I
have been a broadcaster and entertainer for...well, all
my life...I can remember my mother taking me aside when
I was around ten and telling me that even comedians need
a good education, so I had better buckle down and learn!
I have done stand-up comedy...I have been a radio
personality for most of my career.... I have been on the
air in los angeles, dc, denver and all over the country
via the unistar radio network and the jones satellite
radio network, and all over europe via the american
forces network. I was in the army for
12-years...didn't stay because I had reached a rank
where they wouldn't let me on the air anymore. my
last assignment was in the pentagon producing video
documentaries for the dept of the army and the dept of
defense...over the years, I have interviewed just about
everyone from alice cooper to zz top...I spent a week on
the road with darryl hall and john oates...worked as a
roadie for yes at a concert in amsterdam...sat up all
night talking politics with dee snyder of twisted
sister...ozzie osbourne and his wife baby-sat for my son
once...played soccer with def leppard...when I was
assigned to brussels, I lived in a cottage built into
the wall of an 800 year-old abbey...had great halloween
parties...I have dined at fouquet's on the champs ellese...and
the macdonald's a few blocks away from it...I have been
a guest at the table of the ambassadress to belgium and
I have shared a pizza over a heating grate with a group
of homeless men in nashville...I have shared an
incredible steak dinner with friends at morton's in
chicago and shared cold m.r.e.s with peasants in a
Japanese rice paddy...I have seen incredible
ice-sculptures in innsbuck, austria and felt like an ice
sculpture on the slopes at crested butte...found a mr.
donut in tokyo where you can get a great cup of american
coffee...but also discovered that ordering a quarter
pounder at the macdonald's across the street from it was
a very bad idea...the japanese eat their burgers
rare....extremely rare! I was born in
Oklahoma…lived in new mexico, texas, Pennsylvania,
North Carolina, Germany and Belgium, but have lived in
Colorado for so long, I must be an honorary native by
now.
