| Introduction | North Dakota born. Can anything good come out of NOrth Dakota? Sure! Yours truly! Philosopher. Self-taught English major; if you are not communicating meaningfully with at least one person, you may as well be dead! |
| Interests | Purposeful existence. Writing. Meditating (a brainstorm for one) Music. Walks. Talks. Working to reestablish the idea of dialogue in society. Contrary to popular trends, diatribe and ad hominum are not really effective communication tools. However, if you want to promote a particular propaganda, that's a different story. Campaigning for life. It's important, so everybody must at least love their own existence, or we will be in a terrible mess! |

| Favorite Music | J.S. Bach's; he still rocks! His attitude for the creation of it says it all! He'd pray, "Jesus help me" at the start of each new composition. When completed to his satisfaction, he declared in print, Soli Deo Gloria (S.D.G.) To God alone be the glory! No ego problem their. His prodigious output as a composer is forever renowned! |
| Favorite Books | The Road Less Traveled by M. Scott Peck First line, chapter 1: "Life is difficult" Are you ready to go to school? Norwegian-American author, Ole Edvard Rolvaag's trilogy: Giants In the Earth: Peder Victorious: Their Father's God. Exceptional presentation of a Norwegian immigrant family's attempt to work out the newcomers' paradigm: survive, assimilate, enjoy! |
The purpose of existence? To love life! Assign it a high value and make it exceptional in every way!
