About Me:
American by Birth
Texan by the Grace of God
Alright, First of all I have to say that I truly believe EVERYTHING happens for a reason. Every choice you've made in your life has led you to where you are today. A left turn 10 years ago instead of a right and you could be at a different place in life or you might even be a completely different person. Have different friends. A different job. A different LIFE. I am right where I'm supposed to be in life. I've met someone Amazing. Someone who means the world to me. Someone I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with. To start a family with. To grow old with. To Love every day. She means the world to me and I am grateful to have her in my life. She is My EVERYTHING!!!!! Now little about me. My name's Franklin (Yeah, like the Turtle..... See Picture Below..LoL). I'm from Corpus Christi, Texas. I've been all around the world, with the exception of South America and Africa and it has really made me miss the U.S., especially TEXAS, and realize there truly is No Place in the World like America. I'm currently working for International S.O.S. attached to an Explosives Ordinance Disposal Team. I'm in Iraq, or what most people would call Hell, working at Iraq's National Ammo Depot (Arlington Depot) and FOB Summerall (Where 82nd Airborne is located). I'm one of 3 Remote medics running a medical clinic. We're located just a little Northwest of Baghdad, pretty close to where Saddam Hussein is buried. A little more about me.... I joined the Army straight out of high school and served in Operations Desert Shield/Storm as a Combat Engineer. I served in Berlin, Germany with 42nd Engineer Co. I had by far some of the most fun of my life while stationed in Berlin. Getting in trouble is always fun though. If you're interested, ask me sometime about "The Czech Incident" and find out what kind of International Incident I caused crossing into the Czech Republic and getting detained with a couple of friends for 18 hours. I got into EMS after leaving the military. I worked as a Flight Medic for a Children's Hospital on the Transport Team for about 10 years. Ahhhhh, Memories...
I have a 9 year old son, Mason. He's a green belt in Tae Kwan Do and his nick-name is "The Steel Heel". Yeah, he's kind of a Bad Ass!!!! LoL.. He is my Pride and Joy and there's Nothing I wouldn't do for him.....
Something else that might be of interest is my dad. He's somewhat of a celebrity. He was in the movie Dazed and Confused.
He played the head football coach, Coach Conrad. He's the one all the guys were always bitching about and kept telling Randy to "Get his priorities straight and sign his commitment to his team."
Pretty F'ing cool isn't it. His newest movie, which was titled "Deat Meat" but has since been changed to Andre the Butcher is out at Bluckbuster right now so go check it out. He plays Sheriff Cooper and the title role of Andre is played by non other than RON JEREMY. (And no it's not a porno). You should check it out. You might think it's a bit corny but I think you'll still enjoy it.
Well, That's all I can think off right now...... So L8ers
