Basically, I retired from the professional life which was after 20 years of advanced education earning various doctorate degrees in Psychology, Philosophy, and modern day Social/Cultural Anthropology. (no not digging around old bones), and getting masters degrees in biology and neural sciences, and over 20 years in the practice of various fields of Psychology and pioneering in new techniques of my last career in the field, Forensic Psychology. It was time to start having fun again.

I must establish first. I am a modern idealist and I am not interested in entering into any long time relationships. I already did that, and it was an amazing relationship, but I lost my wife to renal failure due to her contracting an illness during a tropical vacation, and her immune system just could not fight it. I would never put a woman in the position of taking second place to my devotion to that relationship. Yes, I have gotten well past the entire grief and mourning stage years ago, but made the choice, my choice to stay single and love lots of women and not be tied down to just one. This is a new age of romance, bringing back the nostalgia of when men were gentlemen and women were ladies. I socially date, have a great time, and then we each go our separate ways, no strings, no attachments, no desire to own or possess a mate, no jealousy, and no downsides of a relationship. Sorry, no more institutes of marriage for me.

On top of my formal education I am also what is called and autodidact. Now what that is, is a person who has the capacity to self educated themselves through research and experience. Probably the greatest autodidact in human history was none other than Leonardo da Vinci, a man far ahead of his time, and one of my greatest inspirations.

As for hobbies, well I guess I already hinted at that, I read, and I read a lot. I also do volunteer work in my community. Which of course is an asset to my social life. I am also a musicologist and a fountain of knowledge about rock, blues, R&B, among all genres of music. I am also a film buff, but not a great fan of Hollywood, I am more in tune with independent films and film making, foreign films, and documentaries. I am also a humorist who enjoys satire above all forms of humor. Very few people have come to the realization that poet and playwright William Shakespeare was one of the greatest satirists of all time. Yet people keep mulling over the incorrect aspects of Shakespeare's writing. It is simple, satire pokes fun at what we take for granted. That is what William Shakespeare did, he poked at romance, other cultures, and his favorite, Monarchy.

I am not an optimist, I am a pragmatic realist. Yes, I am guilty of having a natural high intelligence and because I made the best of it, does not make me some kind of a freak. Just someone with more data, and experience utilizing that data. My life was always about understanding the human experience, the human condition, the human psyche, and the human behavior. I had the hunger and thirst to know, and made the effort to learn and discover. Now I know.

I am easy going, laid back, and fearless.
