Profile GeneratorI'm a newspaperman. We're a dying breed. Pretty soon we'll be gone, but until that day I intend to afflict the powerful and give power to the afflicted to the best of my ability. I also just want to tell a good story. Please don't lump me in with "The Media." I'm not some cable television windbag. I'm a simple reporter and writer trying to chronicle what it was like to be alive in Worcester at this time. Yes, I'm liberal in my personal views, but I keep that out of my work, and it's not like I write about national politics. I'm a veteran of the U.S. Army. I get uncomfortable when people try to thank me for that. Nice of them to say, but you paid my salary, American taxpayers, and now we're all square. You don't owe me a thing. Thanks. Anyway, I served in Iraq during the 1991 Gulf War and then went back during the current war as an embedded reporter for the Boston Herald.
I try to have a good sense of humor about life, and I love to laugh and make sarcastic cracks. I consider sarcasm an art form. I have an active imagination that sometimes can isolate me from people. I have a tendency to live in my head not in the world around me, but lately I've made some great friends who make me want to resist my tendency toward introversion. Thanks to you. Sometimes I wish I could stop time for a couple of days or weeks. Wouldn't that be cool?
Music is my passion. I listen to a lot of music and go to many shows, and I've been learning how to play the guitar for several years now. I will be keeping my day job, trust me, but I have a lot of fun with it. Support local live music. Go to a show. I might buy you a beer.
