Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste, I've been around for some long, long years...

I just a guy who likes chess and wine and gambling and laughter. I enjoy buying and selling art and collectables on Ebay. Trained as a classical musician, linguist, and information analyst, I entered the military in covert operations in 1970 Vietnam. Now in retirement, I enjoy the beauty in California, Japan, Hawaii, Alaska, or Spain. A government contractor, and member of both the Free Enterprise Institute and Mensa, I have acquired a sensitivity for art and honesty, and decisiveness. Childhood curiosity and extensive education has resulted in a person who can look back on life philosophically. Over all, a good ride. Oh, I give loving kindness to everyone except fanatics. There is no hate except for those who hate. Good things happen due to military strength and patriotism. Peace Out.
