Will the real Slim Shady please stand up?

Filed under: Personal — Brian Reese @ 10/22/2005 @ 12:37 AM

It seems there are some other Brian Reeses out there. I have been contacted by at least two of them. Apparently I’m giving one in Michigan a bad name. So any of you who know the dude in MI, I’m not the same guy. I don’t live in MI or claim to be a pre-law student.

So, who am I?

Well, if you look through my other posts, you’ll find I believe in God and that he loves his creation. You will find that I believe that from the beginning we as mankind have a sinful nature (we desire to live life our way and get what we want out of it) that separates us from God. I believe God sent Jesus to live a human life and suffer death in our place as a provision for our sinful nature. Because of this, our relationship to God can be restored. The only way our fellowship with God can be restored is if we chose to accept God’s gift of salvation through his Son, Jesus Christ. The following Web site states this a little more clearly: www.greatcom.org

By day, I am an application developer. I’m working on specializing in Web application development. I’ve done a couple ASP.net projects in the past and am working on obtaining a Microsoft certification.

In my spare time, I like to ride my bicycle and am currently training to do several long distance rides in Florida. I also like to take pictures and maintain this little Web site.

If reading about my interests entertains you, then keep coming back. Feel free to post comments too. Otherwise, don’t give all the other guys with my name a hard time, I’m only one person.

    Wait…err… how are you giving the other one a bad name? You’re a good guy… IM me, huh? I am confused! I wonder if some “John Smith”s hate the other ones… It must be weird to share a name… But people should always keep watch on the internet that the name they’ve Google searched is actually the right person… Ahh… I digress…

    Kudos for keeping my post up… I am very impressed. I came back because I just this second remembered that I had posted something here awhile back and I wanted to see what become of it. I should add that my original comment was the first, and this is the last, post I have ever made online. (Alcohol is funny like that…) Normally I would leave the situation as is, but you handled it so well that I feel I need to respond. While I don’t find your posts to be particularly enlightening or in any way relevent to real life, the way you handled yourself was very admirable… and that speaks to your character. So while I still hold to many of my statements, I feel that you deserve to know that I handled it badly and I apologize. I’m proud to have another Brian Reese out there with firm convictions and the muturity to defend them respectfuly.

    My best friend of 26 years past away a year ago. His name was also Brian Reese. Don’t worry about others perception of you. Vanity is a horrible trait most of society has.
