http://www.indopubs.com/biodata.html. My rice bowl and daily bread: http://www.indopubs.com/archives2.htm. Personal blog: http://tidsandbits.blogspot.com. Professional blog: http://reconsiderations.blogspot.com. Monitor new postings via http://www.bloglines.com. Photos: http://www.flickr.com/photos/bumbuayamgoreng (public photostream only). Google me if you are really very curious. This is my second incarnation on Friendster. In person (off the net), I am hopelessly friendly, funny, lovable, and entertain visitors (by arrangement) to the DC metro area. No longer can run the 26 mile marathon. Strolls only.

Faithful emailers who open up, stay open, implement their ideals, and reflect on our lives and times. Calm, witty people of any sex, age, ethnicity, or nationality. Being scholarly is great if you want, but no pretensions (I am a tough, honest critic). I will add you right away if you decide to join my Friendster knowledge workers project described at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/indonesian-studies/message/4831. The project blog: http://uttersimplicity.blogs.friendster.com/simplicity. Preferred address for non-Friendster email: johnmacdougall@comcast.net. Use English, Indonesian or Portuguese. Also Russian or Italian (I am of Russo-Italian descent, despite my surname). Pinyin only. Replies to messages in Arabic, Turkish, Farsi, Urdu, and Hindi will be delayed. Also Perl and Elmer Fudd. :-) Can be available for IMing on Yahoo! Messenger and Skype. Best times: when you see me online here. I also use Skype-to-Skype and SkypeOut for net phone calls (video version).
