Never, ever, under any circumstances, go along with a plan that ends with, "...and then run like hell".
I quit smoking cigarettes despite the risk of quitters never winning. So far, so good.
I am NOT a morning person.
I'm very mechanically inclined. I can fix almost anything...except you.
Music: listening to music, seeing live bands, playing music - I sing and play guitar in The DragStrippers (there are MP3's if you wanna hear what we sound like).
I'm teaching myself how to play piano and saxaphone.
Some other interests include: art, culture, reading and writing but not arithmetic, good conversation, coffee, cooking/grilling, boating, helping people, anything that allows me to express my creativity, finding cool and obscure places and things, classic cars, boating, photography, billiards, bowling, renovating my houses, camping, movies, people watching, traveling, good food, good beer, good company, those perfect simple moments when you realize how great things are.
