About Me

I continue to be motivated by meaningful quotes and "front row people." I start my day by asking myself "what would I do if I knew I couldn't fail?" Those things should become the goals that we shoot for. Anything less is accepting mediocrity. I was turned on to this site by fellow talk show host "Al B" Now he's a part of the WURD lineup so it's ok to give him his props. I do talk radio, a little PR and marketing, some real estate investing and anything else that appears worth the effort. A 36 year old Philly native who went from G-Town Friends to GWU and back to Philly.Born and raised in Mt Airy and currently doing my best to "live my life like it's golden." It may sound corny but it's true. We only get a limited number of breaths, make sure you use yours to fully experience life. You can check me out M-F 7am-10am on WURD 900AM in Philadelphia. 900AMWURD.com Always looking to meet new people and get some help with developing my page so HELP ME OUT.I will do my best to respond to every comment or add request so please help me spread the "WURD" to all of your friends. I have worked in all aspects of the radio business since I was a child. My father has a long history in Philadelphia radio and because of him I have cleaned up, cut grass, hosted, managed and owned radio stations. My latest venture, aside from some personal real estate investing, is trying to make history as an investor in a proposed casino in Philadelphia. We have a great site, strong financials an excellent entertainment and gaming partner and we would be only the 2nd minority owned and controlled casino company in the country. Check out the diagram in the "Pics" and Cross your fingers for us. Update... as many of you know, unfortunately, the fix was in and we lost out on our casino bid to a bunch of way to politically connected applicants. It was a great education both in the inside dealings of politics and high stakes business. I am happy to have been involved.....even if it cost me a bunch of money to learn the lesson :)Check back soon and thanks for your support!!!

President Bush’s new neighborhood was "white’s only" until 2001??

As much as I love attacking President Bush, I don't blame him at all for this obscure, unenforced policy. It is however an interesting look at an unfortunately divisive history. The neighborhood that ...
