About Me

I am your source for all things Coventry and Lebanon, and for most things Andover. Those are the towns that I cover for the Willimantic Chronicle. I also cover Franklin, but don't ask me about anything there unless a plane crashes or something like that.

My Interests

Living

I'd like to meet:

Bill O'Reily...so I can punch him in the face.

Pretty much anything. Favorites include Rage Against the Machine, Dave Matthews Band, Bob Marley, The Roots, Notorious BIG, Jimi Hendrix, Aerosmith, Jack Johnson, Talib Kweli, Incubus, Led Zepplin, Mos Def, Sublime, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pearl Jam, Nas, Nirvana, Shinedown

Heroes:

All my heroes are dead and gone, except for McLovin.
