My name is Thomas O. Tanner -- a bit of a redneck (but a well-read redneck) -- now 46 years old; grew up in Atlanta, GA, and moved to Thailand, for good, in January of 2013.

I was married for 13 years to a women who had become terribly manipulative and controlling. My wife and I didn't have have a whole lot of sex the last 10 years of our marriage. Probably because our comminication came to a grinding hault, for one reason or another.
