Many thanks for the request.

Gary - nice to meet you, amigo! I see we have a sort of far east connection. My oldest son (30 y/o) lives and studies in Japan (Osaka) and I'll be visiting me sometime early next year. A Dem that has worked for large oil companies? LOL! Yikes! I thought that was illegal! ;)~~ Looking forward to coming to know you.
Hi Gary. Thanks for the friend request. I saw on your profile that you had spent time in Indonesia so I thought you might recognize that. My icon is a photo of a piece that hangs above our fireplace. It is a painting of the warroir Gatutkaca on a goat hide. We do have a set of the wayang kulit shadow puppets also. My wife is from East Java, Indonesia.
