Working on it


Ran 10 miles yesterday. Not bad for a 55 yr old dude w/ asthma, high blood pressure and a heart muu-muu.

Then I had planned on staying at home (yes, i still live there..) until my friend "Barney" called.

There went my 10 mi run.

Running is good for my soul. The freedom of locomotion. The weather of course, is changing, becoming cooler which affects my astma (must remember to get a new inhaler). This time of year however, the colors of the trees, the intense blue of the sky, it's awesome!. I run into the countryside. Sometimes where I grew up. Brings back memories.

Oh, well, just a short blog today, 'cause tonight I WILL write about the next influential person in my life. I am skipping two others momentarily, because my friend called me the other day "out of the blue". I was reminded of the times we had which I definitely have to write about.

If I have offended some of you with my postings, I apologise. I must say that there will be things in the future that I shall write which may become more offensive to some. To that I say, "turn off the TV". This blogsite is my story, my life. It's an interpretaion of the World's most "Unfamous" Artist. It is an epitaph to my life and in turn I read it myself to figure out what the heck, and where do I go from here?! It is a "Chronological History of the Artist". Should I die tomorrow not having completed my works of art, this blogsite will explain how one person at least tried (late in life) to fullfil his dreams, desires and passions and the most definite reasons why some of it did not culminate.

It is the other side of John Lidecker that most of you never met. I'm the "fun guy", the "drunken sot artist", the "push-over"....I could go on, that most of you know. There are the few that know the other side, the serious, the knowledge seeking, the naive, the passionate.

So, it is with this blogsite that I tell my story of my life. As I said in an earlier blog, to quote one of my favourite musicians, "Some of it's tragic, most of it magic..."

Peace.
