Introduction	This will be a real challenge to fill out! I see myself as a rather complex person who enjoys the simple things in life and who also enjoys a simple life. I like to think that I have a low threshold for satisfaction (meaning, it does not take too much to make me happy) except in one key area: I am very judicious and choosy about the women who I spend my quality time with and I readily admit that, rightly or wrongly, I possess the 'flaw' of allowing only attractive, intelligent women to get close to me. Although my preferred way of being is humorous, I can be serious with the best of them. Conversely, although people who know me well know that I am bright and somewhat intelligent, I'd much rather be silly! As I told my family doctor a few years ago, "When I look back on my life, I see that I've had a charmed life, with a few stresses." Also, I can tell a lot about a person from what newspapers and magazines they subscribe to. In my case: The Wall Street Journal, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, NEWSWEEK, U.S. News & World Report, ASTRONOMY, Sky & Telescope, The Planetary Report. Today, I am adding a blog of my favorite poem, 'Desiderata', which I believe was inspired.
