I enjoy many things in life. A good steak, a chocolate doughnut, chocolate candy, chocolate cake, well, just about anything chocolate. I also enjoy a good movie, especially the kind that make me laugh. I enjoy laughing, and making other people laugh. I enjoy nostalgia. I have many happy memories of growing up, and I enjoy looking and thinking about the toys I had, the TV shows I watched, the clothes I wore, and the cars I knew. <br/> What I enjoy the most is cars. If you were to ask me why I like cars so much, I would have to answer, «I don't know.» What I do know is, I don't get the same feeling of excitement when I see a locomotive, or a biplane, or a wooden boat. I appreciate those things, but it's cars, especially antique cars, that I really enjoy. I am intrigued by automotive history, and it is those types of books that fill my library. <br/> My book, and most of my writing for that matter, is about cars, humor, and nostalgia. I have a pretty good memory, especially where money is concerned. I never had a lot of money, so I learned to spend it wisely, getting the most for my dollar. I'm not good at math, but I did know I could get a 16-ounce Royal Crown Cola and Drakes Coffee Cake for 25 cents. <br/> Anyway, I hope my stories release some memories of your youth.
