What event has altered the course
of your life and character?
Secretariat winning the Kentucky Derby.
I always loved horse racing, but Secretariat
was the one that made me know there
was nothing else I wanted to do.
What do you feel most proud of?
Setting goals early on in my life and
being able to achieve them.
How do you spend your free time?
I do a little fishing. That's about it.
If you won the lottery
what would you do?
I have everything I want, so that would
be a tough one. First of all, I don't buy
lottery tickets, so I couldn't win the
lottery. We do have a lot of employees
that have been with us forever, so I think
what I would do with that money is give a
lot of it to them, so they could enjoy their
lives as much as I have and to reward their
loyalty. We try to do that as much as we
can, but I'd love to do more.
What is a skill you'd like
to learn and why?
I would have liked to learn to fly
an airplane, but I'm not allowed
to according to my wife. I even
mentioned it to Mr. Oxley and
he said, 'You better not!'
