About Me
I have spent the better portion of my adult life serving in the United States military. I began my career in the Army, and later moved over to the Air Force. After a training mishap rendered me unfit for duty, I returned to the civilian world and began devoting my efforts to writing full-time.
I spend most of my time writing opinion articles on my website (http://richardmccord.com), but upon occasion will bring helpful tidbits to Bright Hub to share with the community. It should be noted that the two are mutually exclusive: opinions which I write for my website do not represent the views of Bright Hub, nor does Bright Hub ever commission (pay) me to express a particular view.
I possess a firm grasp of computer technology- from security, to hardware, to gaming.
My Experience
U.S. Army: 5 years
U.S. Air Force: 9 Years
Computer Geek: Born with a keyboard.
Opinionated Jerk: Since the day I could say, "French Fries" with great disdain.
