Well, this is the new version of my web page.
I am happy, single, independent. (10 year marriage ~~Amicable divorce - we
are friends)
I live in Los Angeles, and
I work for a Fortune 500 Company (Aerospace).
I am bi-lingual English/French ~~a not-used language here in Southern
California :(
I am partial to the idea that modern day Corporate CEOS are the 90's version
of Shoguns and other ancient warriors. I feel Fortune 500 corporate
expansion, marketplace, competition and strategy are based on books like Sun
Tzu's: "The Art of War" and "On War" by General Karl Von Clausewitz
(Clausewitz
Homepage).
LATELY I have been thinking a lot about the US Military. I was greatly
moved and impacted by the movie "Saving Private Ryan" but I have often
thought that men and women who put their lives on the line are not
acknowledged or appreciated nearly as much as they should be.
There is a large percentage of the military that are truly patriotic and do
want their lives to make a difference.
I believe that the Internet is an incredible tool, and that this new
Informational/Technological Age is revolutionizing the planet and that
not everyone has realized this yet. I think the Internet is phenomenal,
(heck, I spend a huge amount of time on it daily) but... I also feel
that it can be very misused.
I hope that computer geeks and nerds and all the brilliant minds in high
tech will evolve ways to use computers to raise the standard of life of
the civilization.
I enjoy persuading corporate executives to NOT donate funds to "Medical
Research." Much of these donations end up in animal abuse and
torture, videos of which
are available and almost unconfrontable to watch.
There are other ways to research (cellular research for example) than the
torture and abuse of Animals.
I have a great love for animals, especially dogs and I oppose animal
experiments especially brutal isolation and caged conditions for primates,
dogs and cats under the guise of "research".
I strongly support People for Ethical Treatment of Animals
(PETA).

CLICK HERE
I am a collector who specializes in Thomas Kinkade paintings.
Thomas Kinkade is the only living artist who has sold more paintings than
Vincent Van Gogh, Monet, Picasso, Gaugin, and Leonardo Da Vinci combined.
You too can own a hand signed piece of this legendary artist.
In acquiring my collection, I sometimes purchased out whole collections that
overlapped into duplicates. This started my adventure of selling Thomas
Kinkades on the secondary market.

~~ MOST ADMIRED ~~
I admire those that make a difference and influence the outcome for the
better.
My FAVORITE corporate Fortune 500 company is United Parcel Service (UPS).
Every Year, for the past thirty years, UPS has sent a growing number of
managers on a unique sabbatical. They leave behind their families and day
jobs to spend a month living in communities that need help. They build
houses. Tend to the sick. Feed the Hungry. Through the UPS community
Internship Program, they not only help their new communities, they help
themselves. They broaden their perspectives. They learn, and in the end, it
makes them better managers.
A KEYWORD about me is ADVANCEMENT.
I can never sit on past laurels and seek relentlessly to advance mentally,
spiritually, technologically, philosophically, in other words I seek growth
and forward motion.
I am a spiritual person ~~ I believe in the immortality of the soul/spirit and
in re-incarnation.
I am fascinated with the fact that modern technology can upgrade the quality
of life.
I am a willing student always seeking to improve my computer skills and
advance my ability.
