My vital statistics and images have been on several SF thread posts, so won't add but one herein, as it has impacted the nature of who I am. I'm a small 135# man with mixed northern European ancestry. In California K8 schools, I was usually the smallest male in every class and also the youngest because I unfortunately started kindergarten a year early. My second grade teacher in suburban Sacramento, banned me and my 2 main neighborhood friends from playing marbles with others because so many others lost all theirs. By being on the bottom of the male size scale, I learned to be a peaceful, emotionally controlled, non-physically aggressive person.
As a single digit kid, I climbed a ridiculous number of oak trees, caught myriad fish, and played endless baseball. I was in a secret electronics career field in the USAF during the Viet Nam War. So have been around the block in society a few times and more. Had a career working at a peon level in numbers of corporations for very smart and skilled engineers. After becoming a senior, I was diagnosed with polycythemia vera, so would already be dead and gone were it not for modern medical science. I greatly enjoy Earth nature and would be content to experience the world forever, eternally. Well, as long as I could snow ski too. Oh yeah, am especially defenseless against, small thin women with pretty smiling faces.
