Bio
I'm earthy, a bit of a loose cannon, eclectic, insatiably curious, iconoclastic, definitely a free spirit, a tad shy, a hermit by nature, and I don't suffer fools gladly.
As with a lot of things, all the really good stuff is 'Friends Only'. Are you a friend?
- Friedrich Nietzsche
- Dr. Laurence J. Peter.
No matter how pure their motives, they thereby throw sand into the machinery that does not work too well at best."
- Robert A. Heinlein from Time Enough for Love (1973)
