My favorite hoagie is turkey, preferably smoked, and provolone cheese with mustard and mayonnaise with a dusting of ground black pepper. I will sometimes add pickled jalapeño peppers or pickled banana peppers.

My paternal grandfather Giuseppe loved sunflowers. Also, I was a reporter, writer, editor, and researcher for a weekly international magazine on the financial and technical aspects of the chemical industry based in New York City from 1992 to 1996. This included agriculture chemicals (fertilizers), petrochemicals (aromatics and aliphatics), pharmaceuticals, flavors, fragrances, plastics, paints, coatings, oils, fats, waxes, surfactants, and more. My first position there was titled "Oils, Fats, and Waxes Editor," so I occasionally wrote about sunflower seed oil used as an industrial lubricant.

Happy Father-in-Law Day to my father-in-law Bob (R.I.P.). He was not only down to earth but also larger than life. Here I am with Bob and my mother-in-law Lorna (R.I.P.) at our wedding reception when I married their daughter Aileen (Debbie) on February 4, 2006. Bob, you are sorely missed and forever in our thoughts and within our hearts. Of course, we also sorely miss Lorna.

Tigers are not native to Africa, so lions and tigers don't hang with each other. Tigers are native to India. Lions and tigers were thrown together to make old jungle movies more exotic.
