About Me I'm an avid reader. And besides, how can anyone be creative and not read fiction, poetry or great literature. It's what I do. Words can bless, curse or inspire. Some can take you away to another place and some can bring you home. Just a few that I've read are... Stephen King (Cell, Hearts In Atlantis, Pet Sematary, From A Buick 8) Ray Bradbury (Fahrenheit 451, The Martian Chronicles) Orwell's 1984, Dean Koontz (Odd Thomas, Servants Of Twilight,Watchers) Stephen Covey (7 Habits Of Highly Effective People) Richard Matheson. Roy Williams. (Wizard Of Ads series)Joel Osteen (You're Best Life Now) Rick warren (The Purpose Driven Life)Leonard Koppett (Thinking Fan's Guide To Baseball) The Biography of Ty Cobb by Al Stump... I Like to read Biographies, too! I'm a writer and I like to do karaoke... I've been a host for the last 10 years. Coming up on May 31, 2008 I'll be hosting a karaoke contest featuring contestants from Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Ask me about the details, I'd love to see you there!

Favorite Country Singer Barbara Mandrell

Favorite New School Country Song Anything by Toby Keith!

Favorite Old School Country Song I Walk The Line

Other Music I get into all kinds of music, as long as it can touch me emotionally in some way. I'm especially fond of old school country and I own thousands of titles... been that way since I was 5! :-)

Movies Any Stephen King movie, loved The Mist... I Am Legend... written by Richard Matheson, a favorite author of mine!

TV In the summer it's literally Baseball, Baseball and Baseball! I subscribe to MLB Extra innings for all out of market baseball games and it's mostly the only thing on my TV all evening. I also get Gameday Audio from MLB for radio broadcasts of all out of market games. In another life I want to be a baseball announcer.. I think I'd be pretty good at it! I'd also like to try my hand as the Official Scorer at a major league ballpark.

Books I remember when Jackie Kennedy died, her son John Kennedy Jr came outside of her NY Apartment and in announcing that she has passed, he remarked that by her side were family and her books. It brought tears to my eyes and I thought that was how I want to to go out too!

Favorite Lions/Tigers/Pistons/Red Wing Tigers and Wings!

Smoke No

Drink Yes

Heros My Uncle Walt! He's a guy who is loved by everyone who meets him, never ever has an ill word to say about anyone, and rarely gets angry. He's a former minor league ball player (played with Hal Newhouser), former City Councilman for Walled Lake and is involved in numerous charities and is always helping someone out.

Deserted on an island? One CD, One book, One friend? The one book I would want to have would be "The Guide To Practical Ship Building!"
