About Me

Born in Australia, grew up on the west coast of Canada. Over 40,000 miles of hitchhiking in my teens and 20s. Love to travel. Involved in The Way from 1984 to 2000. Married with two children, a boy and a girl. Got my Bachelor's in 2006, 26 years after I started. A classroom teacher for the past two years, will complete my certification for English 6-12 in March. Diana is now an RN working as a research coordinator for Johns Hopkins in the the field of pediatric cystic fibrosis. Her passion is to help people through alternative--natural,holistic--health care. To that end she is a certified EDS technician and has her own business dealing with EDS testing, detoxifying footbaths, and nutrition--including holistic supplements and remedies. Connor, at twenty, has been with the same girl for four years. He is attending St Pete College and will switch to USF soon. The goal is complete his Bachelor's in Political Science next summer, do officer training in the fall, and then enter the Air Force for a career in intelligence or JAG. He is almost constantly involved in theater productions. Juliana is 18 and skipped her senior year of high school to attend early college. She will graduate high school four credits short of her AA. Then it will be off to UNF, UF, or FSU for a degree in Biochemistry. After that, she is unsure. Jules and her boyfriend, Mat, have been together almost 2 years. We currently have nine dogs, three cats, 2 parrots and fish in our menagerie, but that is likely to grow the next time Diana hears of an animal needing a home.

My Interests

Still love to research and teach the bible. Here is a link to some short research articles I have written. https://thedoserch.blogspot.com/ Writing is a passion and some of my work is posted on this page.

Employment or Career

Done a myriad of things over the years, now teaching at Job Corps and loving it. I still do side- stone outdoor kitchen, boat dock, kitchens, bathrooms, tile, decks, remodels,etc.

Music I Like

Blues, Jazz, Rock, Folk, Country, Soul, Funk, depends on my mood. Right now I LOVE Jason Mraz, Rare Earth, Yngwie Malmsteen, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Johnny Lang,Linkin Park Kid Rock, Greenday, J Cole, Renaissance, Mike Oldfield, Gordon Lightfoot, Glen Hansard, Joe Brooks, Evanescence and Susan Tedeschi. Check out my playlist for some real goodies.

Books I Like

Mysteries -- spies, cops and robbers, and lately fantasy--mages, elves, dragons, magic, Forgotten Realms-- mostly as a diversion from my academic reading.

Television I like

Sports, Law and Order, CSI, Impostors, Dexter, Queen of the South, Burn Notice

Movies I like

Funny, I can watch most kid/family movies over and over but am usually one and done with others. Also find that a number of the better stories fly a little under the radar: "The Ultimate Gift," "Facing the Giants," "Peaceful Warrior," "Knights of the South Bronx," "Welcome to Paradise," you get the idea, lol. Also like shoot-em-up action/adventures and psychological thrillers.

Sports Teams I like

USF Bulls (my alma mater), Florida Gators, Tampa Bay Lightning, Vancouver Canucks

Richard you might enjoy a new Tip of the Day I added concerning Music Players on this site. Check it out unde the Help & Tips section tab above.

BTW Use me up - Aaron Neville does not seem to play. Maybe it is corrupt.
Roberto Martinez December 11, 2007 at 11:28am

OK Richard, I'll let you know when I'm going well in advanced so you con come with me; I prefer to fly, but if you come with me; I'll rent a car and pick you up going southbound since I am north of you. Keep in touch.

Yes we do. We meet on Monday nights. I also travel to South Florida to teach and minister when I can, though I haven't been down there in a few months. Would you come with me next time I drive down there to teach and hang out with believers from South Florida?
Much love,
Roberto

Hi Richard, Got your note this morning but was rushing out the door to break through the ice with a kayak:-) So good to hear from you. Sounds like you've been doing well. I'm back on the coast of Maine these past five years. Am overseeing social workers in two counties working with special needs children for work. Frolicking about this beautiful place enjoying life.

So it holds a hundred, eh? That's pretty good. You need to get one of the large IPODS from Santa this year. You can put ALL your songs on it...all of them ...and watch music videos on the screen too.....and still have room to spare.

Furthermore, Itunes is all the rage now. Try it instead of Windows Media Player. It is a free download from Apple site. But you have to also install the crappy Quicktime software too. They make you.
