HI, I'm Richie
I'm 55, married father of 2 boys, 23 and 21. My wife Lillian comes from a family of 6. I am an only child. We've been married for 27 years. When I first met my wife I was at work, at Logan Airport in Boston. I was driving a catering truck for a friend, making my rounds, when she and our mutual friend came to visit me. To be honest, I was interested in the friend. I had invited her to come and she brought Lil with her. The main thing I remember about that night was when they left, Lil gave me a little peck on the cheek, I didn't think anything of it.
A few weeks later, I invited the friend to a rooftop party in Boston. Once again she brought Lil with her. I was a little upset, wanting to be with the friend, so I was the creep and basically ignored them most of the night. Now we fast forward a little. Three months later, I get a new job, where our mutual friend worked. We started hanging out a lot, but I could tell it was going nowhere.
One night she called me and said, let's go over Lil's house. So she came and picked me up.
When we got there I was impressed. Lil had 2 roommates and they rented the second floor of a beautiful craftsman style house in Brookline, MA. It had all the built-ins and some great woodwork and a fireplace. We sat in front of the fireplace, having a few drinks, talking.
A few hours later, our friend excused herself as she said, I think we should go. So I started getting my things together as she left the room when Lil leaned over and said, you don't have to go if you don't want to. I was surprised and as I said I didn't have my car with me, Lil told me she would drive me home. When out friend came back, she said ok Rich, let's go. I told her I was staying, I'll never forget the shocked look on her face. :)
Well, to make this already long story shorter, Lil drove me home the next day. I packed my clothes and drove back to Lil's and we've been together ever since that night. We got married 5 months later. I am so lucky, I was in the right place, at the right time and met the perfect person for me.
From that day on I've learned to roll with the punches because you never know where life is going to lead you.

Video Marketing
How would you feel if you learned that there was a free way that you could promote your business? Unfortunately, many business owners believe that there is no such thing. There are many who would automatically assume that it was a wasted effort.

Web Hosting - 101 (Part 2)
If you’re new to the world of web design and maintenance, it’s important to know what you’re looking for when you choose a web hosting plan. Without this knowledge, you can end up with a site that crashes, slows down, is not secure, or simply does not provide you with the memory and speed you need to maintain a professional website.
No matter what you choose for a web hosting provider, the amount of downtime vs. uptime is extremely important. Basically, you want to find a hosting service that h… Continue

Last week I was knocked down with the Mexican flu, but I'm getting better now. Only the coughing remains a problem.
I'm glad everything is going well at your place.
Since midth October this year I'm divorced, but I moved with my daughter of 14 midth February already. My son of 17 wanted to stay with his father, but we are in touch with each other regularly. I stopped working about 17 years ago and now I'm trying to find my way on the net.
I'm not a professional writer. I like to do it, but I'm not very patient.
Thanks for your advice according to building a website. I had put it in my mind I wanted to do it all by myself by learning HTML. I still want to do it that way, but now I have an incredible lack of time. However, I intend to visit your links.
Hope your wife succeeds in learning about the racing. Does she has feeling for it? I guess she has.
All the best for you!
Wilma

- So today was photo day for me. My son finally felt the time was right to bring home my camera. I only waited 2 weeks. He's 21 and such a smart kid, so smart in fact, he already knows everything there is to know. He knows stuff that hasn't been thought of yet. :-)
So today I wake up with something in my eye. It's still there. Then I shower and shave. I nicked myself 3 times. Then I'm walking by my desk and stub my toe. Fun picture day, bloodshot eye, nicks on my face and a throbbing toe. Such Fun!
