Introduction I am educated, but not educated in a formal sense. I did not go to an institute of higher learning as I grew up poor. I found out though at a young age that I was fixated on learning, which came from my mother. I read, I quantify, I analyze and I define everything around me. I know a lot about a little and a little about a lot. I have found that everything can be encapsulated in one way or another with the exception of human beings. That is my quest and that is what I am seeking guidance on. You readers are human beings.......what makes you tick?
Interests The things that bind us as a species. The inner machinations of the mind that force us to struggle over good versus evil. The ability of the human mind to reach for the heavens and yet for others to reach for the remote control and slather our minds in drivel.
Favorite Movies Casablanca, Fallen, The Godfather parts one and two
Favorite Music Anything that requires discipline. If you rhyme words or make up words so that the lyrics will rhyme while someone is playing a soundtrack in the background that was made by the same people who write the background music for porn I am not interested. Sorry Disco and Sorry Rap. Hello anything from Bach or Sergei Rachmaninov through the end of the 60's.
Favorite Books Into Thin Air (Everest Expidition), The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich (Hitler). Pirate Hunter the true story of Captain Kidd, The Westies (The Irish Mob in Hells Kitchen New York), Abondon Ship (Saga of the U.S.S. Indianapolis, Vlad the Impaler the real count dracula and I just finished Genghis Khan and the making of the Modern World. The last two speak for themselves.

Do you believe that forks are evolved from spoons?

The spoon was invented first. Then people getting tired of knife fights over meat on a spit invented forks because forks could not stab as far into the chest cavity as knives.
