I run the family restaurant business. I am the chair of the Crown of Maine Balloon Fest and am consequently learning to fly hot air balloons. I am trying to learn the guitar at 35. Also, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals have turned my music world on its ear.

Screw this I can not just sum up my film journey in a f'n list. Seriously, this listing thing is silly, but since I started. Herbert, Heinlen, Brown, King, Adams, Tolkein, Asimov, Crichton, Rowling, etc... People of Interest:I like them with some fava beans and a nice chianti. Places of Interest:My happiness has more to do with who, than where. Things of Interest:Kayaking, guitar, hot air ballooning, camping, gaming, my kids, my wife, NFL, specifically the Eagles, home theatre, theatre, music, the truth, politics (as you can see I am conflicted). It would be safe to say that I am interested in all that life has to offer, except some of that freaky stuff that's legal in Amsterdam.  Private |
