Howdy peeps,
Just got in from being out of town for the weekend; I'm about to start filling in my character's bio; should be ready by tonight.
Just a preview: Jesse Graham is from west Texas, and will be perhaps the 24th century's last cowboy. His family has been ranchers for generations, and in fact still runs one. He grew up doing all the things ranchers have done for generations, as his family prides itself on upholding tradition: herding cattle, spending more time on horseback than not, living off the land, getting satisfaction from the great outdoors, and living by the cowboy's code of honor and ethics.
It's perhaps his love of the outdoors that drew his attention to the stars from early on, and while he eventually went to Starfleet Academy, graduated at the top of his class, and has so far had a distinguished career in Starfleet, he's still a cowboy at heart.
I think he will be a unique addition to the crew, and I look forward to his interactions with all of you.
Anxiously anticipating those two awesome words...GAME ON.
