About Me



I'm married, live in a sleepy little Westchester town and attempt to teach for a living at a school in Connecticut. I value education, honesty, and hard work. I love my wife and my dog and hate all things Massachusettes except for Provincetown, Choke from Slapshot, and baked beans. I have a thing for cephalopods and don't think people should eat them because they are cognizant, sentient beings. I am a big Barack Obama supporter and can watch episodes of "The Office" for hours at a time. I believe in Chupacabras. I love a crossword puzzle and a cold PBR in a can. I'm a dorky metal head who likes to throw his horns up. Joba Chamberlain and Mao Tse Tung are my heroes. I think Hemmingway is the quintessential american author and Dostoyevsky is the best writer of all time, except for maybe Bukowski. Did I mention that I am a big dork?

JFK HS will always have a special place in my heart...
