Evelyn and I are grateful for many things in our lives. Personally, there are four things for which I am most grateful. First, I am grateful that I live in San Diego, which, like many other cities in the United States, is a wonderful place to live. Second, I am grateful that I live in this country, where we have the opportunities, freedom, and stability that many people in other countries do not have. Third, I am grateful for the career I have had, which has been not just successful, but also a lot of fun. And finally, I am grateful for good health.

Because of these and other blessings, Evelyn and I believe it is important to share our good fortune with others, and we are pleased to join the Giving Pledge.
