Richard Kuklinski was born on April 11, 1935 in Jersey City, New Jersey. He was raised in an abusive environment. His father would beat him for no reason at all and all he ever knew was hate because that is all he’s ever known.

Stanley went so far one night that he killed Richard’s younger brother due to hitting him in the head. His father then abandoned the family when Richard was 16. I believe his upbringing is a large contributing factor of him becoming a serial killer.

I think the person who I always wanted to share with a small intellectual conversation is Peter Kreeft. Since I am so passionate towards philosophy and especially the Christian philosophy, I would say that he is my favorite writer and thinker. I always wanted to question him in some of his theories that I do not agree with, and get the chance to debate with one of the greatest philosophers in the twentieth century. Also, if I had the chance I would ask him to mentor me personally or even through his biblical study groups a so that I get higher chances to reach all my dreams and goals in this outstanding career. Finally, encountering with Kreeft, even for very short time, will strengthen my debating and thinking skills a lot.

He flew just 13 miles shy of 25,000 miles during his flight, which lasted about 76 hours. Fossett will now have to hand this record off to a Swiss pilot by the name of Andre Borschberg
