This is fun…

1. My greatest athletic success came in my junior year of high school, when my doubles partner Jon and I placed 2nd in district in tennis. My pride prevents me from discussing the regional tournament.
2. I had moderate to severe asthma in elementary school, so bad that I had to sit out some of the runs and other activities, especially in winter. I took allergy shots for years. The older I got, the stronger my lungs became. Now my asthma is very mild, and my limiting factor in athletics is generally my knees, stamina, or talent.
3. Even though it’s environmentally irresponsible, I love a good steak.
4. I prefer listening over talking.
5. I sang in a mostly black gospel choir in my senior year of high school. We performed for the City Council. It was great to see how music and faith can make race a non-issue.
6. I have degrees in writing and business but use neither. The only license I currently use was the easiest and cheapest to obtain.
7. My last professional football game was the 1993 Super Bowl, where the Cowboys dismantled the Bills and Michael Jackson provided an excellent halftime show.
8. I wish drug companies weren’t allowed to advertise prescription drugs.
9. I replenish my t-shirt supply by donating blood, which I did on Sunday.
10. Purell is one of my favorite products. I can’t stand for my hands to be greasy or sticky.
