Introduction | Approaching middle age with not-so-quiet desperation, I find solace in my writing. I love trying to get people to think for themselves, thus I have a small but hardy band of friends who seem to tolerate me. My son and my dad are my best friends for we are most alike. And if ever God has bestowed gifts upon man, surely they have been the women in my life. |
Interests | Writing, Politics, Astronomy, Shed-building, Shed-finishing, Shed-party-throwing, Wine (Italian reds). |
Favorite movies | The Manchurian Candidate (the first one); Kelly's Heroes, Catch-22, Young Frankenstein, Nearly all the Monty Python movies, This Is Spinal Tap, MASH, Stairway To Heaven, Blazin Saddles, Old School, Mr. Mike's Mondo Video (soon-to-be cult classic) |
Favorite music | Classic Rock n Roll, Classic guitar music, Classical music, Big Band, Jazz and anything by Slim Whitman. |
Favorite books | All the Isaac Asimov science fiction novels and short stories, All the William F. Buckley Jr., Blackford Oakes spy novels, John LeCarre spy novels (Smiley's People is the best), H.L.
