Introduction | I have a BA in religion, (previous life)and am a member of Mensa. I have been growing bonsai for ten years, and got really serious several years ago when I met Boon Manakitivipart. I have been studying under him, compressing a three year course of study into 5 years. I am married to Rhonda (2nd for both) and have two grown children. Andrew lives with his mom and attends college in Tennessee, and Martha (and her husband) are proudly serving the US Army. Politically, I am a Capitalist. Philosophically, I am an Objectivist.
