My passion is ...

Finding answers to my curiosity

My parents always told me ...

"Always do the right thing, you'll never regret it." I should have listened.

My childhood ambition ...

Win the World Series while pitching a no hitter and batting in the only run. Hey, I was a typical kid.

My favorite memory ...

Then: Welcoming each of my children into this world. Now: Welcoming each grand child into this world.

Why I write ...

To get it out, to have fun with it and hopefully connect with the reader.

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

Reading history and bios; Watching Charlie Rose and Nova, and more junk than I would like to admit; Listening to Smooth Jazz and Light Rock

My first job ...

Caddy for the country club rich

My best moment ...

Has lasted over 40 years, beginning when she said "I do."

My inspiration ...

Everyone I meet and get a chance to know.
