Hello,
I am MacMannus. I am a member of the LDS church. Prior to becoming a Latter Day Saint, I was a pentecostal preacher (I had my own church but didn't accept pay for my preaching.). I am 57 years old with a wife and two grown boys. I belong to Mensa and am learning Spanish, German, Russian, Japanese, Arabic, and Chinese in that order. I am disabled; consequently, I have plenty of free time. In the past I was a Master Dog Trainer, a Tractor Trailer Instructor and cross country driver, a construction foreman, and a factory foreman. I attended Penn State University where I major in psychology and The Writing Option (that was back when they still had terms and the terms were less than four hundred per term.). I was on the Deans list for all but one term of my 3 and 1/2 years.
I guess that should be enough. My hobbies were Martial Arts for nearly forty years and flying planes and skydiving.
Yes welcome. That is impressive. I would have been in Mensa but I didn't score high enough on any tests...I am also studying a language called English (I am almost fluent now). I was chased down by a dog one time, probably one you trained. I graduated from high school with a 2.2 or something and I was always on the principals list.
It seams we have a lot in common. Looking forward to your posts.
