edit data

A writer with an empathetic vision able quickly and effectively to find hooks in events and activities relating to real life without including any of the standard "baloney" factors, a talent not to be underestimated. A broad life of experience operating, founding, and investing in businesses tends to take the chisel to the mold; what results is the excitement of what might be with a full understanding of the cratering when it does not. Learning to survive came from physical endurance from personal tests rather than those found in public parlors. Creativity, the elixir of life, is the reward, health the medal.

“It was a dark and stormy night . . . .” The oft-used sentence found in the opening of novels ended a long and stormy day at Brainerd International Raceway, Minnesota, as favorite son, Morgan Lucas, driving the GEICO / Lucas Oil dragster, won the Lucas Oil NHRA Nationals in a fiery, dramatic finals pairing.

The thrilling and dramatic Top Fuel final made ESPN’s Top Ten Plays of the Day as No. 5.
