I'd rather not say....but if I must.

I am male, married and old. Grumpy, sarcastic and sleep deprived.

I love wine and John Coltrane. I have children (whom I also love). I am a classically trained chef and I instruct automobile racing and driving.

Reading is my sanctuary and cooking is my passion. I adore the writing of H.S.Thompson, E.Hemingway and M.F.K.Fisher. I believe there is little better or more satisfying than ending the day with a stiff drink, maybe a cigar and a fine conversation or heated debate.

I am anti-social...but I love people. I relish walking in the in the fall woods with my dog. I believe in the power of music and literature to change peoples lives. I LOATH television. I like to be alone or I can be the life of the party. I am a leader, a teacher and good listener. I try to do my best but I occasionally stumble and need help.

Well. That's enough about me.

If you want to add me to your freind list...tell me something about yourself. I'm all ears.

I dare you to scroll down and read my list of favorite authors/books....dare ya.
