I am here for Friends

About Me

Proud parent of the best kid in the world, my daughter Sally. My wife, Wendy, is in Medical school making Sally and I very proud. She is a super wife and mother and takes super good care of us even though she is studying all the time (I mean all the time).

My Interests

Coin Collecting, Reading Books, News

I'd like to meet:

FDR

Movies:

Not a single one in the past 32 months. OK, one, I saw Night at the Museum over Christmas.

Television:

Besides news, as little as humanly possible. We don't have cable only an antenna. You don't need TV. Stay away from it.

Books:

Almost anything I can get my hands on. Politics, non-fiction, history, David Mc Cullough, Twain and some guilty pleasures like Stephen King, Koonce and now Coonts.

Heroes:

My dad.

A couple of milestones...

Milestone 1) I finally bought an mp3 player.  I bought it on woot.com.  If you don't know about this site it is great.  They sell one thing each day.  Once it's gone you have to wa...

A Great Book

I recently finished reading The Female Brain (info listed below).  I found the book to be a very interesting and educational read.  I strongly recommend it to all who are or know females.&nb...

Are you doing what you really want to be doing?

I mean are you happy with your life? Although we all try to avoid thinking about the end, it is coming. In my trips to the library with Sally I have been getting books on metaphysical thoughts, orga...

Sally's Fortune
