: About Me

Hi everyone. I'm 58 with the mindset of a 25yr old. That's great as long as I'm not asked to do anything that requires the manual dexterity or strength of a 25yr old.

Having said that, I am a retired banker who is now enjoying the benefits of parttime work. I am a parttime mortgage broker, a freelance writer and a local comedian.

I, as most writers probably do, enjoy reading many different types of books. In addition to reading, I also play the guitar and on a quirky note, I am a competive knife thrower.

My educational background oddly enough is in Industrial Technology. I know what you're thinking...Why did he become a banker. Well, the truth is, I loved the IT field but not much people contact in this profession. I love people so I deceided to become a banker.

I look forward to meeting you here at Helium and I would love it if you email me with your thoughts.

Over and out...
JT

In thoughts, you appear as my mentor helping to guide me on my journey. In thoughts, you help guide me along my path as we walk hand in hand towards that unknown shadow. In thoughts, we share each other's pains and sorrows, yet through the love we share, we convert them to happiness. In thoughts, together we challenge the fear of despair and the darkness of ignorance. In thoughts, we sing the joyful s...
