About Me: An aging yuppie from the mid 40's never quite fit any particular useful description given by all the world's fear and guilt based religions up to and beyond that time frame. The Baptist tribal religion version of a conceited demonic "God" of the Memphis Tennessee region of the early fifties somehow did not seem to be very worthy of any kind of worship to any sentient being hoping for some approach to a moderately sane and somewhat educated existence.

Career: Life long learning that "career" has no meaning to this kind of mind living in a very short kind of life form. Some remorse over those who seem to be on a career path that actually has meaning beyond that of someones very small definition of life. I seemed to have a quick mind that quickly became bored with the details of subjects as taught by most of my instructors. Perhaps a form of ADD? I was drafted into the Army in the Vietnam era and did not believe that I was exempt from service but did not like the idea of "made up wars" to suit the market requirements of a military industrial complex. So I took a missile electronics school where I ended up in Germany during the height of the "cold" war and later determined that the whole reason for that presence in that area was to give NATO a 20 minute warning before 14 Russian tank divisions rolled across the border.

Hobbies and Interests: The internet and Wikipedia, motorcycles and high tech gadgets along with a 40 year old search for a truly sane trending spiritual practice that involved light and sometimes heavy explorations of: The Urantia Book, Mormanism, Judadism, Scientology,  A Course In Miracles, Unity, Science of Mind and Buddhism,  along with reading most of the collected works of Ken Wilber, and Doctor David Hawkins, etc. etc.   Currently lumped under the generalized Consciousness studies as it seems to show up in the many life forms on this planet. Writing into a daily journal for the last 10 years or so in an effort to perceive some meaningful progress toward the claims of being helped by some or all of the above which includes daily meditation and contemplative prayer excursions.
