Website history.

My website originally began as NightLord.com, back in 1998. Back then, it was just a hobby to pass the time, a place to post random ideas I had, and the ability to have my very own email address with my very own domain. I also began working on a game concept for an online role-playing game, which I’ll upload to this site at some point. At any rate, in 2008 I decided to become a bit more serious about my online writing habits. I began moving my work over to this domain, and re-writing everything with a bit more “professional” flair. It was a tedious process, since the majority of my old website code was embarassingly out-of-date, and I stayed rather busy, what with serving my country and all. Then, near the end of 2009, I had a serious hard-drive malfunction and lost all of my work… just as I was destroying my website to start over with a CMS (Content Management System: WordPress, Drupal, or Joomla- I hadn’t decided yet).

And so, here we are. I have obviously chosen WordPress as my CMS of choice, and begun writing in earnest. I plan to use this website to speak out on behalf of our Freedoms, speak against those who would take them away or deny them, and do my best to ensure that everything I post is backed with common sense and logic. I will be posting personal opinions on various topics, advice articles on a multitude of subjects, movie reviews for those inclined to read my personal preferences in cinema, and perhaps a short story or two which I occasionally find time to write. Some of my topics will be tongue-in-cheek, some deadly serious, while my videos will channel my inner-child. Regardless, I can only hope you find this website to be useful and entertaining. And, above all else, understand that I’m just a guy trying to speak his mind and make sure everyone else can, too.
