1. In an era of technology, what old-fashioned way of doing things do you refuse to give up?
Don’t know if it is a refuse to give up issue as much as a return to old-fashioned return but I am tough on watches and have ruined/broken/worn out about three smart watches (Motorola and two Fossils.) Recently I have returned to my analog Casio wristwatch – this thing is basically indestructible.
2. What is a good documentary that is not about serial killers?
I recently watched Grey Gardens (I think it is on Amazon) It is about a mother daughter eccentrics living in a run down mansion in the 70s – they are Bouvier’s and relatives of Jacki O. It is fascinating – you just stare and gape as the camera rolls.
3. What’s a song that makes your ears bleed?
I recently got into a bit of a social media kerfuffle when I declared my distaste for “The Doors.” I need not hear any more Doors music. I heard it all up to my ear holes between years living in dorms in college and the army and doing morning radio in college. I will leave the Doors for others to enjoy.

2. If you could instantly learn any instrument, which one would it be?
So like ten seconds ago you couldn’t then Bam! you are now an expert?
Guitar.
I always wanted to play the tuba but my mom dreaded the entire idea of me practicing. The parents talked me into the saxophone for band. Dad already had one so I think it was practical for cost savvings as much as easier on the ears compared to the tuba.

For me it is dealing with Adult ADHD. Concentrating and focusing is getting more difficult as I age.
4. What old school tech gadget is as helpful now as it was 75 years ago?
The god old always handy reliable Handy Man jack. It jacks up your truck, can be used as a winch or even as an iprovised jaws of life to extract a person from a wrecked vehicle. My dad once propped up a dying tree using his jack. He amazed me with this tool-use acumen.
5. What’s something genuinely beautiful that people ruined?
Mt. Everest. The ugly trash all around the base camps. the amount of dead bodies and human excrement buried in all that snow is truly disgusting and has ruined what should have been preserved as a pristine wilderness.

1. Did somebody ever tell you you would amount to nothing in life? And what did you make of yourself now as an adult?
Reading my old school report cards, due to my dyslexia, my teachers were stunned that I wasn’t just sitting the corner of the classroom as a drooling idiot. My school guidance cousnselors steered me away from any professional carrer goals and encouraged me to get a job in a garage assisting with oil changes (true conversation) i went on to serve in the army, graduated college with and English degree, edited the school newspaper and worked as a small town journalist. Maybe most of those teachers amounted to nothing in their lives.
