deathray

Hm...summarizing a life...Investment banker, sailor, unintentional gourmet cook. Ex US Naval officer, also Foreign Service. Split my time between NYC and Miami Beach. Travel...a lot. Single, no kids. Used to do Improv comedy in lieu of therapy. Prefer a good laugh, but will fight when necessary.

The newest news is that I have received my organ transplants, and am feeling better than ever! After a week in the hospital, I'm out and about, and all the pieces parts are working great!

Quicksilver0602 is the girl I've always dreamed of, when I want to wake up in a cold sweat.

"The structure of world peace cannot be the work of one man, or one party, or one nation. It must be a peace which rests on the cooperative effort of the whole world." - Franklin D. Roosevelt
