Family: 17-year-old daughter Emily; 14-year-old son Aidan
Hobbies: Golfing (it’s not just a sport…it’s a way of life!), playing pool, darts, singing in my church choir, reading, and playing the organ (my childhood dream was to play the one at the Organ Grinder on 82nd or the one at Oaks Park Roller Rink…never did)
Favorite Foods: Filet Mignon, Pizza, Hazelnut Crusted Halibut, and Turkey with all the trimmings, and ice cream (maybe these explain my cholesterol issues)

Something I love that I lost: My dad, in 2005. He became a father at 57 and lived to 94. He swore he’d be the only guy collecting social security with a kid in kindergarten.
Things people would be surprised to know about me: I’m scared to death of getting a speeding ticket…don’t know why, just am…have never even had a parking ticket. I’m usually very quiet at home and at family gatherings. Also have a thing for numbers…I easily remember phone numbers, family and friends birthdays/anniversaries, and license plates of every car my parents or I have ever had.
Physical fitness routine: Who has time? I jump to conclusions and bend over backwards for people on a daily basis!

Livability.com Names Portland, OR One of the Top 10 Cities for Book Lovers
Franklin, Tenn. — Livability.com, a website offering in-depth information about America's best places to live has released a list of The Top 10 Cities for Book Lovers. The Livability.com editors researched more than 500 livable communities to find the top cities with thriving independent bookstores and a vibrant literary scene.
"Cities with successful independent bookstores tend to have an entrepreneurial spirit that carries over into other industries," says Livability.com spokesperson John Hood. "You'll also find that most of these cities are home to colleges and universities or major cultural institutions – adding to their livability factor."
The city that inspired the likes of Jean M. Auel and Beverly Cleary is no stranger to the independent bookstore (and this city happens to offer 139 of them). The crown jewel in Portland's literary scene is the expansive Powell's City of Books. Five floors, thousands of titles and ridiculous amounts of Yelp love will entice any book fanatic to these pearly gates of book paradise. Read more.
