Known as Big Mike at Jerry's; The Coach at Blaneys, City Market and Barley's; The Admiral at the 75th Street Brewery. I get to be a Swim coach to a great bunch of kids. I get to be a Rock/Blues singer whenever I can sit in at a jam. ----------I am a Best Friend to the few I have come to trust. ----------My idea of a shot and a beer is a pint of Bully Stout or Guinness and an MGD (if you have seen, you know). ----------If I had time I would join some friends and be in a band but I don't have time. But I would love to do it. ----------I have a daughter and a son, both great people and I love them. ----------I do have a women in my life at last, I forgot how soft women were. Life is getting better!.
