About Me

My photo
Older and Wiser
Your host is an early 70s untypical member of the American middle-class. I am a conservative Republican who took public transportation and commuted by electric car. I don't like Donald Trump. I treasure the environment and even belonged to the Sierra Club for awhile. I am a proud citizen-soldier, very happily married 46 years and a father of four wonderful children and the grandfather of two. I hike, shoot, and off-road whenever I can. My reaction to the world makes me seem grouchy but I'm actually a nice guy.
