| BIO: | I grew up in Farmington Hills. Worked in film around Detroit from 1998-2006. In June of 2006 I took a job at a film editing, animation and special effects house in downtown Chicago.
Now I sport an Orange "away" Detroit Tigers hat and rep the D from 269 miles away.
I miss the 313 and will be back but for now I must see the world. Next stop.. NYC.. then Madrid.. then I want to live in a loft in Detroit but spend most of my weekends up in a cottage in Northern Michigan somewhere.

| TELEVISION: | I PREFER REALITY TO REALITY TELEVISION. in college studying film/video i learned you use less brainwaves while watching television than you do while sleeping. so i prefer sleep to television. back in the day when i was into it i watched things like quantam leap, you can't do that on television, punky brewster, the polka dot door, today's special, kids in the hall, monty python, invader zim, saturday nite live, south park ,whose line is it anyway? I did just get the Dick Van Dyke DVD boxed set and I LOVE how well it was written, I wish TV today was as good, not that i'm a very good judge because i gave on on TV a long time ago! I do like Dave Chappelle's show.
