My name is Charles Stricklin

by Charles Stricklin on June 21, 2009

For future reference, and to prevent anyone from confusing me with another person, I state for the record that my name is Charles Stricklin, I am 49 years old and I live in Shreveport, Louisiana.

I am apparently somehow being confused with someone with my identical first and last name, including spelling, elsewhere in the United States. The other Charles Stricklin has asked me to alter the way I sign my name to include my middle initial. I have declined to do so, at least on a consistant basis.

I was given this name at my birth and, although I’ve answered to the nickname “Chuck” at various times throughout my life, I’ve always introduced myself as Charles Stricklin. To now change everything for the comfort of someone who shares my name but not my views seems… wierd and a hassle.

Steven Crowder

by Charles Stricklin on May 8, 2009

Steven Crowder is an aberration of comedy and American politics… He’s:

  1. Conservative (or at least kinda Libertarian)
  2. A comedian
  3. And funny

You seldom get a combination of two of those, much less three!

Yes, I know… I know! Ben Stein and Dennis Miller. I said “funny” not “acerbic” or “mildly amusing at times.”

No, Steven says things I only wish I’d thought of and said on a range of issue and makes mincemeat out of whiney little Liberal canards and talking points. Every Thursday he releases a new video on YouTube that will now be the first thing I view that day each week.
