Dennis replied to a comment by Rory M. on Mixed Dominance? What's That? Nov 06, 2009 8:24PM EST

"Hi Rory. Nice to see you. My theory is that almost all lefties are really mixed dominant, but that is from personal observation of those around me, not any scientific testing." more

"Hi Nyota glad you joined in. You just might be to some degree. Found out that trick with writing simultaneously. Did not think to try it with drawing. For me though the left hand tended to copy in mirror . . ." more

About Me

People say I'm:

Relaxing to be with; I allow them to be themselves.
Describe Yourself:

Born November 8, 1953 in Kingston, Jamaica, second and until 1959, middle child. Moved to live with my father's parents in Alley, Clarendon at 2 years old while my parents were in England earning their degrees. My brother & sister went to the other grand parents, but we saw each other often.

It is a strange feeling when you have to be introduced to your parents. They returned when I was almost 6 (forgotten them completely). Mom cried and cried, vowing never ever to leave us again.

Questioned just about everything I was taught while growing up. Did Jesus exist? Yes. Does the Bible contain God's words? Yes. Do all good persons go to heaven? No we all go to Hell, some come back. God is not a trinity. Gave my parents and teachers a hard time. Raised Baptist, Jehovah's Witnesses converted me easily.

My wife is trying very hard to aculturalise me. Still disagree that shoes are to be worn at all times. Kick them off as soon as I get home.

Hi Dennis, On the life and death issue, I am a fairly realistic person and some things are better in theory than in practice. My supposition is that reform has to come from within, whether it is the system, or the courts. It is a very polarizing issue, that's for certain. Your pings weren't showing until I went to my profile BTW.

Hi Dennis: Something has gone wrong. I have received a number of notices that pings (including yours) have been posted to my profile in the past few days, however when I go there the last one showing was posted on 28 October. I don't know what happened to the ones posted after that date. So I didn't see yours.

Thanks for the friends add, Dennis. I will be writing what I can. I am getting a bit disappointed by politics, so I turn to pholosophy and reminisce. Life is often bittersweet.
