About me

Gender Male
Occupation Skilled Bullshitter
Location Galveston Island, Near Texas, U.S. Outlying Islands
Introduction A complex person with a variety of tastes who is compulsive and extremist, hilarious, exceptionally bright, loyal and perceptive. I have an incredibly good memory, as did most in my father's family...but I think it's fading a little. I'm married to the girl I met when I was 19 and she was 18. I can still remember the first time I saw her and she smiled back at me...
Interests The outdoors, my wife and family, movies, obscure knowledges, writing, people and places and all history.
Favorite Movies Being There with Peter Sellers, The Wind and the Lion with Sean Connery. Some Like it Hot with Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon, Jeremiah Johnson with Redford, The Godfather 1&2, "61" about Mickey Mantle and Roger Marris by Billy Crystal, My Little Chickadee with WC Fields, Coconuts with the Marx Brothers and too many more to list...not much of recent film, though.
Favorite Music Everything from opera to rap...
Favorite Books The Sirens of Titan and anything by Vonnegut, any Louis La'Mour story, any of Kinky Friedman's books or stories, anything by Mark Twain. I prefer reading actual text to novels these days, as in history narrtives, etc. I prefer short stories or articles these days. As I've grown older, I no longer have patience with books where I'm forced to learn someone else's mystic answers.
