About Me
-
Describe Yourself:Serious corporate guy by day; irreverent blogger by moonlight.
Have friends in many places ( I've worked in different parts of the country.)
When I make friends, I keep them. Still in touch with a tight group of guys from University.
Really diverse: love the country (horseback riding, hiking, canoeing, gardening, cycling, historical sites) and big cities (serious music, theater, and great food).
Somewhat posh (descended from long line of clergymen!), but have roots in small towns and the country.
Bookish (will argue through the night in cafes and lofts). Religious (Episcopalian) and adventuresome, love to travel and love to curl up at home. Set up movie nights with friends each winter.
Have done some writing -and been published. (Mostly professional stuff, not something from the drawer full of unfinished novels and poems.)
Like people who are calm and confident, committed to something - job, art, politics, spirituality, etc.
Can't deal with superficiality, screaming, bigotry, poseurs, etc.
Grateful for the great tide of good wine from all parts of the world, the consistently-great restaurants in my neighborhood (Flatiron), and for antique prints, ancient coins, rare books,and enameled glass with which my flat is littered. -
On Gather, I'm Looking For ...:Decency, fellowship, goodwill, wit, and humor.

Angela M., Sep 25, 2010, 10:22AM EDTDear Peter,
I have written a blog that I wanted to share with you.
It is not just another generic post, it holds a personal question for you.... I hope you will take a second to look at it.
If you click on the blue writing below it will take you to my blog.
Do you have a need or something in your life that you would like prayer for?
Take Care,
Angela

Dame Ruth, Chief Executive Elitist D., Nov 24, 2009, 1:21PM ESTI thought it was weird that you didn't show up on my friend list, too. Situation has been corrected. Stand down.

Kris M., Nov 4, 2009, 11:32PM ESTDid you see the recent Ken Burns documentary about the National Parks? I thought of you more than once while watching it. I found it utterly fascinating.

Mina I., Oct 12, 2009, 10:46AM EDT-- Hi, Peter. I viewed Cape Cod & N.Y. postcards on Gather this Mon. a.m., 10/12/09. Art, history, & the great outdoors interest me. Yellowstone Natl. Pk. offered me summer job but past employers wouldn't provide ltr. of recommendation. None! In Vt. now I walk on Missisquoi Valley Rail Trail as often as possible. --

aniko , Jul 4, 2009, 3:42AM EDTI'll make sure I'll publish all of that, Peter--here and on FB, MS, Twitter, and whatever else is there, so absolutely no one will miss it.

Honore Montgolfier, Jun 20, 2009, 12:53PM EDTPeter, I declined the photograph of the soldier and the article about the Cousins because they are not postcards.
I hope that you understand; you told me to be "ruthless" about the group.
