About me

Ah, its my chance to tell about me! Lets just say that I am not the usual space in a crowd. I realize at times that I can let my over-zealous attitude on a variety of subjects get the best of me. I am a radio/television talent. I have been a full time on air talent in South Florida for nearly 28 years, and also do side work as on camera talent for infomercials, and cuts in for a local television station. I guess being in those working roles does tend to give me a larger sense of self worth, but as most of you don't know.. we folks in the media business are there to over come our horrible shyness! By being on the air ( radio ) it gives me the chance to be the alter ego, and portray myself as the " I really have my stuff together" kind of guy. When I'm off the air, its another subject.
I have a wonderful wife ( 2nd) named Jessica, and 2 step daughters, Erin and Jillian. From my first marriage, i have two great grown sons, Matthew and Sean.
I am an avid scuba diver, and fanatic tennis player. I also love to cook, and pair fine wines to fine foods.

It's a hard concept to understand. Me being fired. You have to be kidding ( as my mind was racing) I said to the boss that horrible Friday in 2006.Your kidding right Bob, I mean, this is joke right? No, its not he replied, with the most disgusting scowl I can remember seeing. THIS was a guy who smiled at me in the halls, invited me and the family over for cook-outs, and always gave me top rated job reviews.I was told my position in the company was because of budget cuts.I guess at the time it seemed reasonable, but after a few months I wondered why my contemporaries at the radio station wer...
