My blogs
| Industry | Consulting |
|---|---|
| Occupation | Retired. There was a time when I consulted with others. Now, I mostly consult with myself. I worked a part-time job at a wholesaler before the covid-19 "response" put them out of business. |
| Location | Ohio, United States |
| Interests | Writing. I just finished a novel, "The Pirate's Trust." |
| Favorite Movies | The original Star Wars, the original Alien, the original Blade Runner, the original Ghost Busters -- in fact, most films that are original. |
| Favorite Music | Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, Schubert's Ninth Symphony, Dvorak's Ninth Symphony and Mahler's Ninth Symphony -- in fact, most symphonies that are ninth. |
| Favorite Books | Paradise Lost, The Divine Comedy (not a lot of laughs), The Catechism of the Catholic Church (The Baltimore Catechism -- I had to memorize that one), Great Expectations, David Copperfield, Huckleberry Finn, Democracy in America, some of Shakespeare's plays, some of Plutarch's Lives, and most of the other stuff I was forced to read. Unforced? The Gulag Archipelago, Lord of the Rings, The Wealth of Nations, the Lanny Budd series (Upton Sinclair), "Capitalism, Socialism, and Democracy" (Schumpeter), and lots more. |
Your people want to make a statue in your honor. What will it be made out of and what victory will it commemorate?
The statue shall be made of Unobtainium. It will commemorate the obtaining of enough unobtainable Unobtainium to build the statue, and, while I did not obtain the unobtainable Unobtainium, it was my idea and I devoted all my people's resources to achieving that end. Now, we need to find an unobtainable chisel for carving the Unobtainium and build a heavy pedestal so it won't float into space.
