After 69 short years I must confess that I'm still curious, eager and excited about discovering each new day. Still love people, travel, conversation, food, all things competive, dreaming impossible dreams, laughing and life itself as much as I ever have. Should I disappear from my life without notice, here's an uncharacteristically concise epitaph: "Boston Lad played for keeps".
