About DragonFlyEye.Net

DragonFlyEye.Net is a website dedicated to providing a Rochester voiceon the Internet for progressive politics and local entertainment. It began in 2004 after the elections primarilyout of my frustration with the outcome. Yes, it was sour-grapes.

However, since then, I have endevoured to create what I hope to be a readable and informative website that can bea good resource. Right now, I am looking for people to help out with the site, writing articles and contributing tothe blog. If you'd like to contribute, you can drop me a line here or add me to your friendsto stay informed. Right now, I don't make any money off the website, but am using it to promote things like Clean Money, Clean Elections , which is an effort to bring public financing of elections to New York State. Perhaps in the future I will be able to drum up some cash, but right now, it's strictly writing and promoting.

About Me

Born and raised in Rochester, NY. Currently working as a for-hire web design freelancer.

Born on September sixth, 1974. I don't remember much, but those that were there tell me it was "pretty cool."

I've lived in 12 different houses in my lifetime, but somehow never lived outside the Rochester area. Depressing but true.

Wine drinker, beer drinker, whiskey drinker. . . Drinker.

Currently living with my wife, [ Sarah ] two female cats [Dixie and Emma], a female fish[Raina], and a metrosexual bird [Sheonid].You'll have to ask Sarah about the bird. . . .

All my free time not spent with Sarah is devoted to my webpage, DragonFlyEye.Net , offering Progressive Politics, Art, Food and Culture information in (whereelse) Rochester.

Drink Milk!
