Clothing (fabrics, garment construction) and how to sell it with words. (That's what I do for a living.)

Acting - having done it since I was 9.

Cooking and baking - including the chemistry of baking and ice cream making.

In general, I know a lot about a few things and a little about a lot of things.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

eek You would've really enjoyed The Howard Stern Show for the past couple years.

And they are always playing chess on Big Brother (which, itself, is akin to chess)!

I used to listen to Howard before he switched to satellite radio.

I was too cheap to follow him. lol

What about you, Ace? What are your areas of expertise?

Oh, you must hear him on satellite! It's The Greatest Thing in the World!

Me? Hmm... I guess, to some degree or other (in no particular order)...

  • pop culture
  • music
  • writing
  • fitness
  • chow chows
  • happiness

Very nice!

How does one become an expert in happiness? I dabble in happiness, but during the times when I need it, it evades me. Maybe if I started listening to Howard again, it would help!

Well, Howard would certainly add a lot of laughs to your life (which would add to your happiness)!

How does one become an expert in happiness? A lot of trial and error, a lot of reading on the subject and a lot of therapy with a very good doctor!

* modern & contemporary art history

* leading museum tours on modern & contemporary art, including synthesizing complex art historical concepts so that they can be easily understood by audiences of all educational levels (8 years)

* American Red Cross swim instruction - I was a lifeguard and water safety instructor for 8 years and taugh swimming lessons to all ages. Although my certification has lapsed I still remember the strokes and how to teach them.

* my non-Prince fan friends would probably consider me an expert on him. lol

* I also know a lot of random facts and trivia due to the fact that I one day aspire to be a contestant on Jeopardy!.

The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

Other than their confusing ass ovulation schedule and the ability to sense Prince's gayness, I'm an expert on them.
