What About My Family?

My mother and father have assumed room temperature. My daughter and her son own vacation rentals in Maui; and she's a singer, a composer, a fanatic surfer and a left-wing kumbaya environmental wacko. My son, who is somewhat to the right of Atila the Hun, owns a telecommunication consulting business, has two children and is presently going through a divorce that some affectionately labeled as “the male mid-life crisis.” My first wife, whom I affectionately refer to as “the barracuda” (and who, while we were still married, affectionately introduced me to others as her “first husband”) get along just fine. Both of us remarried to others who were divorced from others who remarried others who remarried others and the beat goes on. My current main squeeze is Ruthmary. Ru for short.

What Else Keeps Me Occupied?

Eating, sleeping, politics, peeing and CSPAN.
