An Introduction to me ! Who am I ? Hi all ! My name is Don Barone and I live in a moderate size city in Ontario, Canada. I am married and have been for 22 years. I have two beautiful daughters. Angelica, who is 15 and Marianna who is 10. I only finished grade 12 but since that time have read quite a bit. I guess I just found school very boring and finally decided to study just that which interested me which turned out to be: Ancient History, Speculative alternate history and all related fringe topics which included things like pole shifts, ancient astronauts and alien intervention in the past. Also I have dabbled in astronomy, geometry and the basic mysteries of our ancient past. For an idea of what I read go to the books in my library link which can be found on my home page. I have held a variety of jobs which include, surveyor, manger of an electronics store, manager of a carpet store, party chief building a Texaco oil refinery, letter carrier for 8 years, encyclopedia salesman, manager of a Dufferin Games Room store which sold pool tables, games, puzzles and various dart supplies, driving instructor for Young Canada and presently am working at a local furniture store where I sell furniture, appliances and electronics. Cheers Don Barone

Hi Don!
I like the Don Quixote signature! Who did that one? Actually, how do you put in a signature? It's rather cool. ;D

I think his nose is too big, his eyes too intense, and he is hiding the rest of his head because he is [bald] Charlotte

Most of my life I've spent my money on women, booze and fast cars. The rest, I've squandered.

Hi Daz That's a lousy story. Back home in South Africa we had a big problem with long-distance bus drivers. They are supposed to take breaks after a certain ammount of hours driving, but since the pay is lousy many take on extra shifts and/or leave out the breaks to get to the destinations faster. We've had some horrific accidents from drivers falling asleep or losing their concentration. One (half asleep) poor guy hit the accelerator instead of the brakes in an accident situation. He was fine, but 60% of his passengers were killed. He couldn't live with the guilt and killed himself a month later. Well.. this year has basically been a stinker for me and my husband as well. I'll be glad to see the back of it! Here's hoping 2004 sees us all with better prospects and better jobs! (I've been mostly unemployed since December last year) regards Michelle

I admit to being a 'Rogue', first of all......I spent much of my early adulthood as a benevolent Pirate. Yes, there is such a thing. I had a kubuki theater look going...courtesy of traveling to London and spotting my obvious doppleganger soul "Siouxse"...22 years ago....been a hairdresser for 22 years, too. I have 2 sons, we are all Gemini, and are turning 13, 24, and 44, in June 07. In a way we 'are' the 3 Bears! Love , marriage, and divorce....well you'll have to wait for my book to get printed... I have been a Mystic and traveling afar on my own since I could walk, as my mother recounts events. Apparently, at 18 months old I often was not at home when my parents woke up in the morning....they found me running around at the beach. I tell you as a mother , myself , I can't think of how horrified I would take that behavior! Started religiously watching "Dark Shadows" at 4 years old, daily! That has molded me!Always enjoyed the mysterious , unseen World! I used to focus on the candles during Mass on Sunday until all else disappeared. Or i'd stare at the statue of Mary cause the mouth was moving but I never heard the words...Latin Mass being said in the background.....I did feel the Spirit move once...at mass, goes right through your Heart Center chakra. I was extremely fortunate to have my 1st boyfriend's Father, from age 16 to last year's death, as a mentor and cohort in all esoteric realms and matters. He would read books and we would discuss them. Or I would explain the concepts to him.He was my greatest teacher in this area because he taught me that I knew! 26 years! We went through much. They had lost their son at 25 and went from born again Christians to New Agers. I reaped alot of benefit from their searching, much because I didn't have the impetus or time to search! I was bored in school and I didn't like the social scene. I got expelled from 10th grade for lack of attendence in about a month of starting the grade. I lived on the street for fun and I was an avid hitchhiker ( there was a bus that maybe came every hour). I loved to meet new people and hear their stories, quickly. I met all kinds of people! I am fortunate to be alive, Blessed Be! I hitched across the us at 17. To Vermont, Denver, Las Vegas to LA, to San Francisco and back to Florida. A Tale in itself. I had lived in Hillsborough, Ca., with my Grandmother for my 16th year.I used to hitch the El Camino for kicks, or hitch to the city, to the Haight. Another tale! I was back in Fla. , because my 1st boyfriend , that I had met during a Christmas visit back to Fla., that year, flew out to convince me to come live with he and his parent's. Young Love, we were only 16! I ended up that May doing so.Hitching crosscountry was to leave the relationship to him....though his dad and I never parted adeep friendship, I think he was my 'real' dad, he was the one I could tell anything to, as my own Father was always 'contrary'!!! Blessed Again! Let's speed up to Today: I'm on with my insights and opinions on PaganPath,Ravensgrove, Graham Hancock's Message Board, HERE!, and Whitley Strieber's. I say exactly, from my experience and point of veiw. I've done alot and been many personalities within even myself, I keep my life interesting and it keeps me interested! I have accepted myself as culminated, as defined: "Witch"....about as eclectic as they come, for I believe in "Eveything". For the rest you all will have to wait for the book. It's in Journals but transcribing is a technical difficulty, as is time!
In good time, all good things will be revealed......
BB, Ghia/NEKHBET/Christine
