4: I have a hard time getting to bed on time, and I am a life long night owl.
5: I am missing the interior lens from my left eye due to childhood accident, but it looks cosmetically perfect, so few people realize this.
6: I was born on Clark Field Air Force base in the Philippines, and I grew up in Vietnam and Africa. When I was 10 years old in 1968 the communists kicked us out of Sudan, and after a bit we came back to the US.
7: I am single (divorced since 1998). I have an 18 year old son and a 22 year old daughter.

  2. I was born and raised in Kansas City.
