Life is simple and we just make it more complicated than it really is. It goes by quicker than we realize. It is rarely easy. We must find the joy in the simple things. We must respect life. We must live in the moments between the moments. I make every effort to squeeze every ounce out of this life I have and I hope to share the joy with another who understands my philosophy.

Religion: So not religious. I believe religion is either the excuse for horrible atrocities or the place where zealots go to build the fires upon which they roast others. My spiritual belief might be described as the Force. I believe that this spark that animates every living thing flows throughout each of us.

Favorite Quotes: You can sleep when you are dead. Live in the moments between the moments.

Favortie Sports: I love going to baseball games, love listening to the games on the radio and generally love baseball. I'm a big follower of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Interests: Geology, cooking, thrifting, exploring the restaurant scene, going to rock concerts, plays, musicals, opera and the symphony. I love to travel around the world, learning new languages and cultures. I'm maybe a little obsessed with Egypt, both ancient and modern.
