About Robert Hartung

Meet Robert Hartung - KE4JCD
Robert

       
Rebekah Hartung - KF4BEL
Rebekah

    Welcome, my name is Robert Hartung, and I go by the handle of Bookworm Cowboy on Paltalk; age 52 and married. My Wife's name is Rebekah, and we been married since the spring of 1988. We live in Lakeland, Florida USA. I was born in Maple Shade, New Jersey in the fall of the late 1950's. After graduation, I first lived in an efficiency apartment atop the Palace Confectionery in Riverside, NJ until the spring of 1980, when I moved to Lakeland, Florida USA.

  

    Professionally, I owned a Small Engine Repair Business in Riverside, NJ and then moved it to Lakeland, Florida. I was in a number of other professions; including a Professional Magician and Clown, Rabbit Breeder, Security, and Web Designer.

             

   Due to the lack of morality among the majority of people, even in Christian circles, I believed I wouldn't find a devout Christian woman to tie the knot. However, in the fall of 1987, I met Rebekah working at a local restaurant, and in the spring of 1988; we became man and wife, and we've been living a happy God Fearing life for 24 years. We were married at Shepherd Road Baptist Church, and the rest is history.

            

   Currently, I Retired at age 50 due to a health issue and stay home enjoying life. I've become an extremely private person in recent years and socialize with a very select group of successful people. I love to surf the Internet, Shop Online, and voice chat with my friends worldwide on Paltalk, Skype, or ooVoo. I love Facebook, and more. I enjoy watching my favorite classic television shows or Movies on Satellite, DVD/Bul-ray, or Netflix with a Roku.

           

   My Wife Rebekah is employed by Publix Supermarket, and works in the Fresh Pack Warehouse. We have no children. We own 3 dogs named Buddy, Oscar, and Rosie, and 6 cats named Ms. Kitty, Stinky, Purr Kitty, Melissa, and so on.

The Robert's Hobby's

  • My Interests and Hobby's include,

    • Computers:
      The first computer I owned was a Commodore PET, then a Commodore Vic-20. The very first IBM Compatible I owned was a DTK 286, 12MHZ with DOS 3.1 and no Windows. I used it to run The Magic BBS for many years. Currently, I own a Lenovo with a Intel Centrino dual core laptop with Windows XP Professional, and Acer Aspire ONE with Ubuntu Linux. I own two desktops, the first is a ASUS home built with Linux Red Hat desktop and the other is a ASUS home built with SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11.

    • Love calling BBS's:
      First via landlines, and now via telnet. Formally, I was the Sysop of The Magic BBS, a Local Landline BBS I operated for many years before Cyberspace.

    • CB Radio and Amateur Radio:
      My Handle on the
      CB Radio was the Bookworm - The weird world of wonder, who is wondering about this weird world we live in. I quit the CB Radio in 1994; I said "Get a Ham License and Get a Real Radio" when the popular CB Radio hobby was invaded by jammer's due to the absence of FCC enforcement. Today, Smart Phones and the Internet are a far more effective mode of Wireless Communications then CB, and Amateur Radio; So I quit both, and moved on to a voice chat program called Paltalk in 2010. Paltalk, the number one alternative to CB and Amateur Radio worldwide!
           

  • My other Interests include.,

    • We both attend a local Christian Home Church in the Lakeland area.

    • Walking - Time and weather permitting

    • Biking - Due to health issues, I had to quit. Biking - Again, Time permitting

    • Magic - I did both stage and close-up at Children's Birthday Parties, local Holiday events and other venues, and Cruise ships. However, I retired and moved on to other interests.

    • Reading the Bible, or a good book.

    • Facebook

    • Chatting on Paltalk, or ChristianChat.com.

    • Fitness (Gold's Gym North Lakeland) & Martial Arts

    • CB Radio (Bookworm) KBMV-3443; then in 1994 Amateur Radio call KE4JCD, and Rebekah's call KF4BEL.

    • Electronics - Building Kits and other projects.     Bob at Gold Gym North Lakeland

  • Our pet's include,

    • 3 Dogs - Buddy, Oscar (Fox Terrier Mix) , and Rosie (Tea Cup Chihuahua)

    • 6 Cats - Ms. Kitty, Stinky, Purr Kitty, Melissa        Rosie

  • Our websites include,

    • This one - Robert Hartung.com, my personal web site.

    • ke4jcd.com was my Amateur Radio website. Where I covered the topics of Amateur and CB Radio, GMRS and FRS radios, scanner and shortwave listening. I closed ke4jcd.com due to several factors; One, the popularity of the Internet, the wants popular Amateur Radio hobby has lost its appeal. Two, due to antenna restrictions and the neighbors not willing to look at your antenna farm. Three, the equipment and radios are so expensive, when you can do so much more on a small smart phone and/or the Internet.
      Like in my case, I discovered Paltalk Messenger. You can communicate worldwide with thousands of people, on hundreds of topics, in fully moderated voice chat rooms. Including adult content without a license, costly radio equipment and antennas cluttering up your yard that annoys your neighbors.

    • Robert Hartung's Very First Site - This was my very first site on the internet November 27, 1997. I used a UNIX Shell Account to access the internet in those day and it was slow.

    • Hartung Media Group, where we provide elucidating content FREE to the general public.

  • Other Items include,

    • I and the wife are Faith Based Conservatives. We vote based on Conservative Biblical Values of Fiscal Responsibility, Limited Government, More Freedom, and Lower Taxation.

    • We both attend a Christian Home Church in the Lakeland area. My father was a devout Roman Catholic. So I was raised a Roman Catholic until I became an adult; When I begun a serious study of the Bible. I determined the Roman Catholic Church was completely in error, and not following the apostles teachings.  So I began searching, and I first joined the Church of Christ, then moved on to the Baptist faith; until I discovered the Home Church Movement.

  • My Family Christian Views are;

  1. The one true God who lives eternally in three persons—the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

  2. The universal sinfulness and guilt of fallen man, making him subject to God's wrath and condemnation.

  3. The divine inspiration and supreme authority of the Old and New Testament Scriptures, which are the written Word of God—fully trustworthy for faith and conduct.

  4. The atoning sacrifice of Christ on the cross: dying in our place, paying the price of sin and defeating evil, so reconciling us with God.

  5. The bodily resurrection of Christ, the first fruits of our resurrection; his ascension to the Father, and his reign and mediation as the only Savior of the world.

  6. The justification of the sinner solely by the grace of God through a true living faith in Christ crucified and risen from the dead.

  7. The ministry of God the indwelling Holy Spirit, who leads us to repentance, unites us with Christ through new birth, empowers our discipleship and enables our witness.

  8. The Church, the body of Christ both local and universal, the priesthood of all believers—given life by the indwelling Spirit and endowed with the indwelling Spirit's gifts to worship God and proclaim the gospel, promoting justice and love.

  9. The personal and visible return of Jesus Christ to fulfill the purposes of God, who will raise all people to judgment, bring eternal life to the redeemed and eternal condemnation to the lost, and establish a new heaven and new earth.
