Life is to be lived, not controlled, and humanity is won by continuing to play in face of certain defeat.
I'm fascinated with worlds where there's a small population left, whether it's a movie or these TV shows that fascinate me - 'Falling Skies' or 'The Walking Dead' - they are about survival and triumphing over difficult times. I just have a thing for 'em.
I threw a lot of balls and walked a lot of batters. Not something I'm proud of, but something I learned from.
