1940 — Harv’s I-SELF story starts here ======== Junior, as shown in pic, he is already an in-mind FOCUSED OBSERVER thanks to being ‘alone’ in the big-city growth POLITICAL ATMOSPHERE named “sewer socialism” (circa 1850-1950 Milwaukee WI). The pic portrays central Wisconsin ‘vacation’ for Senior (he NEVER went back to farm nor marriage) — mother Connie is shown with or without sister Gloria who lived one day as a ‘blue baby’ — urbanite tavern-owner-son, Senior (Rh+), shown not yet into the full stupor as a functioning alcoholic (he lived to 78y through six dry-up cures until drink made him really sick due to an exhausted liver). Connie [the “sewer socialist” not politically active] lived into her 102nd year at her retirement home — the ‘not-good-enough’ son driving cross country to visit at least yearly — until maybe 2005 when he was departing in the retirement home hallway she announced, “Harvey, I don’t think we should see each other again.” Harv, without hesitation responded, “Ma, I agree,” walking off — we never spoke again, or corresponded. Harv was the shotgun pregnancy not aborted. We three were the culmination of generations of what Harv labels as NO-TALK❗️Grand daughter Susan was afforded some Connie TALK and memorabilia before Connie’s death. The years tumbled on, with Harv’s I-SELF subconsciously driven by his parochial education and his sewer-socialist tradition. He was a latch key kid — the best mother Connie could do in her life-circumstance. Harv was left to his own devices in getting on in his ME-SELF life, yet they could be loosely described as a family of two. In 1961 Harv splintered off into marriage with Elaine. Connie alone coped with retirement focused on a life-end retirement home. Harv looked to his future as a SEWER SOCIALIST — but did not know it then ❗️ Awareness came via life-long study in October 2025.

2002 — Mother Connie and son Harv danced their lives together under the auspices of life-long NO-TALK parochialism, to whom she relegated Junior’s education and a life style basis. NOTE WELL — NO MALES SURVIVE FOR THE ABOVE OLD-AGE PARTYING❗️ From youth on Harv UNBELIEVED MANY TEACHINGS and TRADITIONS.

2026 lifetime view of Harv — YEAR 88 still a YOUTHFUL SPIRIT 😏 1960-1997 chased life partner ideation 💒 1986-1991 college educator 🏫 year 52 retired but didn’t know it 🧐 1999-2018 chased family 🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒 year 86 SELF expression and publish 🤪 year 87 established RETIREMENT Tx 😉 year 88 📖 🚆🧑‍🦼‍➡️🚶 On 26oct2025 💡 — he sees himself [at the nano-blog level (NB)] an ELDER CONSULTANT (EC) with one student, ie, himself … … … He is a philosopher of individual lives — his own equal in quality to all functional others — his challenge is to express that ideation to a sliver of a ‘we’whole-hour to anybody interested [currently counted with just the index finger and by too many with just the ring finger] — He is ‘EC’ only IF HE HAS ANY FUNCTIONAL LIFETIME REMAINING — he works at maximizing his longevity via cooperation with health-care-industry and minimizing other distractions, inclusive of car-living — he is reclusive as a STUDENT-IN-STUDY but not a recluse.

to Milwaukee

1937 ? — Connie bolted from Marshfield live-in domestic work (indentured since grade five), to Milwaukee to mother’s-side south-Milwaukee relatives and perhaps domestic work for an east-side Milwaukee dentist.

Armand

1937? 1938? 1939? 1940? — Armand Otto south-Milwaukee-tavern-owner hung himself (cancer?).

1941 - THIS KID, today, still works his lifetime as a JOB! “Huh ?“ 🙄 ? RETIRED ? Contrarily, HarvOtto.com exists as a work of SELF study evidential narration challenge. Likely, it is a psychiatric COMPLEXITY CHALLENGE to understand SELF (effectualness navigation required). SELF IDEATION begins in the brain, develops in mind, via tasks chosen by a faceted self, 😉 ie, I-self, Me-self, We-self. 🤪 BE HAPPY with your own brain-mind-self as a JOB-mess 🤪. (Background pic represents Harv’s inherent tradition of being-aside, ie, ALONE.) His SELF study began in the 1970s as THEORY W.

2025 — looking ‘into’ his ‘magic-window’ iPad Pro with Magic Keyboard connected to “in-car home” internet, Harv jokingly laughs, (when he can get his keys LIT all-the-time🤥) — Harv laughs at his EXTERIOR SELF while at his daily-picnic-in-the-county-park [he is now TRESPASSED there 😕] — HARV is forever curious of his INNER SELF related to world-wariness via his curated “FREE” CHOICES. Local-yokel modernity-reality — if Harv does not behave he takes responsibility for his own chosen life-way — continually adjusting as he has perceived being trespassed from many places by many individuals — Harv respects them all, although he moves on his life-time path-way.

self key words

Before Harv’s INNER SELF study seriously took over his whole-hour lifetime interest. Harv had his “chasing-family’ lifetime-phase — well worth the time spent, but that chase was not the crux for KNOWING HIS SELF (his two preliminary SELF-keyword's are ALONE and TWEAK — perhaps MINIMALISM is another). A fairly stable book title has snuck out — NOT to be available soon in book stores near you.
