Let's Meet Our Good Pal:
lestparker
I am a 56 year old Electrical Engineer. I am a runner who has logged over 30,000 miles in the past 42 years. I play tennis regularly. I enjoy a good argument and like to hear others opinions. I dont engage in name calling and would appreciate the same treatment, although I do enjoy satire and irony. I also love a good pun.
