The Parallel Lives Of Daniel E Carpenter
Who is Daniel E Carpenter?, and what is this all about?
I am of course Daniel E Carpenter and, I thought I would take a look at a few of my many nameakes in the USA and what kind of lives and careers they are leading.
I was thinking about the many alternative lives I could have lead if I had made this choice or that choice. So many potential parallel.
Since we would be entering the realms of science fiction to play out what lives I could have lead, I decided to see what kind of lives other Daniel E Carpenters are leading instead.
Some of the results are a bit dull, but I AM writing this for all the Daniel E Carpenters out there … not the general public.
1. Me, the original Daniel E Carpenter
I am 62 I live in North Carolina with my wife Cyndy. I have two boys who both live in New York for some reason and I share a house with our two German Shepherds Max and Spam.
I am a software engineer for an international corporation and half love half hate my job. I retire soon,solets see if I miss or diss my old job in a few years.
I and also a self-confessed Seinfeld fan and nerd. I know all sorts of now useless facts about the show. When it was originally on TV I was almost cool with my facts and quotes, I would amuse guests with my quotes and wit. Now, unfortunately my deep knowledge is as obsolete as the Sinclair C5
I like to read about American history and was amazed to find out that Manhattan was bought by the Britsh from the Dutch for a bunch of nutmeg (that then quickly went out of fashion rendering it almost without value). But that is for another post.
2. Stealth Man.
There is a Daniel E Carpenter who has a Vimeo account. But darn it, he has not uploaded anything and leaves no links to his life or his current social media. Strikeout.
I sent him a message and hope to know more about our Mystery Daniel. I will update.
3. 32-year-old Daniel from PA
There is a Daniel E Carpenter that lives in Mount Joy, PA, he has an email address displayed and so I have contacted him to see what he is up to. Hope he shares a little info (obviously not the dark bits).
He spent a year in Georgia. That seems significant, still no more than that to work on. Maybe he had a failed marriage? Did he run for Governor? Who knows?
4. Way back in ‘39
The census for 1939 showed a Daniel E Carpenter that was born in 1939 and lived in Shasta, CA.
We don’t know much (again) about Californian Daniel, but his dad was 15 years older than his mother so … way to go Dad.
5. Another Stealth Daniel
What is it about us Daniel E Carpenters that we put nothing online?
Do the rest all know something I don’t? Maybe there is a hitman or a serial killer who only preys on Daniel E Carpenters?
Maybe I should keep my head down. Anyway, This Daniel has a Twitter Account but little else.
6. Finally, Daniel sticks his neck out
This guy has a photo…. ‘wow’. For a Daniel E Carpenter that is very brave (remember the serial killer?) he has a ‘ton’ (For our gang) of info about him.
Internet marketer, pizza lover and from 2010 to 2016 tweeted an impressive (for Daniel E Carpenters) 22 times. Compared to the rest of them, This Daniel is a veritable blabbermouth. He also has a massive 34 followers.
Then the trail goes dead in 2016. Maye the serial killer got him?
Reading back I can see that this is about as entertaining as watching paint dry for non Daniel E Carpenters.
So, go ahead and write your own parallel lives. Show me how it is done.
