I am here for Friends

About Me

A recluse and hermit by nature sadly lacking in social skills. A Parent of 4, three girls and one boy from 22 to 32 years old.
A grandparent of 4, three girls and one boy from 1 year to 13 years.
An avid reader with an insatiable curiosity and tinkerer by nature always puttering and building things from computers to furniture.
I tend to skip through blogs and web pages hurrying from thought to thought like hopping stones from leap to leap, often with disregard to leaving a footprint or carving my name along the way..
If I read your blog It's sure that I hopped over there because I enjoy your outlook or insight or something about you.If I forget on occasion to leave a comment in the 40 to 60 blogs and pages I visit each day, its just my hurrying way and rusted social skills and not personal.

My Interests


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~

All Banners are linx


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'd like to meet:

The bastard who busted my sled runner in Feb. 1964.
The asswipe who stole my bottle of rum on New Years Eve 1975
The scumbag who hit my car at the I.G.A. Store parking lot June of 1982
The sneaky son of a bitch who put pin pricks in my condoms on 4 occasions.
(Hold a grudge, who me?)

Music:


And the night shall be filled with music,
And the cares that infest the day
Shall fold their tents like the Arabs
..... And as silently steal away.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, The Day Is Done

Movies:


It is my indignant opinion that 90 percent of the moving pictures exhibited in America are so vulgar, witless and dull that it is preposterous to write about them in any publication not intended to be read while chewing gum.
"Wolcott Gibbs

Television:

I think life should be more like tv. I think all of life's problems ought to be solved in 30 minutes with simple homilies, don't you? I think weight and oral hygiene ought to be our biggest concerns. I think we should all have powerful, high-paying jobs, and everyone should drive fancy sports cars. All our desires should be instantly gratified. Women should always wear tight clothes, and men should carry powerful handguns. Life overall should be more glamorous, thrill-packed, and filled with applause, don't you think?
Calvin & Hobbs

Books:

A book is the only place in which you can examine a fragile thought without breaking it, or explore an explosive idea without fear it will go off in your face. It is one of the few havens remaining where a man's mind can get both provocation and privacy.
~Edward P. Morgan

Heroes:

The idol of to-day pushes the hero of yesterday out of our recollection, and will, in turn, be supplanted by his successor of to-morrow.
~Washington Irving
