Hey, Dude, pull over, this is it!
This is what?
What we've been looking for since 1960! Look at the sign, man! Coolville!
Go back to sleep!

Great, Slyvia. A lot of us old timers are still looking for something out of the 1960's. I found mine in 'Light my fire' sung by Jim Morrison.

Back to the 40's go I, when everything was "neat-or-neat-o" I'm still looking for "Neatsville".

Your 60's "cool" is great, and these ARE fun! Thank you,

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
