Describe the most ambitious DIY project you’ve ever taken on.
Maybe building the futon in one of my former apartments. Or assembling furniture from IKEA. I enjoy working with my hands but I need the instructions to give me a guide. It’s almost like building an adult Lego set.
What advice would you give to your teenage self?
Start working. Start saving. Don’t worry about your peers’ approval just put your hands to something and be productive. Everything else will come. God will take care of you.
What bores you?
When people don’t have an exciting story to tell. They lack enthusiasm in their speech or confidence. Whatever it is, it projects onto me, the listener, and then I tune out.
Let me be clear, I’m not advocating for gossip or anything like that. I enjoy hearing a good story from one’s life. In that story I can glean nuggets of wisdom that I can apply in my own life. We’re all here to learn from each other. If you can’t sell your story, then I become bored.

Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you.
Short answer: I wear a pair of Uggs but they’re for men and they are chukkas, not boots. They are (faux) fur-lined and very comfortable.
Most recently I took a day trip up to Providence, RI. A friend of mine was hosting a conference on blockchain and he asked me to host and moderate on a panel. I wore those all throughout the day.
Never had any issues with them and look very classy. Definitely would recommend.

Michael Jordan, the GOAT of basketball, turned 60 today. To commemorate, below is a link to a vid from the 1992 – 93 season, when he turned 30.
The origin of Saint Valentine’s Day goes back to the 3rd century. At that time, the Roman Empire was being invaded by Goths.
At the same time, the Plague of Cyprian, probably smallpox, broke out killing at its height 5,000 people a day. So many died that the Roman armywas depleted of soldiers.

Write about your dream home.
My dream home consists of two sites. One is in the western United States with a couple of acres, a pond, some forestry, and sprawling country roads.
The other one is an apartment in Manhattan that has. Ice hardwood floors, 2 bedrooms, with floor-to-ceiling windows with modern art on the walls. There’s a cold water aquarium in the midst of the apartment.
