More about me

When I was a teenager, I aspired to be a Hermit.  Get thru High School and head up into the tall Lonesome.

It would seem as though I have failed to achieve my vision.  Instead, I have been working, the last 30 years, at a Charcoal Factory. 

The saving grace is that I was borne a Philosopher.  Don't have the degrees to prove it - but many Philosophers are this way.  And unlike the hermit, I DO have some kind of 401K to sooth my ruminations. 

Now I look forward to reaching retirement just as I hoped to finish High School, 40 years before.  Hope my Vision is better realized THIS time.

(I've put a lot of effort into my LifePath.  Check it out.)
