What countries do you want to visit?
Australia is high on my bucket list. Antarctica would be great and Iceland too. Somewhere warm like French Polynesia. A few I would love to see. There are certainly many more.

How do you want to retire?
Enough money to travel and plenty of days spent by the beach. Perfect retirement.
What is your favorite season of year? Why?
Love the warm days of spring and the changing of the leaves in fall. Plus in N.C. the fall is still warm but not so hot you can’t enjoy being outside. Summer is third but by August I am ready for the heat to subside. And Winter is a distant fourth. Just don’t like cold weather.
Describe your dream chocolate bar.
White or Milk Chocolate and preferably not mixed with anything.
Do you remember your favorite book from childhood?
The Hardy Boys Mystery Series was one of my early favorites to read once I started reading as a kid.
Childhood memories
A Hardy Boys Mystery
Fuels my love of books
Describe one simple thing you do that brings joy to your life.
I write and create content for YouTube and my Podcast. That helps to give me not only joy but an outlet that keeps me focused on a goal. Nice to have when the days are tough.
How do you feel about cold weather?
I think this Haiku answers this question.
Tropical beach bar
Open to the warm sea breeze
Nestled in the palms
I do not like the cold. Prefer warm days and sand under my feet. Can I tolerate it? Yes, but only if I have to. I do enjoy a nice snowfall but it’s the only part of winter I really enjoy.
Have you ever broken a bone?
Yep.
Twice.
Broke a finger and my left wrist back when I was a kid. Had a cast on my arm each time.
Abundant white clouds
Choking out the warm may sun
Chance of rain looming
What’s the oldest things you’re wearing today?
Jimmy Buffett concert shirt from 1995. Held up great through the years.
Are you a leader or a follower?
Kind of both but most days I have to be a leader because I am a stay-at-home dad and I run the day to day routine.
Put this together for my YouTube page Disembodied Screams last night.
Plus there are two new episodes available on that channel – 5th edition of Skulls and Coffee and Horror Haiku 2

Waiting on the day end bell
Years pass so quickly

Digging back in the archives for this one.
The Honeysuckle Poem
When I walk,
I love to smell,
Honeysuckle.
I love to see,
it hanging,
from the vines.
I love to see,
it blooming white.
I love to taste,
its nectar,
growing wild.
Yes,
I love the Spring,
the warm weather,
and
Honeysuckle.
What was the last live performance you saw?
The band Tesla just before the Pandemic hit – about a month before. They are an Eighties band I grew up with. You probably know this song.
Cicadas singing
Ringing out among the trees
Waiting on sunshine

What’s a job you would like to do for just one day?
A fisherman on that Deadliest Catch show because that’s about how long I would last – a day. But I would love to try it.
