About Me
First - let me declare that I do not like putting punctuation marks juxtaposed to, each other, or regular words and letters .
Ever since the internet first came out ( around 1990 ) I started putting ' white space ' around almost all punctuation . One of the main reasons was that the periods, at the end of sentences, often got selected as part of a link and caused trouble . I later figured that, on a computer screen, there is virtually no virtue in compressing text to a minimum containment area . So why not let punctuation and white space intermingle in a free-form fashion . You are not going to waste any ink or paper so why not space things out any way you want ? No need to follow a strict regimen . I think it looks better to have some punctuation spaced away from the text . The main exception is comas . They just look weird when they are floating in a sea of white space .

Disclaimer : ' white space ' -> means blanks or just spaces between text - the space might be any color other than white - whatever the background color is - that is the color of the space - the term was coined when people used to type black letters on white paper and write colored ink on white paper . No ignorant or idiotic ideas or notions of preference or privilege intended .
( now you know why I type this way ) Because white space doesn't matter

It is impossible to keep tomato sauce and coffee out of my mustache .
I occasionally like to smoke a good pipe of tobacco, however, I don't inhale and I have no problem refraining for extended periods .

I am a licensed amateur radio operator . That means I took a test on radio propagation / electronics and passed . Now I can talk on the radio to people all around the world .

This shirt makes me look fat - haha . Actually it is cold here in North Florida - 50 degrees ! It is going to be freezing in a couple of days . Yikes ! I have several layers of clothes on under this shirt . Since I work outside a lot at night, I got used to putting on layers instead of using jackets . That way my uniform and service pistol are always visible and accessible ...

I generally cycle between 185 up to 200 pounds . Whenever I get up to 200, I start eating less and get back down below 190 . Heavier in winter to stay warmer . I NEVER eat sweet deserts after my meals . I only eat nuts and grains for snacks . I do occasionally eat some sweet snacks like granola bars or nut bars and sometimes sweet chocolates . Not very often . I used to drink cola drinks all the time, but quit about 10 years ago . I don't have any blood sugar or cholesterol or any other blood problems ... I just don't enjoy eating sweets . When the kids were at home, I used to eat some ice cream with them about twice a year, even though they had it quite often . I don't usually put sugar in my coffee; I use honey . Sometimes I do put raw cane or coconut sugar though .

One of my favorite things to cook is multi-bean / multi-meat / multi-vegetable stew ...
I used to use a 6 1 / 2 quart electric pressure cooker - but now I have a 10 quart . I always maxed out the smaller one, so now I have plenty of room . To start, I put :

A couple cups total of dry beans ( a mix of Navy, black, red, pinto, split pea, 15 bean pack, and some lentils ) .
A couple pounds total of frozen beef and chicken b r e a s t s . <- ( funny - I got a warning about this word )
Two large diced onions .
Two small cans of diced tomatoes with chili peppers .
About 5 cups of water .
I set the cooker to cook on high pressure for 30 minutes . It takes several minutes to heat up and pressurize and several more minutes, after cooking, to depressurize . So, about an hour later everything is cooked .
Then I add whatever vegetables I want - maybe carrots and celery or mixed vegetables . Sometimes potatoes too .
Two cans of tomato sauce and a bunch of chopped up garlic . A bunch . A whole bunch . A large head or two if they are not large enough . I love garlic and onions . I often eat them raw with my meals . The only other things I add are : salt, black pepper, and spices such as : oregano, cumin, curry, thyme, basil, tarragon, ginger ... and loads of cayenne . Sometimes when it is done, if I want to thicken it, I add some broken up angel hair spaghetti noodles .
6 1 / 2 quarts make about 3 or 4 meals . It depends on how much I scoop out each time . Yes, it tastes better the second, third, and fourth time ...
After adding all that, I set the cooker to low pressure for 5 minutes .

That reminds me about when I was in the Navy - I was stationed in Sigonella Sicily . The Naval Air Station was situated at the base of Mount Etna . All of the cooks and all of the food was from the local area . EVERYTHING tasted WAY better because of the volcanic soil there . The eggs had very dark orange yolks and the oranges were super dark . They were called blood oranges . I liked the food so much that I would get out of bed and put on my uniform at night to eat again at the ' midnight breakfast ' in the mess hall ... I will never forget how the food was so good . It had several times more flavor than any other . I think I wouldn't mind moving there just for the food ... but it wouldn't end well, I know, I would get as big as a buffalo .

Naval Air Station Sigonella
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naval_Air_Station_Sigonella

I was in the Army and the Navy . The Army breached my contract after my first electronics school . In the Navy I was an In-Flight Computer Technician on P3-C Patrol Aircraft - AX ASW Anti Submarine Warfare Technician ( 1976 - that was when the computer used 10 inch tape reels and 64 k of memory was as big as your living room easy chair ) We went on 10 hour flights over the ocean . Sometimes as low as 50 feet above the water .

I worked as a railroad switchman for almost 10 years . ( that means on the ground and hanging on the side of the cars all day and all night . Never stop for rain, lightning storm, or anything - only stop for 20 minutes to eat and 20 minutes meant 20 minutes ) .

I worked as a computer programmer for over 30 years .

I now work as an armed security officer .

I love riding my 2 Kawasaki Z900 motorcycles - a red 2019 and a blue 2020 model .

I enjoy most all outdoor activities : Hunting, fishing, camping, biking, discharging firearms ...
I also enjoy playing Call of Duty Warzone on the new computer I built a few months ago .

I carry a S&W M&P2.0 9mm 4.25 FDE at all times to protect the innocent and deter the villainous guilty .

I also like to dehydrate and ferment food ( especially spicy beef jerky ) . I like to make my own garlic, onion, pepper, and tomato powders . My favorite food is POPCORN ( cooked in coconut or avocado oil ) . I top it with loads of salt, black pepper, and a mix of ghost, jalapeno, cayenne, paprika pepper powders, and some hot yellow mustard powder . And sometimes a few dashes of garlic, onion, tomato, cheddar cheese, vinegar and citric acid powders . ( gives it that Doritos flavor ) Which brings to mind -
I thought of some brand names for new tortilla chips - Gimmeedos - Summados - and - Summadeez ...

Unisex tip for eating popcorn without getting your fingers oily or ! DANGEROUSLY ! over-spiced with pepper powders :
Use chopsticks .

OK, be honest -> Have you ever dropped a popcorn and after you found it - you popped it into your mouth and discovered that it wasn't warm like the ones you just cooked ? Then you realized that it must be that one you dropped last night and couldn't find ?
Me either .

I also discovered the secret to eternal life -> Never stop breathing ...
Here is a question that answers itself -> What are you drinking ? Pronounced as ' Water you drinking ' .

My second favorite food is COCONUT . Everything is better with coconut flavor accentuation .
My favorite soap is KIRK'S - coconut oil soap - it tastes good too .
That reminds me of a unisex safety tip : when showering and you want to lift one foot to wash it - always brace yourself by putting your hand IN THE CORNER of the wall - that way it is not likely to slip horizontally even if saturated with coconut oil soap !

Now for the things I hate -> SHOES .
When I was 25 years old, I could run across the railroad rocks and skid to a stop - BAREFOOTED .
Yes, I mow the lawn using a regular push mower while being totally unashamedly and unabashedly BAREFOOT ! ( I don't use pesticides or herbicides )
If you have never experienced your feet being 110 % saturated with chlorophyllic magnificence, THEN
You don't know what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind Blue Eyes ... ( The Who - 1971 )

I never went to college until 2015 . ( I taught myself computer programming while I worked at the railroad ) . I got an Associates in Science degree for Computer IT programming and technician . I graduated with high honors with a 3.94 GPA . I made 20 A ' s and 1 B grade . The B was in algebra . I was tired and didn't study enough for the final exam ... I am a member of Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society .

All that didn't help me get a job in my old age - so now I work as an armed security guard . At least it is more exercise than typing on a computer all day ... However, I am content; because - by the grace of God - I have not had surgery ( except when I got my tonsils removed at age 10 ) - and not been under a doctor's care or on prescriptions for any medical ailment . Praise the LORD !

I was born 2 months early and weighed only 3 pounds and 2 ounces . I was black because my lungs were not developed and had to spend several weeks in an incubator . They would not even let my mom see me for several days after I was born . My Dad said that I was so small that he could hold me in one hand .

Ooops, I forgot - I had my 4th year birthday during a 12 week quarantine because I had spinal meningitis . The only person who could enter my room was the nurse with the big metal encased syringe with a giant protruding needle ! - At one point I climbed out of the crib and had one foot on the side of the crib and one foot on the window sill ( I could see the cars in the parking lot below ) . I fell on the floor and after that, they put a netting over the top of my crib so I couldn't climb out again .

I stopped watching television in 1980 . That was about the time when personal computers showed up on the market .

I've had 2 whole girlfriends in my entire life . At age 24 I had a girlfriend named Debbie for a couple of years . Didn't work out . Then at age 35, I got married for the first time to Amy . 26 years and 8 children later, she finally found the boyfriend ( number 10 or 12 ? - I stopped counting ) with whom she chose to run away with to North Carolina . I didn't believe in divorce, so I refused to do so until she abandoned me and all the children . As you might have guessed -> I didn't believe in contraception either .

People at work kept asking : ' What are you going to do if you have another baby ' ?
I always answered : ' Get a smaller house because I won't be able to afford the one I have now ' . haha

All my children were home schooled - they never set foot into a government school, of ill repute, until they went to college ...

I wonder if girlfriend 3 will have a name that ends in the eee sound ? ? ?

Hey, do you know you can make a riddle using the eee sound ? This is fun to do with kids because they can make their own riddles ...
There are endless possibilities -> It works like this ->
Take a word that ends in the eee sound, then see if you can describe it and make it into a simple riddle :
What kind of eee do you get when you stay up a long time and are very tired ? --------- sleepy
What kind of eee do you get when you haven't eaten in a long time ?
Ok, here is a tough one - what kind of ots really care ? ------ Carrots
Well, for a kid it works better if you phrase it like you say it ->
What kind of its really care ? Carrits

Some things I wonder about :
God calls each star by name .
Maybe God decided to name all the stars because He put them there to tell the story of every good work He has ever done, is doing, and ever will do in the future .
Maybe their positions and movements are digital and analog representations of the work God does in saving, redeeming, and sanctifying each and every person who becomes saved . Also, all the other good works He does in relation to restraining and punishing sin in the guilty lost pagans .
Maybe the names of the stars are related to YOU and ME in the mind of God ! ! !
Maybe there is new star for every time He gives you another heartbeat or a breath of air to breathe .

Psalm 147:4, ESV: "He determines the number of the stars; he gives to all of them their names."

Psalm 19:1, ESV: "To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork."

Water to Wine
The first miracle that Jesus did was not evolution - it was creation .
What if Jesus told the servants to pour water into 10 billion jars and wait 10 billion years for some wine to evolve ?
Well, what if a modern scientist went back and got some of the wine that Jesus created instantly . What if she put it in her laboratory testing machines and then did a report on what she found .
She would say that the wine was made from grapes and it was fermented for a time period . The bacteria ate the sugars and excreted alcohol . And she saw that it was very good ...
Don't believe the lie of evolution - Jesus didn't use it to make wine and He didn't use it to create the world and every living thing in it .

P. S. If you don't get this message soon ...
No worries ; I can wait for ' Strawberry Fields Forever ' ( The Beatles 1967 )

Since you read this all the way to the end ->
I will mention that my favorite band is LYNYRD SKYNYRD .
( Pronounced Leh-Nerd Skin-Nerd ( 1973 ) Their First Album )
Not just because they are from my home town . And I went to the same high school that they did .
( Ten years later at Robert E. Lee )
Maybe it's because I can almost sing almost all of his songs ( Ronnie Van Zant ) . I can't hit the high notes though .
I like almost every song the original band ever produced and I know the words to all of them .

My favorite song of all time ->
' Swamp Music ' ( Lynyrd Skynyrd 1974 )
www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPU_7DEwPuM

However, I really wouldn't rather live with the hound dogs for the rest of my natural born life ...
The reason why I like this song so much is that every member of the band is steadily slamming out the jam during the entire song . I can taste strawberry, peach, apple, raspberry, grape, cinnamon, cherry, banana, pecan, watermelon, avocado, persimmon, and fried bream . ( with salt and black pepper )
I would very much like a ' Second Helping ' ( Their Second Album 1974 )
And a third and a fourth and to infinity and beyond !
I have been guilty of playing this song over and over for about an hour or so . It is the only song of which I have ever done that . Except : : : -> -> ->

"The Wild Wild West" TV Intro

When I was a kid at 13 years old, we lived in Los Angeles California . On Friday night, this show would come on . The first few years, it was black and white only - then in color .
Forty years later, when I found this tune on the internet - I let it play for about an hour because it reminded me of the anticipation I remember of being 13 again .

Name a song that has only one word for the lyrics ... ( STINGRAY )
I used to watch this when I was a kid ->

Gerry Anderson's Stingray (1964) - HD Opening Titles
www.youtube.com/watch?v=45NtEXv7DZs

And this one -> ( Lancelot Link - Secret Chimp )
These videos are still funny even now .

First Date
Have dinner or lunch or just coffee . Go for a walk sounds good ( sans shoes that is ) ...
Or we could simultaneously chew on the opposing ends of a piece of beef jerky without using our hands .

The first thing I am going to say when I meet you is :
Wow, you look a lot better than the picture on the internet - that picture of you is terrible ...
Then you will say :
Really ?
And I will say :
No, I am just kidding - I said that because that is what I wanted you to say to me . You know, the bible says we should do to others as we want them to do to us ...
To which you reply :
You know something, your picture kinda looks like that guy on the Shroud of Turin .
And I retort : Oh, so you're saying that I look like somebody ran me over with a large truck ? ? ?
You : No silly, they didn't even have trucks back then .
Me : Would you believe a small camel ?

The second thing I am going to say to you is :
I saw on your profile that you are an Author / Teacher . Can you teach me to write an essay on how you taught me to write an essay about being taught how to write an essay and getting it published ?
BTW - A favorite song of mine is ' Paperback Writer ' ( 1966 The Beatles )
www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYvkICbTZIQ

The third thing is a question that has been bothering me since I was a little kid . I never got the nerve to ask anyone until now :
You know that paternalistic situation when a little boy got in trouble and his excuse for misbehaving was : Well, JOHNNY did it and he was ok .
Then the mom says : If JOHHHNNYYYY jumped off the Empire State Building - WOULD YOU ? ? ?
What do parents whose son's name is JOHNNY say ? If BILLY ... ?
Why did I never find out anything about what the mom says to a little girl in trouble ?
Is it -> If SUUUZZEEEE jumped off ...:

How can you get Suzee to be declared as queen ?
Find someone like Jerry Queen and get him to file a civil lawsuit against someone like Martha Zee . Then report it to the news services and the headline will be ->
Queen Sues Zee

Reminds me of another of my favorite songs by Creedence Clearwater Revival ( first recorded by them in ** * 1968 * ** )
This live performance was in 1997 ->
Oh Susie Q - Baby, I love you - Susie Q
www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XGYiwOsPqQ

Well, lookee here : The song was previously released in ** * 1957 * ** by Dale Hawkins ->
www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AtV7NTIt9g

The last thing ( before the serious talk begins ) that I will say is :
How did you get such a strong forearm there little lady ? Is it from aiming that 50 cal at each of your prior suitors ?

The main thing to talk about is our personal relationship with Jesus .
That is the most important thing for everyone to continually think about every day .
It is the best common ground for any friendship .

Maybe go for a ride on my motorcycle ? ? ?
I promise - 145 MPH is as fast as I will go ... unless you ask me politely or threaten me forcefully .

If I could sing - I would sing you this song -> ( well, actually I can sing, however, I always sing ' in between ' ( that is - in between all the right notes ) )
' Take The Time ' ( Bad Company 1979 )
www.youtube.com/watch?v=aiMXtduciPE

and this song ->
' Call On Me ' ( Bad Company 1975 )
www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUvvSkk7oeI

and this song ->
' Early In The Morning ' ( Bad Company 1979 )
www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4II2DiszRc

I should do it while we are on the bike and you won't even notice how bad I did ...

One final question before I go :
Do you make your own yogurt ? and do you double filter your water ? and do you have at least 1 year of storable food ?

It is obvious as to why I am willing to drive such a long way to see you ->
' Man Needs Woman ' ( Bad Company 1977 )

While driving there - I will be singing ->
' Wild Fire Woman ' ( Bad Company 1975 )

If everything works out swimmingly - I will be singing ->
' She Brings Me Love ' ( Bad Company 1979 )
www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXW-4Hn7LPI

I call that a bargain - The best I ever had ! ! !

and ->
' Happy Man ' ( Chicago 1974 )
www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHfw0dV5BII

Ok, sorry, I lied, I always have one more question ; I am pathological about it too - I never cease to be inquisitive .

Do you almost always find yourself singing or humming when you are preparing your meals ? Or is it just me ? ?
I started doing something that I call - singing in unknown tunes - without words ...
I just sing any piece of any tune I want ; adding other pieces of other tunes ; intermixed with making up tune fragments of my own -> for no sensible reason ... Now, since it is impossible to do that and find words that work at the same time -> I don't even try to make words . I just sound out phonemes ( short sounds that are parts of vocal speech patterns ) . So, I suppose it sounds kind of like speaking in tongues, but singing . I find it quite enjoyable because it is easy just to string the tune along any way you want . And while mouthing the vocal sounds, it feels like you are really singing a song .
( I don't speak in tongues ; nor do I ascribe to that practice )

Ok, laugh all you want - don't knock it until you try it ...

I got tired of my usual - do do to do to do boo hoo dee doh doh dah dah stuff ...
That ain't no fun compared to singing in an unknown tune with no words !

I have to admit - sometimes, I still get obsessed with incessantly singing my legacy ditty ; it goes like this here :

There's nothing left to do, but sing this song to you .
repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat repeat
until the cows come home, take a bath, and get ready to be supper
