flying service to ask about flight school, and I think I came across fairly well.

God is good. All the time. There aint nobody better!
