I am a conservative, newlywed guy living in Selma, North Carolina with my wife, step-son, mother-in-law, two cats, three parakeets, one crazy dog named Daisy, and one goofball of a pup I call Slime Dog. I have a background in radio broadcasting, fire protection, and some technical/computer experience. I currently am employed as a Technical Services Coordinator at the world's largest media and entertainment company (company policy is that I should not mention the name).

I blog regularly at troylaplante.com. I also write a weekly column called LaPlante's Rants for my hometown newspaper, The Selma News in Selma, North Carolina. Each column gets published weekly in my LaPlante's Rants blog. You can also find me each week at The Patriots' Pub, where I am one of three panelists who discuss and teach early US history and The Constitution.
