| .about ----- I'm Rick, born and raised in Mulberry Canyon just a drop south from the wonderful place of Merkel, Texas. Small town, not too many people, and most have been lying to themselves for so long that they are starting to believe it. I'm quite sure by now that Merkel is one of the best places in the world if it weren't for the people; then again what more is there to Merkel than the people. Guess I'm just talking myself in circles. -- -- I am a Community Consultant with Zoints, and as of this time I have never found a more interesting place to work. I am surrounded by some of the most brilliant software engineers, strategic advisors, and just down-right happy people from the minute I log on to Zoints to the minute I leave. Working with Kris and Dave is always a blast, and I will never again see bigger debates over Hippos and Penguins. -- --Well it's been a while since I last updated my 'About me' section, and I've changed a bit since my last spill. I now live in Golden, CO where I attend the Colorado School of Mines, majoring in Petroleum Engineering. There are a lot of things I'd rather do, but it seems the oil field is just what I'm supposed to do. I'm sure when I'm more motivated I'll swing in and update this section a bit more in-depth, so just hang on until that happens. -- .quotations "Be enlightened. Obtain knowledge. Do as you’re told, but don’t be a pushover. Follow the law, and never be chased by it. If chased, run fast. Listen closely. Love with all you possess. Hate none, but know who is out to get you. Enjoy your last days with your friends, and look forward to seeing them again. Do not base hope on what you can see, but what you have yet to see. Darkness is not the enemy; it is merely uncovered territory for you to venture into. Loneliness is lonely, but happiness is not always happy. Love is full, and if empty a waste of time. Time is of the essence, but the best moments of your life will only last a minute. Tears are fuel for change, and no tear should fall twice for the same reason. " -Rick Barnes .comments
