My father passed away a couple of years ago, but he was very old. He was almost a 100 years old. And, you know, he had a very good life. He came to America and he had a good life.

Leadership is an active, living process. It is rooted in character, forged by experience, and communicated by example.

I have a swagger coach that helps me and teaches me different swaggerific things to do.
