I am here for Serious Relationships and Networking

About Me

Halfway home and still feeling new and free.What am I doing here?Done stumbled in by chance and mistake like I did into this world itself.And that worked out so far so good.

My Interests

the yoga of daily life.A good night's sleep.Laughing and crying on tap.Self-improvement as religion.Bumpping my head on the golden rule every damm day.Good don't matter when you want to be great.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone I can learn from I love.People who have been around the block,around the course,a few times.Those who have lived and learned.Who wear medals on the inside.Who will show GOD the scars of life.Those who love.Those who suffer.Those who play the game with glass pieces.Well,you know what I mean.Do you know the worst but still believe the best?

Music:

The Beatles.Helen Morgan.Diane Kolby.Judee Sill.Linda Jones.

Movies:

The Wild Bunch.Ordet.Freebie and the Bean.Fires on the Plain.A Patch of Blue.Smile.Hard Times.

Television:

The first five minutes of Baywatch.

Books:

Robert Stone and Colin Wilson are the best living.Shakespeare and Yeats are the best dead.

Heroes:

Allen Bakke's hand I would like to shake.I would like to thank Eartha Kitt for what she did.The guy who faced down the tank in china set the bar mighty high,bless'em.John Hinkley's parents showed the strength of love.Azuma Nelson.Barbara Peyton.Jesus.Douglas Treem. Charles Bronson.Mezz Mezzrow.Mae West.

Battling Siki/ If you can/Rest in peace/ In your native land/ Sleep and dream/ The happy times/ Forget this world/ And all its crimes/ At the spot/ Where you died/ A prayer was said/ A white man/ Crie...
