About Me

HM
2022 almost le. Summary: 1964-1966 -- Urbana, Illinois. 1966-1982 -- western NY; football QB, baseball center fielder, 6th man on the basketball team (OK, I am not real proud of that). 1986-1989 --law school watching the greatest college basketball program of all-time (OK, so I am biased). Present -- MN (couldn't resist the area) Loves and Weaknesses -- hoops, politics, general trashy pop culture. Aspirations -- to some day match up with my driver's license weight; to have someone some day say to me, "You don't look that old." Status -- wife, 3 kids born 1994, 95 and 98, 57 years old now in the rearview mirror, a big gut every day in the bathroom mirror, wide bodied, and, if I must say so myself, super smart. Enjoy my Blog.......or just get the hell out.
