Lives and breathes the music of the 60s, 70s and 80s. Also, loves most things with a motor especially airplanes and motorcycles.

“Morning is no time to be hitting people over the head with heavy stuff. Just basic News Weather Sports, some upbeat tunes and laugh or two... Save the heavy thinking for later!”
