About Me
- Tim
- I'm 49 and married with children (look out Al Bundy)went to college and got a degree, have been fixing electromechanical computer controlled machines for over 25 years (currently in healthcare).To do my job I travel the midwest (OH, MI,NY,PA,MN,WI,) south (NC,SC,TN,LA), and west (AZ,CO,WY,ND). In the 80's lived in NYC while in the US Coast Guard, traveled thru Europe, got married. I had kids in the 90's and went back to school until I got my degree in 2000. Last 9 years things have really come together for me professionally. I have lots of good things in my life, but lingering regrets over paths not taken.Seem to be kind of like a shark, if I quit swimming, I stop breathing. There's always something out there... and I can't stop looking until I find IT (whatever IT is). email: Spartan1961@yahoo.com

As a writer I found that kind of depressing (except the part about there being 3x as many words today as in Shakespeare's time).
It's also kind of biblical, as in Ecclesiates "There is nothing new under the sun" and Daniel's "in the time of the end, many do go to and fro, and knowledge is multiplied."
I've always fancied that our race will end when we've learned everything there is to know and the Big Dude says "hasta la vista" and heads a bit further out to start another multi-million year project.
I'm excited by the new possibilities and the opportunity for future travel and learning. I'm constantly seeking new input and experiences and am happy that my children are living in a time of great positive change.
Well I guess if you're going to be all positive and shit about it! ;)
Don't get me wrong, I'm still an incurable idealist, it's just that the burden of things in this world trying to "cure" idealism is a bit heavy sometimes.
Man, we've got some fucked up priorities, eh?
