<DIV><SPAN class=859141617-15012010><FONT face='"Tempus Sans ITC"'>Hi my name is
Ken Youngert and I am a retired High School English teacher and Elementary
Principal. I have never read the Odyssey cover to cover. I did study the Iliad
in high school Latin class- lo those many years ago. I live in Virginia and I
like to read and now that I have the time read leisurely I will relish the
opportunity. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=859141617-15012010><FONT face='"Tempus Sans ITC"'>I live with
my partner, Tom, and two Schnauzers: T.G. Tucker and Scooter who are litter
mates. I am taking piano lessons and hope someday to play somewhat well. We like
to travel and have been all over this country and have made plans to take the
maiden voyage on the new Queen Elizabeth in October, We will go from Southampton
to the Canary Islands and back.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=859141617-15012010><FONT face='"Tempus Sans ITC"'>How did I
learn about this? Well we have a list serve in our neighborhood called Lake Link
and someone wrote about Pat and I thought I might like his music so I went
and looked him up and so here I am in this reading group. Hope that I can
contribute something worthwhile but if I can't I hope to learn
something.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
