About Me

If curiosity actually could kill... I'd have been done in a long time ago. I think it was Albert Einstien who said, "God is in the details". I am not sure if it is actually god, but the details have definately stopped me in my tracks and made me think about things quite a bit more than the big picture. I like big pictures, but the sum of the parts, makes up the whole, right? So what does this say about me...? Nothing except that I am the sum of the parts and that details of me will most likely stop you in your tracks.

My Interests

travel, art, music, theatre, film, tools, and you. I am interested in people who push the envelope in life and make things happen. "If you love what you do, you will never work a day in your life!" Confucius.

I'd like to meet:

You, my unborn children, an alien, Santiago from "The Old Man and the Sea", Eli Broad, Sheikh Saud Al-Thani, the ghosts of Theodore Roosevelt, Kahlil Gibran, Mark Twain and Nikola Tesla for drinks at the Waldorf Astoria and anyone else funny enough to make me laugh, smart enough to make me think, and pretty enough to make me purr.
