Simply Squirrel

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me



I joined Myspace to reconnect with old friends from my hometown of Norfolk, Virginia (MAP) . Have had only a little luck in doing so (apparently I am the only one from long ago that became a computer nerd). Here for friends (old and new), to find good eats, good times, shared interests. Not here for romance nor am I looking! I would like to find friends that share interests and a positive outlook on life. No drama queens please. Currently, between the joys of a daily routine and raising two wonderful children, I continue to work on my lifelong interest in the topic of Happiness in Humans .
I love and care for my very beautiful wife and two beautiful children; Raise Rabbits; Collect Books; Regret Nothing; Live each day with a Goal; Smile More; Bring Happiness to Loved Ones; Goof Off; Do Good!
I've had a wonderful life!
Favorite Quotes:
Sometimes the quotes that mean the most to us define us. If you ever asked my grandmother a question you had an excellent chance of being answered with a quote. Here are a few that define me:
Living is no laughing matter: you must live with great seriousness like a squirrel, for example- I mean without looking for something beyond and above living, I mean living must be your whole occupation.
Nazim Hikmet
As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.
Henry David Thoreau
If you don't like what's on, turn the channel.
My Grandmother Edna
You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Wayne Gretsky
I feel like a million tonight, but one at a time. Mae West
On Liberalism: Why think when you can “feel”?
Hee, hee, eees beeg trouble for moose and squirrel!
Boris & Natasha
Vice, Virtue. It's best not to be too moral. You cheat yourself out of too much *life*. Aim above morality. If you apply that to life, then you're bound to live life fully. Maude
Even a blind squirrel finds an occasional nut.Anon
Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself. Harvey Fierstein
Never feel self-pity, the most destructive emotion there is. How awful to be caught up in the terrible squirrel cage of self. Millicent Fenwick
The squirrel that you kill in jest, dies in earnest.
Henry David Thoreau
It's your world squirrel, I'm just trying to get a nut.
Will in Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better. Ralph Waldo Emerson
Beer is living proof that God loves us and wants to see us happy. Benjamin Franklin
We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same. Carlos Castaneda
Play pretty. My Grandma Beulah ..

Tenzin Gyatso, 14th Dalai Lama

"I make no claims of infallibility. In fact I absolutely claim fallibility."

Ana�s Nin
