I am a periodically nomadic guy who is living a pretty damned cool life, but sometimes forgets it. Tallish, lankified, and the current product of the struggle of other generations, I strive to live a productive and fulfilling life while enjoying it at the same time. I am fortunate and I hope to spend much of my life sharing that with friends and others.

I'm always learning, decent enough to show, but never good enough to teach (as far as I see it.) I'm aware and somewhat spiritual, but not as touchy-feely as that last paragraph sounded. I'm often politically incorrect, sometimes erudite, and seldom what society would dictate as "Black."

Furthermore, I use a lot of words and have problems being brief. I always think there's something I left out, mostly because I hate the possibility of being misunderstood or having people get the wrong ideas about me.

I was a clown for Ringling Brothers for four years and for three years as part of a clown trio for a family show produced by the same company. I'm just a guy fortunate enough to have the abilities to do what I do and not have to work in a cube farm to do it. I have a long way to go before I'm great, but someday I hope to be, and at more than one thing.
