I've been remiss. Here's my introduction post.

Old hippie raised in #SoCal w/six siblings, none of whom are full sibs. Also lived in #Maine, #Colorado, #Iowa, #Wisconsin. Went to 12 schools in 12 years. Had many jobs -- from building boats to making screws (really), from retail to short order cook, from newspaper editor to magazine publisher, from freelance writer to photographer.

I prefer retirement.

I swear a lot, so fucking get over it. Always been a liberal & atheist.

Glad to be here.
