Look Alive

John R. Sabine is now well into his third career: first a scientist and academic, then a business consultant/entrepreneur and now a scholar-at-large (thinker, writer, speaker, actor). His acting life includes stage, film, and television work, especially in his persona as the humorist, Old Jack: the Aussie Gleeman (purveyor of tall tales, short stories and pithy poetry). Look out for him coming soon to a site near you. As a thinker/writer, his recent publications, include a major travel memoir and two collections of poetry, several short stories and essays and, more recently still, an ongoing series of blogs devoted to issues of current national and international importance, Look Alive is his first collection of short stories, some very short, some not quite so short, some stand-alone, some indicating the beginnings of much, larger works. 'Look alive' is his life mantra as he matures.
