Those of you who were born the year I stopped working for pay could have voted for or against Pres. Bush. I have always looked younger than my years, and now I look to be about 65. I am a very experienced person in many ways. I was always cursed with a face that was too pretty for a boy or man. It looks more manish with the many years I have given it.

Interests
I spent my life in study. I have studied how the English Language grew and changed over the last 2000 years. I love photography, writing, music, reading, travel, and my family. I firmly believe, the person who reads travels the world; those who do not read, never leave home. My reason for being here is to interact with those of you who want to read and write and meet people. And I want to comment on the stories you write. You will find me always a gentleman.

Favorite Books
I have a record of more than 5000 books I have read, can't pick a favorite. but I like SF.
