Miami, Florida

I have had an interesting life. I should write a book, but there's too much to state here in this summary. Let's just say that I'm a product of my life experiences. I tried to take with me something to learn from every event, no matter how large or small, bad or good, to try to become a better person. I will do this until my end. I have a few selected strong opinions on things for which there is no compromise. Everything else is open. I thank everyone who has entered into my life, especially my two sons, close relatives, close friends including my ex-wife. I am a fiercely loyal American, who believes in G-d as our creator. My heritage is Jewish, but I am more spiritual than religious. I am very proud to be a Jew and all that goes along with that, good and bad. If you want to know about me, you can look at my greatest heroes: Sandy Koufax, John Kennedy, Nelson Mandela, Golda Meir, Winston Churchill, Ronald Reagan, Denzel Washington, Joe Lieberman, Rev. Martin Luther King, George Washington, Abe Lincoln, Roy Campanella, Milton Friedman, Ayn Rand, Kurt Vonnegut, Jackie Robinson, Jeb Bush, among others. Other loves: Among many other things, most notably The LA or Brooklyn Dodgers, the Green Bay Packers, Hershey Bars, My-T-Fine Chocolate Pudding, a thick steak at the Palm, really good pasta w bolongnese the games of MLB Baseball, NFL football, Linguini Carbonara, Kosher Pastrami on Rye, Brisket on Rye, mild sweet Italian Sausages, Rafael Nadal, Donald Driver, Aaron Rodgers, Roger Federer, kosher hot dogs, Pink Floyd, House Music, Tony Bennett, Sting, U2, Peter Gabriel, Nora Jones, Earth Wind and Fire, Sam and Dave, Sam Cook, Al Jolsen, Tom Wolfe, Tom Clancy, Joe Scarborough, Aretha Franklin, Milly Vanilly (just kidding to see if you're reading this), Bob Dylan, Antonio Jobim, Brazil and Brazilians in general, Meditation, Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream, and last but certainly not least Photography and the great game of Tennis.... Dislikes: Arrogance, meanness, and self-centered (narcissistic) people who lack basic common sense and fail to respect others..... More to follow soon. Over and out.....
