If you were adrift on the ocean, what two people would you like to have with you?

Who would I like to have with me when I was adrift on an ocean? I'd need someone who knows what they're doing on the ocean. Jamie Weeden -- he's sailed around the world, and you [Sherr's friend, Dan].

What song always makes you turn it up and sing when it comes on the radio?

"What's Love Got To Do With It." That's my daughter's and I. We would always turn that up. Tina Turner.

What smell always reminds you of home?

The smell of gum leaves.

How would you rate your ability to handle your money?

Reasonably. I'm not a great saver. I'm not a great spend-thriftier either. We like to enjoy life.
