Teddy sounds like Nortech's Chris Varley. ~Jim
Shalom John,
Teddy is one of my personal heroes. Did you ever read Exuberance by Kay Redfield Jamison? She uses Roosevelt as her primary exampnle of an exuberant personality. Great read.
B'shalom,
Jeff
Thanks for the recommendation, Jeff. I'll be sure to check out that book. And you're right--TR is endlessly fascinating as both a man and a president, second only to Lincoln in that regard. And I think a pretty close second. George W. Bush probably comes in a close third, no? But he's of course interesting in an entirely different way than these great men...
