I'm a professor of microbiology - I received my degrees from Rutgers amd UMDNJ. I'm a "rookie" when it comes to politics, but I'm learning fast. Hobbies : photography & cooking ( the rule in our house is - if I cook my husband cleans up & vice versa....I do a lot of cooking ! ). Biking & swimming help me from spinning into total meltdown when I see the Snake or the Torch or their ilk on the screen....and please don't even mention the Clintonistas!
