About Me

Hello. My name is Rick Amburgey and I am 29 years old. I live in Ohio in the Franklin/Carlisle area.I am a 1995 graduate of Carlisle High School and a two-time graduate of Northern Kentucky University. I earned a Bachelors degree in Journalism in 2001 and a Bachelors degree in English Education in 2003.I am a newspaper reporter and I love my job. I'm often found at my favorite hangout - JD Legends is Franklin. Let me count the reasons I love JD Legends - there's a first-class restaurant, a bowling alley, karaoke on weekends, live trivia, NTN trivia, an outdoor tiki bar where live bands play on weekends in the spring/summer, cornhole and sand volleyball courts. It's just the place to be! I am proud to call many of the employees of JD Legends my friends.

My Interests

I am a huge fan of the Ohio State Buckeyes - football and basketball. Go Bucks! I am also a Bengals and a Reds fan. I like some other teams too, but those are my favorites. I am glued to the TV on Saturdays and Sundays during football season. I say that I'm a fan of the game!

I'd like to meet:

Conway Twitty, Chad Johnson, Carson Palmer, Ted Ginn, Jr.

Music:

I like everything, but I am a big country musio fan.

Movies:

I have the Blockbuster Total Access pass, so I watch a LOT of movies. Want to know if one is good or not? Just ask me... chances are I've seen it.

Television:

24, American Idol, Jericho, Close To Home. Just about any sporting event that happens to be on at the time.

Books:

I am a big John Grisham fan. I've also written three novels:)
