A Colonial Native.
Paternal ancestors were Leiden Separatists, (chartered the Mayflower) Maternal greatGrandmother survived the Trail of Tears (the largest slaughter/displacement of American Indians) I am a Protestant first and foremost, but don't confuse me with your average Christian.
hobbies
My interests dive deeply into Christendom, from Ancient Egypt (specifically 18th & 19th Dynasty) on thru the Holy Roman Crusades, the Protestant Reformation, and the American Separatists.
talents
I read my Free Will Astrology in the Stranger (April, 26 2007) wherein it said:..You're capable of pulling off some unprecedented mixing and matching. You could figure out a way to blend oil and water, metaphorically speaking. And you might find a logical loophole that allows you to reasonably compare apples and oranges. But those examples represent only the most obvious ways your skills at juxtaposition could work. You might also, for example be a matchmaker for the son of a Saudi Arabian oil magnate and a Jewish Goth performance artist, or convince the Dalai Lama to have a summit with Paris Hilton" And though I don't tend to put much credulity on the weekly horoscope of the Local Alternative lifestyle periodical, I found myself thinking... .... Yeah! I can.I enjoy Graphic (non-Animated) Graphic Design. Though my passion is in research, fact checking and interviewing. Oh and , defusing the sporadic flame war.
