Fenwick Q. Limpnicky is the owner and C.E.O. of twenty Fortune 500 companies. He owns over150 patents and 65 copyrights. His net worth is in excess of 70 billion dollars, three fourths of which is donated to philanthropic organizations. All of this in spite of the fact that he sleeps 18 hours out of 24. Fenwick would say “because of” instead of “in spite of” because he believes the most creative moments of life take place while our body is asleep. He agrees with scientists wh

After achieving worldwide fame and success Madame Rouge decided to leave the family business “La boutique Rouge” to her eighteen daughters. Although she keeps extremely busy sewing and creating a “children’s line” of clothing and accessories due to her many grandchildren, Madame Rouge felt guided to expand her creative energy into the field of artistic landscaping. She enlisted her oldest and dearest friends, forming the first geriatric lawn and garden design service. The lad

Here I am at ninty-seven enjoying my great great grandchild “Molly” at seven months. Her eyes look around in wonder and fascination at the world around her. Surrounded in love’s embrace, trusting that her voice and inner guidance will be met even though her “sounds” will not be recognized as language. I sense that same indescribable energy pulsing through my seemingly “aged body”. It’s as if Molly and I are one. Now we both share a common experience without the need for words

Ginger is a quiet, unassuming presence as she works at Wal-Mart during the day, but, whereas most people dress down when they come home from work Ginger dresses up! Upon entering her one room effi ciency after a hard day at the cash register she dons one of her fl amboyant creations, being an aspiring fashion designer. She feels this will keep her mind focused on her goal as she works every night on her innovative dress and hat designs. Wearing something beautiful and exotic

In life, Gwendoline always loved fish. She admired their beauty and grace and it saddened her that humans had to harvest them for food. By some wonderful cosmic justice, Gwendoline reincarnated as a magical ocean going vessel whose sole purpose and mission was to transport the most beautiful fish in all the earth’s oceans to a higher world where waters are crystal clear and free of pollutants, where there are no predators, and all the sea creatures live free and in total peac

Lorenzo is a severely sleep deprived man. As we see him here he has gone nearly six days without sleep. He will probably shut down soon for a brief nap but it’s certain it will be no more than one or two hours at most. Lorenzo is a driven man, a classic type “A” personality. He runs a successful lingerie business and is always traveling from one retail outlet to another, unlike his effeminate twin brother Luigi, who stays put in Florence as a highly recognized fashion designe

Marcelle was born in 1900 in the south of France and grew up with an inborn love for her country. As a little girl she read about history’s heroes and dreamed of being a heroine but for a petite little French girl it seemed hardly likely that this would ever become reality. By the time World War I erupted across Europe, she was a comely young woman. When the Kaiser’s forces occupied France and the national situation looked bleak, Marcelle decided to join the underground resis

Megan is a very talented lady, bringing commitment and creativity into her jewelry business. A sense of elegance and style exudes from her presence which has promoted her success and skill as an artist. When Megan walks into a room one is immediately taken back and all eyes are unavoidably drawn toward her. As with all truly charismatic people, a part of her appeal is truly a mystery…that enigmatic “something” that defies analysis. There is however, a very obvious and tangibl

Pete is a very contemplative dude, so much so that the doctors have diagnosed him as suffering from a condition known as “contemplatus aggravitus”. It seems that Pete can’t perform the smallest mundane action without intensely contemplative analysis of every tiny facet of it. Pete spends two hours brushing his teeth because the precise number of vertical and horizontal strokes must be pre-planned and balanced in his mind beforehand. Pete must calculate the exact thread count

Contrary to what PEDANTIC botanists believe, PEAS PROCEED into APPEARANCE in sequence, not simultaneously. Within the PETITE PARAMETERS of the POD a PETTY, PERPLEXING, and PERMUTATIONAL society PERPETUATES itself. In this PANORAMA of PEAS the first PERSONA to occupy the POD was the PRESENTLY PAINED PERCIVAL [on the bottom]. At first the POD was a PRIVATE PARADISE for PERCIVAL. He was young, smooth, and PLUMP. Now he is old and wrinkled by the PRESSURE of the PACK above him. H

Sam Clemens [alias “Mark Twain”] is considered by many to be the originator of modern American literature. He was possibly the first media superstar. By the year 1910 He was the most photographed man in the world; literally every day he was in the newspapers, and he was the top concert draw of his day with his phenomenally successful lecture tours. Inherent in his flamboyant personality was his flair for making a sartorial statement, most famously with his signature white sui

Mattie exerts a baffling magnetism toward all things metal. It was first apparent when at age five her daddy took her to a local hardware store and inventory started flying off the shelves, many objects clinging to various parts of her body. Luckily it is a low level force and not strong enough to lift any but small objects. It still produced alarm in her parents so they had extensive tests performed on her. They discovered a genetic anomaly that results in an electromagnetic

Books are Miranda’s whole world. Since the age of two she could comprehend the most sophisticated fiction, embrace the most elevated philosophy, grasp the most profound science and mathematics, all at the breathtaking pace of 6,000 words per minute. By age eight, she had read every book in her home town library. By age eleven, she had eared her master’s degree in world literature. By age fifteen, she had authored two best selling books. Miranda’s parents always knew their dau

Lady Jane Ashcroft has what most would consider an ideal life. She has three estates, a husband who has a seat in parliament, and is constantly surrounded by servants and all the aspects of absolute luxury one could possibly imagine. However, under her elegant veneer Jane is hiding a yearning discontent of heart. Her “perfect” existence feels vapid and hollow, not because of any inherent fault, but because of a secret and inner comparison going on constantly. Everything Jane

Ramon was born in Cuba in 1950, the son of veteran cigar maker Sancho. His mother passed on when he was but an infant, leaving him to work in the fields alongside his padre. He learned under Sancho’s expert tutelage the fi ne art of premium cigar making and soon became the obvious heir apparent of his father’s place as master cigar craftsman. When his father passed on and the Cuban embargo came into effect, Ramon smuggled himself and some tobacco seeds out of the country, end

In many ways Ricky and Lucy Ricardo are the prototype 1950’s sitcom couple, but in other ways they stand out as unique. Lucy’s appearance isn’t unlike Beaver’s mom, or Donna Reed with her pearl necklace, earrings, pert hair, and apron over a stylish outfi t, but her bright hair color, bugging blue eyes, and dark red lipstick distinguish her as the quintessential clown of the bunch. Like the others she played the dutiful ‘50’s housewife by letting her husband be the breadwinne

Rita looks up. That’s all there is to it. If she loses something she tells herself she can always gain something better. If any unforeseen mishaps come her way, she looks up to the fact that the future is a blank slate. “Tomorrow’s another day”. Any situation can unpredictably turn around. If her health is going through an issue, she looks up to a healthy future. If her funds are low she looks up to unlimited possibilities. To Rita, change isn’t cause for depression but for e

What is it that turns a strong man into a slobbering buffoon at the feet of  a gorgeous girl? Apparently there is a deeply entrenched  conditioning within the male psyche which feels compelled to project a seemingly unattainable object of desire. It then tends to place this impossible dream on a pedestal in teasingly plain view but still out of reach. This epitome of transcendant beauty will invariably take the form of “the most beautiful woman in the world.” To some extent t

Quint knew he was born for the sea. At age thirteen he ran away from home and stowed away on a fishing boat, undiscovered until they were halfway out to sea. He never looked back. In the years that followed he was on the water more then land and was taught everything there was to learn about seamanship. By his early twenty’s, he was owner and captain of his own fishing boat  and admiring crew, on his way to a successful career in the fishing industry. At that point in his adv
