[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The boy known as Hawk neared his destination. He barely noticed how hard the climb had been in his excitement. He was almost there! Soon his new dream would be a reality! He once again marveled at the strange set of circumstances that lead to this moment. His luck had changed so much in such […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Bruce could not open his eyes. He willed his eyes to open, and nothing happened. He tried to lift his arm to rub his eyes, and nothing happened.

They are following the resources that are needed to meet their needs … whatever those resources, and needs, may be. […]
Can people change? Do they? I believe they can. I also believe that the vast majority don’t, at least not without serious motivation and effort. Once upon a time I was known as The Test Dummy. It’s not that I had no fear, but rather that fear never stopped me from pushing my limits. I […]
Much has changed in my life since I first introduced myself and this project. I am updating the site so it is more current to who I am today. It seems appropriate to modify my self-introduction as well. So here is the new and improved “Who the hell am I?”: If you are here on […]
