BUCKET LIST: Antarctica, Travel all Central America countries (back country) alone; Design my own home. Drink an entirely too expensive bottle of Bordeaux. Drive a formula 1 car. Spend a day with an ex-President (USA) Kayak down a wilderness river for 2 weeks. Help students get college education.

GUILTY PLEASURE: Don’t answer the phone all day. Don’t shave for a week (or a month?)

*MY TWO CENTS: I love the fact that he supports so many organizations especially in the field of Research & Education. In America’s Finest City, San Diego, there is always a fight over funding for libraries or a new Ball Park. That would seem like a no brainer to me, libraries. Education, Education, Education!
