  • Two men other than my father had dramatic impact on my life. Both of them were PE teachers, one in elementary school and one in high school.

    I was awkward, uncoordinated, and a social outcast. I was always the last picked when teams were picked. My elementary school PE teacher solved this by making me the “captain” and I got to pick the teams.

    My high school PE teacher, who won State championships and coached future NBA all-stars still had time to be my doubles partner when we were playing tennis.

    Those two men were definitely my champions.

    6’6" (247.5 Oreo Cookies for those of you who use that measurement). My wife is 5’1" tall.

    When I was growing up my mom would always say “the tall girls are going to love you!” Every tall girl I ever asked out shot me down in flames.
