I like not having a conversation that doesn't need to be had. Simplicity is useful when the mind doesn't feel it necessary to empty itself constantly. I like the occasional pause, the itinerant journey, the time slowed and can appreciate what you have to share.
Find me an adventurer, collector, designer, writer, outdoors-man, artist... I enjoy conversation, food, cooking, friends, ideas, inventive objects-minds, interior designs, decorating, landscapes, photography, architecture, history, travel, antiques, timeless craftsmanship and you, maybe. Why NOT?!?
I am a Mississippian and have a knack for living. I've been to the world and have come back to myself.
Enjoy your visit: say hi and share anytime :)

“While anyone with a Hot Wheels track growing up might know that the stunt can be done, a real-world reenactment with a real car and real driver is so dangerous it is referred to as the “Death Loop” by professional stuntmen. While it might seem that a driver could merely power in at a high speed to carry enough momentum to complete the loop, the truth is that the g-forces on the driver at anything above 30 mph can be catastrophic. So stuntman Steve Truglia trained with jet pilots to learn techniques that would help him deal with the centripetal forces.
The car also had to be chopped to increase its approach and departure angles. He had to enter the loop at precisely 37 mph, then immediately slowed to 16 mph as the modified Toyota went up and over.”
