About me

Gender Male
Industry Education
Location Chicago, Illinois, United States
Introduction This is easy...from my humble beginnings as the child of a mill worker and midwife* in Bay City, Michigan to my rise to infamy in Chicago, Illinois...I don't take anything too seriously, and find myself surrounded on a daily basis by the mundane and the unbelievable. I believe that Thomas Edison had it right...I have not failed, I've just found 1000 ways that don't work. Oh...and if you subsitute fireman for millworker and shoe retailer for midwife...I haven't lied at all in this part of the profile. And...if you notice below, I'm one of those nerds who can find joy in both Star Wars AND Star Trek.
Interests Michigan State University, College Sports, Piano Music, The mating habits of the Malaysian Love Beetle, and my dog
Favorite Movies Star Wars, Star Trek, Anchorman, Minority Report, Hoosiers, Miracle
Favorite Music Billy Joel, Neil Diamond, O.A.R., Barry Manilow, John Mellencamp, Bon Jovi
Favorite Books The Tipping Point, The Color Purple, Sex Drugs and Cocoa Puffs, Blink, A Million Little Pieces, Brainwashed

That can't really be a fish you're standing on, can it?

It's not a fish...it's a dolphin I clubbed over the objections of some greenpeacers.
