| Introduction | I am a man who was born in the wrong era. I believe in things that are now considered passe. I believe that respect for oneself and for others is paramount. I believe that women should be treated with the utmost respect and dignity. My interests range from the sacred to the profane. I love to write, to cook, to talk, and to drive very fast. I think there is nothing more poetic than watching a beautiful woman walk down the street. I am a devout Roman Catholic. I am old enough to know (and admit) that my parents have been 95% correct about everything and that my father is truly the smartest man alive. I believe that one must stand up for what one believes, no matter what the cost, because one day one will need to stand before God and give account. |
