CURRENT MISSION

To live a meaningful, full life.

ABOUT ME

A bit quiet, yet humorous, honest, clean, smart. I enjoy good food and drink, all kinds of music, bicycles, motorcycles, boats, old houses, and travel. My wife is a chemistry professor, and we have a smart, talented teenage daughter who loves her cat. Yes, we also have a cat, for those who are sensitive to animals. She's well-behaved too.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live. Agnostic, but definitely spiritual.
