Most people think I am an enormous risk taker. And in some areas of my life, I would have to agree my risk tolerance is pretty high. I'm what used to be called an extreme skier. I spend as much of my...
I have an addictive streak and a tendency to procrastinate. But I don't have much trouble knuckling down and imposing structure and discipline on myself when I know that is what's necessary. Some of...

I am very good at math. I enjoy solving difficult problems and I could always crush word problems on tests. Arithmetic, though, I lack the patience to do repetitive tasks. I can do it ok in my head...
I too make my own pizza from scratch. I'll make enough dough for 4 pizzas and put 3 in the freezer for later. I don't like too much sauce or too much cheese, so I prefer to make them myself. They are...
