Check out my Bio

YO!  Thanks for visiting my page.  I am one lucky S.O.B., in that I get to crank up the BEST rock and roll ever made every afternoon!  Thanks very much for listening!!


"I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did.'"
Kurt Vonnegut

"I declare that The Beatles are mutants. Prototypes of evolutionary agents sent by God, endowed with a mysterious power to create a new human species, a young race of laughing freemen."
Timothy Leary
