- About Me
- I'm a retired tool & die maker, presently living in the hilltown of Chester, Mass. with three cats. I'm a life member in American Atheists. My hobbies are reading, writing "Lord of the Rings" fan fiction, raising giant silk moths, fireworks, and building stone walls.
My other interests include: American Civil War history, archaeology, paleontology, entomology and forestry.
I'm a secular humanist, but I am an atheist first. My personal philosophy is inspired by a quote from Thomas Paine:
"The world is my country; humanity are my bretheren, and to do good deeds is my religion."
