I am lucky that my Juvie records are closed about burning down the house with my parents in it...it would have severely limited my prospects in life. As such I am perfectly free to create whatever mayhem that strikes my fancy in the world.

On a lighter note I have often alluded to and commented upon on the road I have traveled since I was 20. When was 20 I suffered a tramatic event where I became "WOKE" and not this hokum bokum Liberal? Progressive mind fk babble either. At the time I wanted nothing more than resume my blissful slumber, but you can not unring a bell. My epiphany on the road to Damacus was that I didn't know anything not only about myself but other peoples motivations as well. There was a whole other universe out there waiting to be discovered and examined. Not wanting to be a clueless git I set about learning everything I could. I became a lifetime devoted adherent of the Socratic axiom, "that the unexamined life is not worth living." Focusing on that greater endeavor cost me the pursuit of greater materiel achievement. As Jesus so aptly said. "What does it profit a man to gain the world only to lose his soul." So while my achievement can not be measured and is not readily apparent in material terms..I have become effective in my navigation through this life where everything is clearly delineated.
