Considered by some to be the vagary of youthful social networking this 53-year-old continues to drop-in on favorite bloggers. He can be a radical nodal variant, political gadfly, cook (not ready to claim Chefdom just yet) and silly goof. Since he has no children he is inclined to be kind to animals.
For those who might think love can be found on this site, fear not, or fear less, because this blogger has no interest in such pursuits owing to his marriage of nine years (count’em nine) to the Little Woman, who by most law enforcement officials would be so warned as not to carry loaded and concealed firearms, especially the one with the silencer. This blogger has the necessary incentive mechanisms around him to keep his sad, sagging and otherwise wrinkled body parts intact.
When he is not a menace to his fellow digital nerds and geekified hoodlums he is tending to his flock of Rouen Mallards or at the range polishing his skeet shooting skills.
Yes, he drives a pick-up.
He loves to cook.
He plays blues guitar, slide guitar and classical guitar.
He looks like a nice guy…and largely he is.

Thank you for visiting my BLOG and leaving a comment about my work. I totally agree with you that schools should be teaching art and science together with shared importance. The core of both art and science is wonder after all. I have tried, when I have been given the opportunity in schools and at public presentations, to link art and science. We can only do what we can do, at least biting the bullet and doing it might just make some difference.
Wonder goes out the window at most schools!
I have enjoyed reading your BLOG. Laughed out loud in parts [the group guy thing!] and silently applauded your desire to search for yourself with the 4 year stint in therapy. You have a very engaging writing style.
Haven’t read this until now. You express yourself so well, which sounds SO condescending but is actually a lame compliment from someone less able to express herself so well.
I am a chicken enthusiast from way back but now I think I want a herd of Indian Runner Ducks. You heard me, HERD.
