: About Me

My profession is to educate, but I have done this within school systems, private sectors, businesses, and personal ventures. My avocation is to write in verse or fiction and to explore through non-fiction the effect the world has had on me as evidenced by the decisions I have made to mold my life into the form it has now. I know that every decision can lead down a different path and that there are rare opportunities to retrace the steps to do it all over again.
There is so much more that a bigraphical novel is the only viable option.

My passion is ...

to write; to love to live; to live to love and share it all with someone with the same passion for life.

I know too much about ...

nothing and not enough about everything.

My parents always told me ...

that I would surely understand what they knew when I became a parent myself.

My childhood ambition ...

was to dream about all I could be but settle for the most that was practical, possible, and affordable.

My favorite memory ...

is that I can remember what I don't want to forget and to forget all that I don't want to remember.

Why I write ...

is all too evident: I write to make permanent those passing thoughts that would otherwise be lost. The intent is to share those thoughts with those who may enjoy vicariously what I experienced and to learn from my mistakes or see events in their own lives that may be more evident through the eyes of another.

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

I read all that I can while watching as many flicks that reflect my interest, my hopes, my dreams, my fears, my anticipations, and my unattained hopes. I listen most often to classical music and folk rock.

My first job ...

involved carrying Good Humor ice cream on Coney Island beach; the lesson learned was the more items sold, the lighter the burden became.

My best moment ...

could be the next, for which I may be forever grateful.

My inspiration ...

is to continue to live as if my next moment will be my last.

Sports & Recreation > College Football Assessing the need for a post-bowl, four-team playoff in college football

2 of 5

Getting Bowled Over and Out  This year, 2011 and carrying over to the first two weeks of 2012, thirty-five (35) football BOWL games will sate the hunger of even the most ravenous of cravings for non-stop gridiron action. It is not enough that the nation is entrenched in the beginnings of the college basketball season and nearing the end of the National Football League contests which are vying for the rights to the lion’s share of the viewing public’s need to be glutted with the playoffs leading to the Superbowl, but more and more schools are demanding their perceived right...
