About me:

I'm very happily married with two incredible kids living an otherwise uneventful life in Santa Clarita, which is how you remembered it, just worse (and bigger). I love to cook, especially traditional southern barbecue, French, Italian and bread baking. I follow politics and current events obsessively. My politics are center-left, but many of my best friends are Republicans, inexplicably. I'm also a Mac user, and you should be too.
.. .. .. ..

Who I'd like to meet:

Barack Obama, etc. United States Map

    I still don't get Garth. Maybe my facial hair is getting in the way of my intelligence.

    Tripod and Garth? I don't even know what that means. Maybe Education + Entertainment. One might say Edutainment even....
