Las Vegas, Nevada

(I saw that on a tee-shirt...) So since you're looking at my biography, it really is all about me. Okay, maybe you aren't going to learn ALL about me, but enough to start, anyway.

I'm living in Las Vegas - entertainment capital of the world. also primo golfing, breath-taking mountains (literally -- I get out of breath when I go hiking), and some man-made wonders, too like Hoover Dam (or is it Boulder Dam? I can never remember), and that great Stratosphere Tower that you see in every movie and TV show made in Las Vegas. I'm not fond of the Stratosphere simply because I don't like heights. I'm always a little nervous when I'm up there, but I've learned the secret of not letting it worry me -- I just don't put my full weight down. (Tip - this also works on airplanes.)

I'm retired from many wonderful and truly exciting jobs, one of which I write about on my blog: http://phyllisdillerandwine.wordpress.com Can you figure out what that job might have been? YES! Personal Secretary and General Dogsbody to Phyllis Diller. I also am fond of wine, as you might have guessed, and am pretty exprienced in that field. I test-drive a LOT of wines! Am happy to share my experiences and my selections with you on my blog. There's more -- lots more. Check out my blog and HEY: (shameless plug alert) Buy my book: "Beyond the Spotlight: On the Road with Phyllis Diller." It's available all over the place: Amazon, Barnes & Noble, from the publisher, WigeonPublishing.com. (Hint: Get the e-book. It's cheaper and the pictures are in color!)
