A good friend of mine once said to me, "For seemingly happy guy, you listen to some really depressing music!" What can I say? I love the blues! Nothings better that relaxing at the end of the day by flopping into one of my over-sized leather chairs and cranking Etta James on my iPod’s headphones. Okay then, lets check the old iPod and see what i have been listening to these days... In alphabetical order...The Alabama 3, Alex Bevan, Allman Bros. Amos Lee, B.B. King, The Black Crowes, THE BLACK KEYS!, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Cat Stevens, Counting Crows, Crowded House, Damian Rice, The Dandy Warhols, MIss Etta James, The Faces, FOY VANCE! Trust m he’s going to be huge!, Sinatra, The Fray, Grerald and Eddie Lavert, Jack Johnson, John Hammond, John Mayer, Johnny Lang, MIchael Buble, Michael McDonald, Mojo NIxon, Morris Day and the Mutha Fuc..%..’ Time!, Neil and Tim Finn, Neil Young, The O’Jays, Paul Carrack, Richie Havens, Rufus Wainwright, Sheryl Crow, Stroke 9, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Susan Tedeschi, Teddy Pendergrass, The Temptations, TOM WAITS!, Van Morrison. Warren Zevon,

HBO, ESPN, LOST, HGTV, Speed TV, That's about all I watch these days. Extras, Lost, Scrubs, The Sopranos, Deadwood, Entourage and Curb your Enthusiasm are the best things on TV by a mile! Sunday is NFL day in my house! Never call me on Sunday... I won't be here and if I am, I won't answer the phone... THE GAME'S ON!

I love movies! But, the older I get the quieter the movies I like. The simpler the better. can't beat a good movie with long, extended, close up shots that allows the actors show just how great some of them are! I love the little stuff now... like the subtle lighting camera angle changes in "The Cooler". It's amazing how much stuff like that effects the overall mood and tone of the movie. My pet peeve about movies? Stupid Super Geniuses! That just ruins the movie for me... See "Spiderman 2"... Dr. Octavius, Super Genius... Has non-magnetic arms made to help him in his experiment... yet the entire freakin' building he's conducting the experiment in in all metal! He does this not once but twice! Hey, I am not a super genius but if I can see the problem from a mile away... STUPID!

Angelina Jolie, Giana LaMonica, Brandy Hanson.
Beth Davidoff... Okay... any hot woman that would let me!

I played "Tim the Bartender" on ABC's Drew Carey Show for nine years and continue to do so in syndication. Hooray residuals! Over the past few years, I have filmed and acted in several "pilots" for NBC and the FOX network. I was also a writer for Nickelodeon's Fairly OddParents and SpongeBob Squarepants. My "day job" is being a stand up comedian that you may or may not recognize from one of my many TV appearances. You can currently hear my voice, or rather, a different version of my voice on Fox's " The Family Guy". I still travel twenty four or so weeks a year performing my standup act around the country. Check my schedule or look for me appearing at a comedy club/semi-impressive venue near you.

I was born and raised in Warren, Ohio and managed to escape to Los Angeles fifteen years ago making me a native Angelino now... relax, I am learning Spanish to fit in. I have been on every standup comedy based television show that pays you once and plays it free forever... Evening at the Improv... Comedy on the Road... Showtime comedy club all stars... the list goes on and on. Oh, and that goes for Comedy Radio and that cell phone comedy crap. Been there, done that, Got the coffee mug, spent the "performance fee" on gas money for the ride home, I was on the Drew Carey Show playing "Tim, the Bartender" for nine years and for the past year and a half I’ve been doing voice work for FOX’s "The Family Guy" and making small films to amuse and annoy my friends and family. Oh... and in my spare time I make custom Myspace pages for my friends. Half of the one’s in my friends section were designed and built by me. OMG! A comic with some actual, real world skills? Call Ripleys!
