do I know you? and why don't I?

About Me

I have worked for two record companies and a film company, played in a few bands and have had a great life so far. I've had songs published, as well as poetry & several short stories.However, through it all, I have always valued only TWO things - wealth & time freedom. I don't care to get into a discourse, on the subject, so I'll save us the time; the two biggest lies perpetrated in the 20th century, are "it's only sex", or "it's only money". Try going a year without either one, because whoever said that is selling something:)In the meantime check out my links and see why I'm smiling...I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

Maxwell, Ralph Waldo Emerson, The Beatles, Jimmy Carter, Steven Soderbergh, Napoleon Hill, Dale Carnegie, Perry Farrell...and YOU.

TV is what it is...kind of a waste. Especially reality TV-work of the devil. The only TV habit I have is watching the movie channels (HBO, etc.), and just some news, which I mostly get online...

Heroes:

Heroes...strong word. Well, in no particular order here is who I admire while knowing they're flawed: Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr. Pete Townsend, Muhammad Ali, Frank Sinatra, Theodore Roosevelt, Otis Williams, Harland C. Stonecipher, Malcolm X, Barry Goldwater, Brad Pitt, Orson Welles, and anyone who did what was told could not be done.
