Introduction Father of two daughters and a son (all with the same woman, thank you), grandfather of four boys. A son, a brother, a friend, a lover. A researcher, a musician, a sportsman, an aspiring writer... When I took medieval history way back in the 10th grade, I became fascinated with Renaissance era, and the term "renaissance man" which came from it: men who were expert in the arts, sciences, literature, mathematics, astronomy, religion...so I decided to make becoming a modern day version of a renaissance man my personal quest...of course, without the talent AND the work ethic, someone who could be a renaissance man might end up as a "Jack of all trades, and master of none" at best, and an unfocused underachiever at worst...which am I? I don't know, I suppose it depends on who you ask...
