About Me

I am an easy going guy who likes to have fun. I think I am one of the reasons that six degrees of separation actually works (I know TOO MANY people). I have a nephew who I love so much and I am also lucky enough to be his Godfather (insert Brando impression here) and I now have a lovely niece too! I love to watch the Steelers, Pirates, and Penguins. I believe that everyone should be treated with respect, and when I see someone being treated unfairly I am not afraid to speak up. I take a tremendous amount of pride in my Irish and Italian heritage, but I am proud to live in this country where anyone can succeed if they work hard enough.

My Interests

I like movies, comedy, music, magic, and hanging with my friends. I bartended part-time for the last 7 years. I think that I may be addicted to myspace. I like Diet Pepsi, Wendy's, Qdoba, Mad Mex, bright blue skies, cheesy jokes, hot girls in Mitsubishis (I know you are looking), IC Light, Guinness, hot sauce, taking long walks, trivia games, shamrocks, Vincent van Gogh, rum, Fiji Water, and Purell.
