About me:
What can someone say in 200 words or less ? I'm not one to describe myself. I would rather others find out for themselves. A wise Italian once said,
'there are two sides to every story and the truth is somewhere in between.'
Who I'd like to meet: Jesus Christ on the road to Emmaus, Wyatt Earp for a cup of coffee and good cigar. Frank Zappa, when his defenses were down. Paul McCartney, in the studio as he was recording Blackbird. Leonardo Da Vinchi, Robert De Niro, Lucky Luciano, Tommy LaSorda and Edgar Alan Poe.
We, at InterrupttheSilence. com, would like to thank you sincerely for adding us as a myspace friend!
The primary purpose for our website is to assist both believers and non-believers alike, should they have specific questions concerning the Bible, Christianity, or life.
"But from there you will seek the LORD your God and you will find Him, if you search after Him with all your heart and with all your soul." ~Deuteronomy 4:29

Ships were decked with red, white and blue bunting.
