About Me

Lets see..... I've marched in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade... I've studied Historic Preservation in Russia twice... I've been shot at while on an archaeological dig in Ecuador... I've bribed the Russian mafia to ride on their train to Moscow... I've flown a plane ... I've almost been arrested on charges that I was a spy for the Peruvian Army... I'm currently employed as a Federal Agent (altho I dont get a badge but I DO have one from "Ghost Town" certifying me as "Deputy Marshall John")... I've sailed First Class aboard the Queen Mary 2... I ran WMNJ 88.9fm "The Voice of Drew University" and managed to get us ranked as one of the top 10 college radio stations in "Rolling Stone Magazine" (and yes..thats on my resume!)... I'm almost fluent in French... I can get by pretty well in Russian... I know a couple of words in Spanish... I can order a bottle of wine (and a hooker) in German... I only know obscenities in Greek and Italian... Guess that makes me pretty well-rounded.For those of you who are REALLY curious about what I do when I'm not online, I'm a city planner (specializing in historic preservation and downtown revitalization). In other words, if you want to know what I do for a living, check out the video below....
