It’s supposedly a really funny thing to the rest of my family. Whenever I had to tie a shoe during a college or NBA game I knew my friends and fam were gonna give me shit after the game for “doing bunny ears at the end of the the third”.

I waited on Donny Osmund at the Bennigan’s in Boston while I was in college.
I fucked up the entire order (horrifically) and we had to comp the meal for the whole table.

I once accidentally yelled at Bono in Dublin airport.
It had been a bad day.
So, as I stood in the crowded boarding line, I was in no mood to feel the tapping of a stranger’s finger on my shoulder.
I ignored it.
And ignored it.
Finally I turned & shouted,
“WHAT?!”
It was Bono.

I sang in club bands and spent time on the road before I went back to school and got a degree in Music.
Now I just sing and dance and play piano all by my lonesome every night.

I met and shook hands with Caprain Gerald Coffee, the Navy pilot whose Vietnam POW bracelet I wore during the early 70s.He was a featured speaker at the tech company where I worked. When I got up to him in line, I could not speak. Will never forget that moment.

FUN FACT: I took tap lessons way back in 1990, which I loved. But ever since then, when I'm sitting at a desk, on the subway, or at home on the couch, I tap my feet to some beat only I can hear. 😂

Random fact horn tooting: I’ve never done any kind of art, and during the pandemic decided to take up oil painting. These were my first three.
