Free CardReading. This will provide 118 page reading. This started out as a java script homework project, which utilized the fortune telling cards that I designed sometime back. Unfortunately it only works with internet explorer. The scrip keep no information and send no information, its only a test program, for a homework assignment, but it is fun to use, and it is used by lots of people every day.

Graph paper. I did a design for a graph paper, then produced this flash animation to describe it. Hour Glass Runes, or Elfin Runes, This scrip is available as a FONT.

About myself,

I am a man of many talents and very divers interests.

Art, Science, Business, and even lent a hand in criminal investigation work.

And pray for my son’s safe return from the marines.

Project that I’m involved in at the moment are:

Several Stories, Science Fiction and Science Fantasy. They are involved and span across many novels.

Dock Side Comics is a fun diversion that keeps me out of trouble.

Making my own cologne, perfumes, and oils.

Working on the science behind a principle that could make transmission of information and power possible over vast distances.

Finish working on a power cell that uses low grade radioactive material to produce long term reliable power.

A propulsion system that uses microwave from a common magnetron. It worked in tests but I still don’t know why it works.

Raising money for countless charity drives.

Also I do perform a few weddings and funerals from time to time upon request, as I am a minister.

I may also be working on other inventions, scientific principles and theories and or just studies that interest me at the time.

My carrier is slowly being forced into retirement because of complex and debilitating reoccurring heath issues. I will work as long as I can, and as long as companies will have me.

My work history is almost as divers as my interests. Having family members in the trades provided an abundance of training, from plumbing, carpentry, masonry, commercial artists, electricians, and even heavy equipment. When I was just a boy I was privileged to sit in actual race cars, also I was small enough to fit in and steer it into the paint shop. When other boys played with toy tractors I drove real bulldozers, front-loaders and more. Just to fuel them up, or bring them out to the work sight.

As a boy out in the sticks, I enjoyed horse back riding western style, fishing, chemistry, photography, rocket making, electronics, and taxidermy.

Did my fair share of snow plowing and even once by police order, its nice to be a small kid on a big tractor. Pulling cars out, clearing drives that were way too long for safe wither time access of the elderly owners, and when caught by the police, had to keep the roads passable. It did pay rather well as I remember.

Once a scuba instructor of mine who also did work did work collecting bodies for the morgue, took me in. I learned a lot in a very short time. People find some dumb ways to die. It was a bit much for a 14 year old, but I have to admit it did give me respect for guns, cars and stupidity.

At an early age I learned that one can do almost anything. All job provide training. If you pick things up quick enough, you may not be what they want at the start, but after a short time you would be surprised at what you can master. Find what they need most and become good at it.

I find enjoyment in helping others, teaching them what I know, sharing my experiences.

Dock Side Comics is a creation of mine, inspired by the occurrences on the dock. Since moving from Chicago to Florida for health reasons, I found a 27 foot sailboat that became my residence for a time. Computers and all fit snugly aboard. This adventure provided an endless supply of material and is still providing even though I no longer live on the boat. A quiet condo on the water has to do for now.

One of the businesses that I started, my graphics business was quite successful in many ways. It did turn into a 24 x 7 nightmare after a time, so I sold it. But one of the more interesting projects was a deck of cards for fortunetelling. That gave me recognition with a group of manufactures, publishers and artists called the international Tarot society in Chicago. A java script homework assignment still receives a great number of hits every day. It does card readings, using the cards I designed for publishing. That lead into a business that I never would have thought to try, fortunetelling. I have been called into perform for high-end parties, but mostly charities. Hospice, Cancer, Domestic Violence are only a few of the charities I have raised money for, and continue to support and raise money for.  

My computer work started for the most part with Sear. That is Sears Consumer Finance Banking Financial Planning and Analysis for all of Sears Corporation and all its subsidiaries. This was my break into doing complex statistical reporting at a presidential level. My coworkers were CEO’s and as a part time contractor having more then one secretary was a very unique experience for me. That led into many other companies, most not to the same level or challenge.

Around this time I started to pursue some of my independent research and studies, on an invention or two. Some of these are still continuing to this day. Threw these pursuits I have worked with companies such as Allied labs, Lockheed, Northrop, Aerospace, and other divisions of the government. If I had more funding when working with these institutions and divisions, I sometimes wonder what could have been accomplished.

At one time I looked to separate myself form the corporate white collar experience to a less stressful one, so I did, tool and die work, factory and warehouse work, so I can drive a fork truck to a dump truck. I can work almost any type of production and assembly system, and that really helped when I started to work for Motorola in the Cell phone and Satellite Phone development center, a truly fantastic company to work for.

Then I found my way into the security field, and had at one time over 600 employees, as I did scheduling for a very large chunk of the Chicago area, and outlying suburbs. But that was not what I wanted, so I started a Graphic Business.

Then worked for worked for the Pharmaceutical companies in the computer field, Abbott Labs, Tap Pharmaceuticals, Hospira, and others. Data base work was always fun for me. The challenge to get systems that are not designed to communicate together was my specialty. Any system, any database and any platform could be linked shared, populated and reported across. I didn’t know what data mining was but that was what I was doing. I just wrote the software to achieve the results I needed. That led into doing Operations, Having no experience in it, didn’t stop then from getting me to do it. So I learned quickly how to assemble, rack, and install, then build servers. Manage, wire networks. Backups and archive a wide range of systems including old archived systems that have to be kept. And so much more.

Now in my demised heath, I look to keep myself busy, helping others, helping small businesses when I can, contributing to charities. Always learning something new, how to sail small to large boats. Studies of navigation, boat maintenance, ship handling and more, I love the sea. I find that I need to be by the water. I seek to find my solace and peace with friends and relatives that have been gravitating to Florida with me. Here I can do my writing and here I can do my art. I can continue my studies and research, though that has become very difficult so it progresses slowly at best.
