About Me

I'm an old fart, but still a kid at heart. At least that's what the kids tell me. I'm a school teacher and I can't believe I get paid to have this much fun. I teach social studies and coach basketball I'm married to a wonderful lady and I have a little boy who blows me away everyday. It's so neat watching him grow...and I mean grow. He'll be playing forward for the Lakers any day now....or throwing a touchdown pass in the Super Bowl.
