An alien abduction/contactee's life and the experiences he went through as a result of his contact with beings from another planet and dimension. From the moment he experienced a past life review of contact events his life was altered in a way few can imagine. How does the contact experience interact with the paranormal? Ghosts? The deceased? Heaven? Shamanism? His search for the truth as he sets out on a lifelong pursuit of who these beings are and what it means to him.

Like many adoptees, Don Anderson wanted to know where he came from. But would he be setting himself up for disappointment by searching? Would he discover parents who were not alive-or worse, parents who didn't want to know him? Would he be able to find them at all?Paper and Spit chronicles Anderson's journey. Follow him every step of the way, from filing his first application in 1995, to obtaining information from the adoption agency that placed him, to knocking on his maternal aunt's door in 2001, to finally confirming the identity of his father in 2015.Using DNA and genealogy, Anderson finds not only the identity of his birth parents but also his true ethnic heritage. In his relentless pursuit, he attends conferences, classes, and studies-and he never gives up his search. Anderson discovers that his connection to his roots is stronger than he realizes-and once he reconnects, he never lets go.Paper and Spit is filled with suspense, disappointments, breakthroughs, and climactic moments that make it a great read. Even if adoption is not your story, Anderson's memoir will inspire you to find the roots of your identity and heritage.

My motivation for writing the "Dad Rants" was to convey to my kids in writing their dad's philosophy for living, and for decision making. They would then have a record of their dad's thoughts for posterity. My wife and I have held as a primary foundational principle that it is imperative that children be imbued with the moral code. This is the number one objective in the raising of children. Children arrive to this world as selfish savages. The objective is to move them towards becoming selfless saints. Our secondary foundational principle is that it is imperative that they learn to utilize evidence based reasoning in their decision making process. The biggest mistakes in life are made when decisions are made out of emotion, and not based on evidence. So in the rants the reader will note the stress placed on evidence based reasoning. All flat assertions must be backed by the evidence to support those assertions. No exceptions! An additional foundational principle is that communication must be accomplished in a manner that the receiver will hear the message. For this reason, the "Dad Rants" are written in the informal, laid back language of my youth. I have purposefully avoided the formal language of the academy because I am not writing for that audience. "The Dad Rants" are designed to express, not to impress. It is my sincere desire that other parents seeking to communicate to their children the importance of the moral code, and how to apply the practical application of reason to life's many challenges will find the rants helpful.Viva Cristo Rey!
