I have a girl’s name, and I don’t eat vegetables. That’s all most people notice about me. It’s okay, though, because I never get sick. I have not thrown up in over 13 years. I apparently look angry even when I am not.

I am a radio host and producer. Working at a classical radio station allows me to get paid for listening to the music I most enjoy. I host shows on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, in addition to directing the evening newscast and a weekly program about antiques and collectibles. I am a published photographer and writer, as well.

I am also a: nostalgist, lover of cardinals, eater of cereal, collector of recordings and watcher of documentaries. I enjoy learning about history, especially the American Civil War, WWII and European history. I feel old. I live in Gainesville, Florida.

About This Website -

I don’t consider this a blog as much as a diary. I have been a diarist since January 1, 1997, when I realized I was forgetting far too much of my life. The posts on this webpage serve the primary purpose of allowing me to describe my life, even its most mundane details. If others find something to enjoy here, so much the better, but that is not my stated objective. If I sometimes seem to be writing to readers other than myself, consider that I have never been a stream-of-consciousness thinker. I categorically reject that style. I write the way I think, just as I attempt to speak the way I write. My posts are composed as though I will be reading them ages hence, which might explain, to some degree, why it appears I am speaking to a wider audience.

Follow the links at the top of each page to explore the site. If you are not my confirmed enemy and would like a password to read the protected posts, send me an email via the Contact page. If you cannot solve the security question on your own, use Google. I welcome readers’ comments on my posts, though understand that I make no pretense of respecting freedom of expression on this page. If you write something abusive or offensive you will probably never see it, or it will be swiftly deleted. On the other hand, if you disagree with my many strong opinions, and do so in a civil way, I will respect your honesty, and you likely will see your comment appear. Please note, too, that comments from first-time posters do not appear immediately.
