Sorry I wasn't around previously. Armed forces committments, marriage, travel and in short, life's twists and turns distanced me from enjoying any fellowships.

I'm back. Divorced. Home owner. Retired. No pets no kids, and there's some plants and shrubs which likely won't make the fall.

I still have all my own hair. Most of my teeth. A bit of my brain survived, though not enough to give a piece of it to anyone else.

I've traveled nearly the whole globe, save for the Orient and Russia. Been on safari in Africa. Climbing volcanoes on islands in the Indian Ocean. rode a motor bike across country a few times. Became a professional gambler for a time. Pool player as well. Raced motorcycles too briefly. ran across both sides of acceptable and unacceptable behavior, and carry the scars which reprove it, both within and without.

the past eleven years or so, mylife has taken it's gbest turn. I enjoy a new freedom, and peace of mind often found in storybooks and tales of fantasy. I enjoy each and everyday now. Although I live in as modest a place as one could endure, I'm often happy. My needs are met, and I have people in my life I love and trust. What else is there to desire?
