Welcome to my home page...
......................................................NOW GO HOME!

I'm kidding! ;-)

Come on in, have a drink (byob), mouse around, enjoy yourself. Some images have pop-up text that will show up when you move your mouse over them. Some are links to other pages. It's like a scavenger hunt to see what you can find!

Most of you stopping by to visit my page already know who I am, but I will tell you a few things just the same.

My name is Paul Turpin and I'm 2 of 4. I am also known (in certain circles) as Turp, Standing Bear, Soaring Eagle, or Rumi (as Deborah and I often refer to each other). There are other names which are less appealing, but not worth mentioning.

I am a self-proclaimed f*!&ing genius. If you doubt this, I can provide signed affidavits. However, anyone else's participation in this belief is comepletely unnecessary. Just the same, being one comes in handy now and then. You may find some photographic examples of my ever-expanding creative genious on these pages.

My purpose in putting up this web site is to share the stuff I have been doing with all of you. So, if you're not interested, like I said... go home! LOL

Here is my philosophy:
Every day I WAKE UP is a good day!

If you think that retired means nothing to do, I am here to prove that wrong. Retired means I get to pick from a list as long as your arm what I want to do that day. I am NEVER bored. :-) Being retired also means that, just like my cat Putt, I get to nap whenever and wherever I want!

On my other pages you can see some of the stuff that has been keeping me off the streets and out of trouble. I do kind of miss the carousing and chasing women, but, damn it, the good lookin ones run too fast these days! I have been chatting with some women online, and that seems pretty safe. If I want to walk away I just quit responding to them. Hmmmmm. Maybe it isn't that different from dating in person after all... but, hey, it's cheaper!

See ya 'round the corner,
PLT
