About Me

Every now and then you have to freshen things up a bit. Make people look at what you are doing again. I spend a little too much time being mad, but that is perfectly fine, because I can see where it is going and it is a better place. You need an energy expenditure to get from one place to another, and anger is just as good a fuel as any. I am a fan of all things Cleveland, including their sports teams (not so much the Cavs, but I find basketball incredibly boring). I follow politics, but I am not even close to rabid about it. I used to be, but when you see what there is to follow, you get put off by it. Other than my wife and my family, I enjoy hockey, reading, walks, playing strategy games, and travelling. I am a huge fan of history, mainy American history (which is very rich and incredibly underrated), and any books about crativity, or that deal with a simple subject in a creative way. I am a literacy tutor for ESOL students, and hope to someday do work in the field of education, or just use my skills to educate.
