These pages include some of the work I've done over the last 30 plus years. During that time I've held a variety of jobs for anywhere from 6 months to 10 years. They've included: graphic designer, woodworker, musician/guitarist, sales, stockroom, antique restorer, Cantor, law firm courier/supervisor, mailroom/copy center, silkscreener, picture framer, truck driver, camp counselor, newspaper ad designer and most recently a website builder. As with my previous occupations, I find the more I learn, the more I realize what I don't know.

I've also taught classes to children and/or adults in art, guitar, woodworking, calligraphy, Tai Chi and Mac & Win computers.

As I enter my second fifty years, I hope to decide what I want to do for a living some day soon - or not.

A dream message:

& the digital clock

It was 2:30 a.m. as I tossed in bed unable to sleep. In the darkness all I could see were the bright red numbers of my digital clock. The minutes passed and it was 2:34. I noticed that the numbers were sequential - 2 3 4. I started thinking about what other numbers could be sequential on a digital clock. Of course there's 1 2 3 as in 1:23. Then there's 2 3 4, 3 4 5 and 4 5 6. That's as high as you can go because there's no such time as 5:67. So 4:56 or 6:54 are the highest sequential numbers that can be displayed in digital time.

As what felt like hours passed, still unable to sleep, still staring at the red glowing digits of my clock, I began noticing the structure of the numbers as most digital clocks display them. The number 1 is not a single line but made up of two vertical dashes, one on top of the other. As my monkey mind wandered I started counting how many dashes made up each individual number. Here's what I found.

number dashes

	6
	2
	5
	5
	4
	5
	6
	3
	7
	6

Once again 4 5 6 came up. The highest sequential numbers that can be displayed and the only three numbers that are made up of the same number of dashes as the number represents.

yah? so?

Oxymoronics

I can resist everything but temptation.

The important thing is to be sincere. Once you can fake that, the rest is easy.

I wouldn't be so paranoid if everyone weren't against me.

Thank God I'm an atheist.
