    John's Interests
General

Helping others get what they want -- if they are willing to work for it.

I am interested in building my marketing business and helping others in the process.

I read everything if it sits still long enough and love science fiction in most of its forms.

I love to play guitar and banjo.

I don't get to see my daughter or grandkids as much as I would like.

Music

I have an eclectic taste in music and listen to classical, classic rock, and bluegrass most of the time. I like some country and folk songs, too

Movies

Favorite movies include Flashdance, all Star Trek and Star Wars movies, most Mel Brooks movies, classics like Casablanca, 12 Angry Men, It's a Wonderful World, Miracle on 34th Street, African Queen, Adam's Rib, and most science fiction and action adventure movies.

I recently saw What The Bleep and The Secret and enjoyed them very much. I'm learning about the Law Of Attraction and I can see it working in my life.

Television

Favorites include the Today Show, 60 Minutes, Meet the Press, Stargate SG1, MacGyver, original Star Trek series, West Wing (sorry to see it go), NCIS, and others. In general, if I like a show it's the kiss of death and the series will be canceled in the next season.

It is no exageration to say that the original Star Trek series changed my life. It gave me a dream of a better future and I decided to master computers. I learned to do in real life what Spock pretended to do, and I have no doubt that the library computer from Star Trek was a vision that played an important part in the birth of the Internet.

Books

Stranger in a Strange Land, Think and Grow Rich new expanded edition, The Law of Success, The Art of War, The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, the entire Pern series, and hundreds of others - far too many to mention.

Heroes

I don't have heroes. I recognize greatness in some people, but I don't worship or idolize anyone. "Hero" is a greatly-overused word these days.

About me:

A Little Background

I've done many things over the last few decades. In addition to working at a couple of psych hospitals helping adolescents, I've taught computers and programming at a couple of colleges, and owned my own computer consulting business.

I've taught hundreds of people how to use their computers more effectively and I've consulted for lots of companies ranging from individual proprietorships to top-50 international corporations.

Now, I'm a full-time caretaker for my Mom and earn my living through Internet marketing, which allows me to stay home full-time and still have money coming in.

Mom gets to live at home instead of going to a nursing home, and I get to meet new friends on the Internet.

I'm a full-time marketer and my primary blog is located at: http://JohnDilbeckAndFriends.com

My primary websites are located at:
http://AYearFromNow.com
http://JohnDilbeck.com

Who I'd like to meet:

I'm not sure. It's not something I speculate on too much. If there is someone I really want to meet, I try to set things into motion to make it happen rather than just write about it.

Happy Birthday to a wonderful friend.

I'm wishing, for you, all of the best things in life... although I know that you are already enjoying a richly rewarding life in all of the truly meaningful ways.

I'm lifting a glass of wine to toast to your good health, happiness and prosperity!

You are the best. :)

All I Need to Know About Life I Learned from the Easter Bunny


Don't put all of your eggs in one basket.

Walk softly and carry a big carrot.

Everyone needs a friend who is all ears.

There's no such thing as too much candy.

All work and no play can make you a basket case.

Everyone is entitled to a bad hare day.

Let happy thoughts multiply like rabbits.

Keep your paws off other people's jellybeans.

The grass isn't always greener in someone else's basket.

An Easter bonnet can tame even the wildest hare.

To show your true colors you have to come out of your shell.
