I am a professional spray painter that worked for Cessna Aircraft in Wichita, Kansas from 1980-1986
was laid off and went to work for Boeing in April 1986 which is now Boeing again!!! in Wichita,Kansas. I am currently employed there and have 40 years of aircraft experience.
I seek no fame or fortune, Iโm just the average guy thatโs trying to make an honest living and provide for my family.
I am a proud American, a Soviet Jew, a patriot, and an IT professional. โSocialism is the philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy.โ
โThe inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings. The inherent virtue of Socialism is the equal sharing of miseries.โ โ Winston Churchill

My first calling was as a musician and songwriter...I was fortunate enough to have a good run...Some songs from a friend of mine you never heard but might like...

Friend of mine once told me this lyric should be stitched on a pillow:
"I believe that life is for living and love is the axis on which we turn
We bare our souls till all is forgiven
and clothe ourselves with the lessons learned"

A favorite quote from a favorite author:
โA human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.โ
โ Robert A. Heinlein
...and one I saw on a studio wall in Nashville:
โNever attempt to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and annoys the pig.โ
โ Robert Heinlein, Time Enough for Love
OK...one more...
โA dying culture invariably exhibits personal rudeness. Bad manners. Lack of consideration for others in minor matters. A loss of politeness, of gentle manners, is more significant than is a riot.โ
