About Me

I am a grown up man. Married for 33 years, with three amazing sons and a life (lives) lived, but way not complete. I've worked as a newspaperman, football coach, TV commercial actor and brand model, created a swanky blues club in London's Covent Garden, worked as a criminal defense associate, PR guy, Montana horse wrangler, commercial photographer, and now work with Thunderdog Studios (www.thunderdogstudios.com) on their brilliant toy manufacturing projects.I've been broke, out of luck and in despair more than once. I out grew a couple of nasty strokes and a lot of bad habits. Best of my life has been (and still is) the relationship my sons and I have augered. My best friends, greatest supporters and dearest hearts are my sons.I like to think. and wonder. I worry way less now that I know nothing is solid: everything (everything) is always tilting, rocking and morphing into something else. I find comfort in that. Dig it, really. This knowlege and the fact that nobody's responsible for your life but you changes all sorts of shit. Being older rocks really good. I give a shit about a whole lot less (and a whole lot more) now at 65.If I have a moral rudder it is: cultivating friendliness and compassion. That, and this: Never Quit no matter the opposition.If you really wanted to get to know me you'd go to: www.mylittlelookingglass.blogspot.com

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet my grand children on a beach in the Caribbean, where we'd have the time to sit and wonder together, catch some warm rays, nap and swim some. I'd like to meet you, too. Who are you, anyway, reading this right now? What's your life story?
