Introduction | I'm an Abraham Lincoln impersonator who very much enjoys performing, especially back in February of '09, the bicentennial of Lincoln's birth on 2/12/1809 near present-day Hodgenville, Kentucky, where literally hundreds of "our kind of emancipator" attended. |
Interests | Reading The Nation regularly, and reading aloud to my wife, Nancy, notably Michael Connelly, Barbara Kingsolver and Anna Quindlen books; singing and playing guitar accompaniment for my repertoire, especially my Gainesville "gig"; biking to the beach in Ormond Beach and for errands in Jacksonville; horticulture/agriculture; and caring for my aged mother. |
