Boomer child (1946-64). Presently divorced. Childless by choice.

Returned to school in 2003. Expect to graduate '08 with degree in Political Science and a minor in Media Communications.

I believe in reproductive choice.

I believe that our thoughts and actions determine our destiny, not the stars.

I wear no religious label. I live by a simple creed, a combination of "Do what you will, harm none," and the Golden Rule.

Likes: history, political theory, the arts...

Dislikes: hypocrisy whether religious or political, raw oysters, spinach, and the handful of people who make life miserable for the rest of us.

Regrets: A few. I should have paid more attention to ole Ben Franklin's advice about marriage: "Keep your eyes open before marriage, and closed afterwards".

A note about my profile name. A former ladyfriend often call me a "heathen" because of my persistent refusals to attend church. I kind of fancied the label and later added happy to it because, unburdened by the stress of raging against other folks sins, I get to happily enjoy my own. <smile>
