Larry
Owens.

Favorite Web site: Weather Underground: http://www.wunderground.com/.
Ingredient you must have in your refrigerator: Balsamic vinaigrette (my own mix).
Fondest childhood memory: My mother's nut rolls at Christmas time.
Pet peeve: People throwing cigarette butts out of their car windows—you've got an ashtray, use it.
Bad habit: Eating too many foods loaded with carbohydrates.

my girlfriend.
