About Me

[When will then be now...(About 83% of the most unbelievable stories from East Meadow involve myself. If you ever hear about The Scroach, The Benchmode Squad, the abduction of the official Big Chief Day Camp Flower and various Lawn Gnomes, The Hamburglers, Life's Not Fair, Sockboy, Break Dancing Louis, The Battle of White Castle between the Tape Dealer and the men in Labcoats....yeah that was me (and believe me I'm leaving a lot out). I've calmed down a considerable amount from my youth, I'd like to think of myself as a storyteller who does not tell stories. I visit Manhattan frequently and enjoy it, but I would despise living there- too lonely. I can be very quiet at times and sometimes I am very extroverted and funny. I always enjoy an intelligent conversation, and when people want to be absurd and talk about flux capacitors and Couture's Light, well....you get the idea...do you?)...soon.]
