52 year old male, living in Northern California. Former Alter Boy who has found understanding in eastern ways.
I grew up on a rural farm that was invaded by urban growth. I now spend my time, both living and working in a city environment and rural areas. I am at home, living out of a suitcase in a hotel room with room service, as I am, spending a lot of time out at my father-in-laws remote ranch in the Hill Country, in Texas. I much prefer the later.
I have been a Democrat for the last 35 years, but have become appalled at the Socialists take-over of this political party. I find my political leanings as so far Left that I have come back on the other side to the Right.
My most pressing concerns with the environment and world affairs now, are Bio-mass fuels and alternative energy. We must rid ourselves from our dependence of foreign oil.
We must preserve and protect this world we live on.
