My best picture…during my prison experience and before my throat cancer.

I’m a 4th generation Idahoan, parental partner, Independent voter and BSU grad. I’ve worked the trades, sales (encyclopedia, furnishings & appliance, real estate) and owned a business (furnishings touch up / repair). I’ve had my fair share of challenges in life (Boy howdy there!). I enjoy classic latin, french, spanish and bit of german–and I do like sassy old parrots.  As for religion, my father was the honest agnostic: hoping for God, but not using a God.. I, however, was raised Mormon; and, throughout the challenges of my life, still treasure a testimony and consider myself blessed to be associated with such good folk.  The same goes for dying, too; I won’t mind dying as long as I have a social conscience.  I figure, at the very least, I’ll have that for some company…wherever I go…if I go wherever. 🙂

My Favorite quote: Bis dat qui Cito dat. (Latin: Twice gives one who quickly gives.)

Happier pic than my previous year’s FB cancer pic..
