Multifaceted writer seeks readers for comment and feedback. While he won't turn down a long walk on a beach, he much prefers a more active pursuit.

Loves movies but is known for paraphrasing even the most memorable quotes. Considers himself quite the foodie but only if it is paired with the right wine. Seeks to be a walking contradiction.

I think I mentioned something about a baptism by fire in my last blog entry. Forget fire. This was an inferno. Thankfully, I pick things up on the fly. As I was encouraged by one of the doctoral candidates just last evening, I needed to “fake it ‘til I make it.”

As a dog person, I have to say it comes as no surprise to me to learn that cats could, one day, kill us all. But Dick and Jane probably never saw this one coming.
