Veteran's Day - Memorial Day - Remembrance Day - Holocaust Remembrance



That's what it takes to be a hero, a little gem of innocence inside you that makes you want to believe that there still exists a right and wrong, that decency will somehow triumph in the end.
Lise Hand

Holocaust Remembrance


May we never forget!
A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself.
Joseph Campbell

Remembrance Day



Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear.
Mark Twain

The secret of Happiness is Freedom, and the secret of Freedom, Courage.
Thucydides

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.
