Using only a plastic bag and a small pocketknife, I could survive for days in any jungle. I play drums and percussion. I can play piano, bass, and even some guitar if forced. By pure accident, I invented the “Snow Angelâ€. I have performed on hundreds of stages across the country from Los Angeles to New York. I have performed in front of millions at the opening ceremonies of the 94 World Cup games. I can tap my head and rub my stomach simultaneously. I have tour managed. I do session work. I have released numerous CD's. I have been in many news reports and articles. I have charmed business owners. When I'm bored, I inundate myself with large quantities of useless trivial knowledge. I am an abstract artist, a concrete analyst, and a ruthless negotiator. I don't perspire often. I am a private citizen, yet I sometimes receive fan mail. I toured the States from south Florida to Los Angeles. I can hurl tennis rackets at small moving objects with deadly accuracy. I know the exact location of almost every food item in the supermarket. I can perform covert operations, but I can’t mention it. I have endorsements with Calato/Regal Tip drumsticks, and Aquarian Drum Heads. I could sleep only once a week ... in a chair. The laws of physics do not apply to me. I balance, I weave, I dodge, I frolic, and my bills are all paid. I manage time efficiently, when I get to it. I can pilot bicycles up severe inclines with unflagging speed, and I cook thirty-minute meals in twenty minutes. On weekends, to let off steam, I compose, record, and edit small symphonies. Years ago I discovered the meaning of life, but forgot to write it down. I have made extraordinary four course meals using only a candle and a toaster oven. I have been to the running of the bulls in Chicago, cliff-diving competitions in Mexico, and the castles of Portugal. I am tri-lingual. I have great ears and I am well motivated...
