I wanted to go to med school. I didn't make it, but my daughter has. She has been an OBGYN Resident at Parkland Hospital in Dallas for 10 months and already delivered 190+ babies.

Highland Park

I attended Kindergarten (at McKinley?) because Highland Park didn’t offer it.

I am semi-retired; still managing money for clients who focus on Moderate Growth & Income investment objectives.

I retired from WFA on 1 Jul 2019. I hope to hear what my next career will be.

Since 3/08/2030, I am social distancing.

Graduating

I saw Satchel Paige at a Lions Club dinner in B’ville, and I met Nelson Mandela.

My son, Matt Kleinmann, is running for the open KS02 Congressional seat. If he wins the Democratic Primary on August 6, 2024, he will be the Democratic candidate for U.S. House District 02 in Kansas in the General Election on November 5, 2024.

Any U.S. citizen can donate to his campaign and help flip this open seat from Red to Blue, making Kansas even more Purple. #VoteInKleinmann

I'm not sure.

Skydive, climb Machu Pichu, live in Paris, visit Iceland again, breathe more deeply {I have an Auto Immune Disorder, Cryptogenic Organizing Pneumonia (COP) that presents like is Pneumonia but is not.}

COP therapy = long-term Prednisone; 14 weeks the first time and 8 weeks the second time. Symbicort inhaler; 2 puffs 2x daily.

I had a black 1963 Chevrolet Corvair coupe with red vinyl interior with a 3-speed manual transmission. I think it cost $400.

One of my fondest memories is of riding my bike (3 miles?) from near Highland Park Elementary to Sunset (?) Lake, north of Sunset C.C., to fish. I could be gone for hours. As long as my parents could find me there and as long as I was home for supper, all was okay. I had a paper route by then, so I was probably about 13 or 14.

Later, I drove my 1964 Corvair Coupe. It was black with red vinyl interior and had a four cylinder engine with a 3-speed manual shift. I wish I still had that car!

Our first grade teacher, Miss Metcalf, told me I would have kiss her at the front of the class “if you kiss Miss Kleinscmidt again”.

College. I went to OSU, then Concordia Senior College, then OU, then OSU, graduating in 1975.

Since I married, and especially since we had kids, every day. My family is my wealth and my happiness!!

I don’t carry a lot of cash; but, whenever I see a homeless vet or homeless mother, I give whatever I do have. Sometimes, I will buy something to eat and/or drink with my debit card and give it to them.

I had a paper route when I was 12.

We were on a Caribbean cruise that stopped in Haiti. We were rather uncomfortable there.

I was engaged to someone who attended College High School while we were seniors. ?


When she dropped out of college after one semester to work full-time, she wanted to get married the next summer. I broke up with her during the second semester and found a summer job in central Oklahoma, working on a farm.

Four years later, I had a blind date with Lesa Brewer, and we have been together ever since.

A very distant great grandfather was the Exchequer of England. He had a castle in Scotland and was a member of the King’s Privy Council.

One of my maternal great grandfathers was John Calvin Armstrong. My mother wanted to honor him by naming me after him.

See above.

People ask Lesa and me what we did so that our kids would turn out so well. D has a JD and is doing very well in the FBI. M is getting his PhD in Architecture. W is getting her MD May 2017.

As of July 2020, D completed 10 years with the FBI and joined the SEC in October 2019. M is ABD on his PhD and is working as a full-time Researcher in public health for a KU Med School/Children’s Mercy Hospital joint project. W is in her fourth year of an OBGYN Residency and is interviewing for a MFM Fellowship.

When I married my wife and when each of my three kids was born.

I believe God is a Spirit that started what we see, turned it lose to run according to the Natural Laws thereby put in motion, and intervened in rather limited ways. I believe that Jesus is the Son of God. (I think of him as like a Demigod as described by the Greeks; His Father is God, and Mary is his mother.) I think that Mary and Joseph had subsequent children, and I think it is likely that Jesus had a wife and children.

I also think that, in His or Her wisdom, God may present Herself or Himself in different ways to different people. Yahweh to the Jews, of course. Allah to the Muslims. Perhaps Buddha to the Buddhists. There are so many common threads that run through their scriptures that it wouldn’t surprise me.

I have observed over and over and over again that old “white” men have written history, including the Books of the Bible (and the scriptures of other religions), in a way that affirms their “rightness”, “correctness”, and control of societies around the world from era to era; and it has to stop.

As I am writing this, President Joe Biden announced that he is withdrawing from the Presidential campaign and endorsing VP Kamala (pronounced comma-la) Harris to be the Democratic nominee. I think this is the correct decision. Don Trump is a horrible person. I have known this ever since I had the opportunity to review a possible loan participation for a large Kansas City bank. I recommended against it because it was obvious that he was (and is) dishonest. Fortunately, the bank listened to me, and it avoided a huge loss when the Trump Organization filed bankruptcy, regarding that enterprise.

There is a reason why no bank in America will loan money to Don Trump or his organization. Rumor has it that only Deutsche Bank would lend to him and only after Russian oligarchs, who are huge depositors there, threatened to withdraw there funds, which would have caused a run on that bank. I think Trump is in the oligarchs’ pockets, and they are in Putin’s pocket.

YES, and I regard myself as a Christian; but I struggle with the concept of a Triune God. I try to love the Lord my God (God the Father, Yahweh, Allah) with my whole mind, heart, soul, and strength; and I try to love my neighbor as I love myself.

I think that God created the current Universe about 12.5,million years ago in what is commonly known as the Big Bang, that Earth was first formed 4.5 million years ago, and that (S)He created the human species through evolution that included Neanderthals, Homo Erectus, and several other hominid species.

I know that we are on track to eliminate the human species through man made Global Warming. It’s only a matter of time unless we stop using fossil fuels and we start reversing the inexorable increase in average temperature.
