As a young adult, I was taught that a warrior not only engages in hand/foot combat and weapons, but more important were the subjects of medicine, art, music, and literature/ poetry.. One who traveled on foot to provide his skills to the people he met in rural areas and tought the Tao. Tao is translated as The Path or The Way and Its Virtues.
My dad remains my primary role model. Now rests in a place where war vets (WW II, Korea, and Vietnam {Special; Forces Lt. Col.} and later a Ph.D psychologist awaits for the rest of us. His love of Japanese traditions also compared to his origins from Scotland which led to myown journey into culturals.
I am a social worker in the medical field, I conduct home visits throughout the metro of Columbus,surrounding counties, and sometimes into distant parts of rural Ohio. I enjoy walks with Sparky, who is a Yorkie. I enjoy most landscaping projects some lasting as long as a year. Currently, I am removing a tree root system in order to next year install a bird sanctuary which the house's bay windows will look out upon. I have included a picture of the tree roots and The photo of me is a few years old when I was wearing contacts. Now I use glassses (so no one will hit me, LOL).
University degrees from Ohio State University and a BASW from Ohio Dominican. Presently enrolled at Columbus State now majoring in Business Management, as I have always found selling on eBay to be challenging, but fun.
My interests remain building relationships with customers and other sellers. Trained in the traditional ways of Asia, Scotland, and the Art of Gentlemanship at age 12. I have dabbled in the martial arts in both hard and soft styles since 1981. Have practiced traditional Taoism starting in 1982 and retain the spirit of Christianity from my birthright. I honor all who practice a tradition they know to be true and good.
Since you have read this far, let me pass on a few tips on finding deals. Look for new Powersellers who sell a little of everything. Poorly runs auctions (mispelled keywords, and auctions ending at odd times usually result in low bids. Or go with high level Powersellers who specialize in a few products and still save $100's on local retail prices.
I have several guides available including Cutco. Also insider information about USPS and UPS shipping services, and finaly winning your case against dead beat sellers. I wrote that guide in the days when eBay was like the Wild West, but now eBay has made great strides in self policing, so it is ready for another update. I also added reviews on my car, the 1970's Kung Fu tv series and my favorite horror movie as a kid (which still holds up to my classic sense of expectations).
