I was alone, until...




My wife, Cruz, and I were married in October of 1984. I knew her for four years prior to that time. Before I met her, I felt I was very alone, though I still always had the love of my family. There was something missing.

I thank God for giving me the gift of Cruz, my bride.

Here she is, several years ago, overlooking a part of Joshua Tree National Monument towards the Salton Sea (by Palm Springs).

We were visitng Key's View, a mountain top in Joshua Tree National Monument (now a National Park), wintertime in the desert of California.

Dan, I dunno if you're exactly mad at me in the post you put in my blog... are you? Well, I think that post of Mr. Townshend, “I Have a Decent Job - Thank you for asking”, a little snobbish, so I put my humble comment on blog telling that fans have some dignity running in their veins... only that... did you think I was disrespectful in my post? If I was disrespectful, believe me, it was not my real intention, really...

It may well seem that way, but Pete is a tuff guy. He has dished it out in his life, and I am sure he is very well aware of that. We are all worthy...he said so. Doggone it, what are we to do if we see what we see, and say so? He has always respected that. Pete knows what we are. He admits that he is really nothing, and really, neither are we...unless together we become...something! I'll send this to your blog in case you miss it...

Hey man, you're a little bit of scary, I mean, you're a big tough guy with former education in multiple weapons systems... well, I fear if I really pissed you off, you could catch me in the middle of the jungles with your high technology and blew my out to high spaces with your powerful weapons... ouch, this is really scare, but I think we're not in this stage, are we? :-/
Backing to a more easy stuff, did you see my answer to you in my blog regarding my South-American origin and how the Cruz name is common here in Brazil? And about the Castaneda stuff, what did you think, did you already buy anything from him?

This was on your blog...maybe you missed it, so here it is for you...

I am in no way mad or sad at you, my friend. I decided to give a bit of mild cryptic dose (I can get worse...) to my typing only to see if you were troubled and if you played that game....I saw a troubledness on Pete's blog with you and maybe someone. I thought I would be the counselor. If I was too obscure, I will be more clear next time.

On a lighter note, to the ape side of things...It is hard for me to speak to the free swinging ones that really know the world as you do. You guys in the trees have all the fun! ...But look for the parks, the buildings are much too stiff if you crash...ouch.

All in fun,
