Height:  5' 7 Weight:  165 lbs. Alumni Status:  MS Aerospace Engineering 1968
Location:  Maryland Favorite Baseball Team:  What's baseball?
Natural Enemies:  Cult leaders and those who worship them

Athletic Ability: Ortho guy says "minimal". Sports medicine guy is helping reach my goal to retain enough athleticism to hike the Camino once again.

Sartorial Style: My post COVID-19 style could best be described as "slovenly."

Favorite Beverage and Consumption Freq: The difference between a bourbon drinker and a scotch drinker is that the scotch drinker only consumes a very specific brand and product. Bourbon drinkers will drink anything.

I am a proud bourbon drinker.

Political Philosophy: To preserve, protect, and defend the United States Constitution, the rule of law, and the peaceful transition of power every four years is the most important duty of every American. Without those things, none of our other rights and privileges are safe. With them, we have a great nation to pass along to our posterity.

Generations past have paid the price for these things with their "last full measure of devotion." It is beyond sad that we are not even willing to pay a bit more for gasoline today.

I am now a registered Libertarian after a half-century as a proud and occasionally very active Republican to avoid even the smallest sign of acceptance of the MAGA / Q cancer that is destroying the party. As a Ronald Reagan Republican and Conservative, this saddens me more than is easy to described.

Religious Philosophy: Failed Lutheran.

I am not now, nor have I ever been, a Catholic.

Atheist is what fits best. By far.

Musical Favorites: That old time rock & roll
Folk (PP&M, Guthrie, Kingston Trio, etc.)
Some others (Charles, Kristofferson, etc.)

Favorite Quote from an ND Coach: "Excuse me ladies..."

Miscellaneous Data: Soy peregrino en El Camino de Santiago.
