Curious questions Lon but what the hell, Ill play.



To a Super Market...Closest is 4 blocks but the shopping experience is inferior so Im willing to travel several more miles in order to make the excursion acceptable.

Pharmacy/Chemist...6 blocks (drug dealer makes house calls)

Barber Shop...Im still searching for the right chemistry with a barber I can call my own. Will travel almost any distance within the city for those golden scissors.

Bar/Pub...Dont drink but the pub days were phased out near the end for drawn blinds and the phone off the hook.

Golf Course...Dont have a favorite. The beauty is in discovering new ways to frustrate myself with the ultimate goal being to have a complete break down on some unfamiliar course Ill never have to visit again.

Beauty Parlor...N/A

Lake/Pond...Minnesota, theyre everywhere !

Park...1/2 block

Cinema...6 miles

Hospital...12 miles

Fire Station...I dunno



Swimming Pool...1 mile

Ocean...1500 mles

Tennis Courts...N/A
I AM AWESOME MAN

ALOHA!!

MOTTO TO LIVE BY:

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, champagne in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming.

WOO HOO!!, what a ride!!!"
