I'm what my handle states - an Oldude. The problem with this acknowledgment is my thinking and ambitions have not quite got the message of my "oldness". I've started an online behavioral health clinic and my rant is about how to improve long term happiness - For the World.

My thing, I believe I can change the world - isn't that a hoot. The way I intend to change the world is to foster a wider and deeper appreciation for "hipness": The daring, flair and grace of Jeeyz; the political savvy of Cornel West; the creativity of Mos Def with the business and cultural daring of Richard Simmons.

I've thought enough - being a philosopher of sorts - and trained hard with some of the sharpest minds ever on the planet - Cornel West and Michel Foucault to know the total absurdity of trying to change the world - but I do and I will.

There it is showing my age again.
