Bio: When life heads off in an unplanned direction, you can either laugh or cry. Crying uses tissues, which cost money. If you want to be rich, laugh!

I'm retired, three great kids, one grandson. I believe life is too short, so we must enjoy it to the max, and help others as much as we can.
Hobbies: Riding my Harleys, reading, Formula 1, stained glass, winemaking, math puzzles...
