Living as well as I can, one day at a time. Have toiled as a Steelworker(1 year)...Real Estate Broker Manager(30 years)... Vice President, Executive, Council of Dietitians of Ontario(6 years). If there is one thing I have learned in life...It is to enjoy the moment because it only comes along once in your life. I was born in the morning...but not this morning, and I currently administer various websites. Tyranny comes in many forms... Political, Religious, Personal... But it is always tyranny... To accept is to be debased... To condone is to be complicit... To ignore is to be the worse of all. In the immortal words of a childhood icon: Live Long and Prosper!
