Lmao…. well, one of my big heroes when I was like 12 or 13 was the character of Zack Morris from the TV show Saved By The Bell. I just wanted to BE Zack. He was the coolest kid at his fictional high school. Popular, good looking, great hair (for the time), and never taking life too seriously.

Nowadays, I can hardly find any clips of him that aren’t from this expansive Funny Or Die series called “Zack Morris Is Trash”, lmfao, which re-tells the episode story lines in a more realistic way, where Zack is a horrible, horrible friend and person in general….

…. instead of the show’s usual tenor where the jig would finally be up, and his friends or principal would be like “wait a minute…. ZAAAAAACK…🤨🤨🤨”, and there’d be a moment where everyone is mad, but it’s usually “welp…. that’s our Zack, lolololol”

So my adolescent hero has been well torn down by now😂

My parents were fanatical democrats who often criticized president regan for... stuff they didn't like but...

Had no good reason! They complained how he was cutting funding for stuff and later complained the "big 3 trillion " (1/11th of biden debt) national debt... if so AGREE to cut funding! Less spending.

So their hate backfired so regan rnc became my role model. Small government and less spending which is the main COMMON ground in the variety of rnc politicians.

Other than my parents, I had an older cousin who was like a combination other father and older brother to me. I spent a few summers living with him and his family. He was an engineer, and is the main reason why I became one.
