| Introduction | Naturalist by devotion, humorist by genetics, hero by default; Kamaroh is a Republican, a Presbyterian, a Polio surviver, a former US Marine, & Great Plains Badger. Earned an MA in English from SFSU. Student & friend of novelist Kay Boyle. His blog is a no profanity zone. There is little edgey emotionalism if he avoids thinking about his children. Kamaroh is a masculinist, places value on fraternity & believes living stag is a responsible and manly option. Particularly apreciative of the charm of Asian females, he discovered in 1999 he is able to love one small lady to the extreme that thinking about her can make his nose bleed. From boyhood forward, he values having male friends & male role models; though this blog is an extention of that belief; it is all welcome. Though containing male posturing, biased poetry, shakey facts, & faulted bachelor housekeeping, this blog's intent is to be good for your health & contains no spanky material. Pardon me if I am speaking too loudly because even with the high tech ... hearing aids the Veterans Administration provides to me, I do not have normal hearing. |
| Interests | (FOLIO ONE) Nature, Hiking, cultivating plants, The YMCA, San Francisco, Men friends, Despite a lack of press, having the ... to present one's history as heroic & to do so in a positive spirit. Asendence: the triumph of the common man: I delight in & am excited by unsung hero stories--suddenly appearing seemingly from out of nowhere to be struck as if by lightning by success. Challenging circumstance and people who define you by yours! Enjoying the ability of mother nature to calm one's thoughts. Keeping a definition of myself loose.Personal guidance by self-acceptance, courage, and meditation. Fresh cognitions gained through positive imaging. Trying to establish a peaceful relationship with Margaret Yang, my Oriental muse, who unremittingly raises a ruckus in there to inform me of her permanent residence in my heart. I also enjoy jade, vintage guitars, photography, & muscle cars. I collect paintings & other odd old items. I acquire quite a few books as they always get in my path. Now-a-days I am again reading biographies of Public men; some are my heroes; some are not. (FOLIO TWO) Blogging of course. Intended as a continuation of my blog, "The Unsung Hero", this blog soon let me know that it, not I, was in charge of content. Once that was sorted out, I started blogging based on some notions of life that I once held on to, but given that at my present age I seem to have forgotten what most of those ideas were, I decided to relinquish further harsh attempts of content control & intend to let the blog & my emerging voice say what they would! DISCLAIMER: The writings herein are sometimes not the truth. I have manicured many of the elements for my own purposes. Years ago, I studied writing under the direction of novelist Kay Boyle who carried a big stick when critiquing her student writers & given the weight of that experience!, I am usually not casual with how I serve words on the plate. |
| Favorite movies | I have probably thinking about "Proposal" with Sandra Bullock more than any other movie lately.. I am writing a short story that includes a critique of it.Most of the movies I watch are VHS that I collect here and there. I am starting a list of them. |
| Favorite music | Dave Brubeck, "Take Five!" George Benson, "Breezing" Van Morrison, "Moondance" Earl Klugh, "Traveler" I listen to the blues a little bit--I prefer female blue's artists. I like some Country Western, Johnny Cash & Dolly Parton come to mind. I also listen to random clasical music at night sometimes when I am too restless to sleep. I wear hearing aids so unfortunately I have a lot of difficulty understanding lyrics, like rythm best, and so my music list is very short. |
| Favorite books | The Great Gatsby by F. Sctt Fitzgerald; Winesburg Ohio by Sherwood Anderson; Nog by Rudolph Wurlitzer; and Plays by Ibsen. Of course beyond the platform of these three books, I have a huge and wiley reading menu of mostly male biography. |

I would wear suspenders or braces as I always do.
