ABOUT ME

I have traveled to almost all of the continental US, along with Hawaii and Guam. I have been to London, Puerto Rico, Mexico, and several Caribbean Islands. Looking forward to more traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

"Taste the moment". Take a "pearl of wisdom" from every encounter you have with people, places and events.

Music, Movies, and Books

"I'm American, entertain me" (ha ha) :) Practically all movies, pretty much middle of the road music plus some blues and classical thrown in, books that teach me something.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

That is a matter of perspective, and given the various backgrounds of the readership, I would have to regale you with stories over a beverage of choice until you hear one of my stories that you find "amazing" to you.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have very varied social and professional experiences. I can be very quiet and serious, or outgoing and conversational, it pretty depends on the context. I know investing, business practices, chess, some computers, hard work and tons of useless trivia (which is fun to talk about around a campfire with a favorite beverage).
