About Me

This is where I get to tell you all sorts of things about myself that make me look really Really REALLY good...
HA! HA! HA!
If you're actually reading this congratulate yourself. YOU are in the minority group that goes beyond picture browsing to find the REAL story. You should be a reporter.
Truth is I'm a great lover of the arts -- Photography, Music, Theatre, Painting, Sculpture -- and have been a long time member of SAM (Seattle Art Museum).
I should be a world renowned Chef. When I am in a kitchen I produce culinary masterpieces. My rendering of toast is unequalled.
I'm one of those musical types who composes their own songs as a creative outlet. I play piano, keyboards, guitar, and bass. I only know one chord but damn can I make it rock!
Friends are always welcome in my home. When you pop into my life more than five days a week you are not just a friend - you become family. Amy, last week was vacuuming. This week it's your turn to take out the trash. Tina ... uhm ... never mind. All you do is whine about being hungry and post obnoxious comments on MySpace. Just remember, YOU are the one that got me started here.
While my own kids, who live with me on a full time basis, are required to participate in an educational musical experience during their formative years, it's my hope that later in life they will find a simple joy in song just as I do.
I love taking pictures. I guess it's 'cause I'm sort of a visual person. When I'm out and about I almost always carry my gear with me. Isn't it amazing how my best photos are always taken on days I remember to bring my camera......
Life is not static. You can be whoever you choose ... every moment ... of every day ... for as long as you live. ..

My Interests

Wonder of wonders, seems I could write anything here and nary a soul would message or post comment to say, "Are you really interseted in such and such."

I'd like to meet:

Jeg mter en vakker prinsesse. Hun elsker meg med all hennes hjerte.

YOU 'cause you're kinda goofy and you make me laugh...

Looking for people to jam with. I've got a whole studio full of musical instruments screaming to be played. (See Networking)

Friends:

Most of my friends and family need serious help. In fact those select individuals who are listed on my top four are the ones who I judge most unstable - My Family!!! Did you make the list? Lucky You!!! LIKE YOU HAD A CHOICE. As to friends, feel free to check them out but don't say I didn't warn you.

Fork in the Road

For every fork in the road there are often two paths to choose from... the one you "should" take and the one you want to take. Take the second. Always take the second. ...

Seeing The You in You

Isn't it weird how we can see the near limitless potential of another who's own vision is clouded by their stories of what's possible. Works the other way around too. Was just thinking about a woman f...

Golden Gardens

I took lunch at Golden Gardens today (the beach). It was a bit chilly, perhaps forty-five degrees, but every now and again the sun would peak from behind thinning clouds. Where the light shown on the ...

Unanswered Answered Prayer

Sometimes I feel like God taunts me with the manifestation of an answered prayer ... and then ... nothing. What's with that 'cause it's really testing the will to hold my tounge?
