WELL, I GUESS THE BEST WAY TO BEGIN MY BLOGGING ENDEAVOR IS BY LETTING YOU KNOW A LITTLE ABOUT ME.

I'M OVER FIFTY, OVER SIX FEET TALL, AND OVER TWOO HUNDRED POUNDS. I HAVE A LOVELY WIFE, ANNA, AND THREE GROWN BOYS.

I DON'T PARTICULARLY CARE FOR POLITICIANS OR HYPOCRACY (REDUNDANT?), I HATE WHEN MY OPPONENT AT THE CARD TABLE SUCKS OUT ON THE RIVER, AND I DO BELIEVE I OWN THE ROAD.

THE GODFATHER (I & II), SNATCH, THE PRINCESS BRIDE, BRINGING UP BABY, AND ALL THREE BOURNE MOVIES CAN BE WATCHED REPEATEDLY.

AND OVER THE COURSE OF TIME, I'LL BE SHARING THOUGHTS AND WEB SITES WITH YOU. I'LL TRY TO REMEMBER TO RATE THE SITES BEFORE I SEND YOU TO THEM. I DON'T WANT YOU TO BE STARTLED BY SOME OF MY DIVERSIONS.
