This page is a place for me to send friends and family to when they ask things like "what's new?" and "what have you been up to?" - it's a way for me to avoid telling the same stories over and over again without remembering what I've already told them before. I recently enabled the ability to post comments so go for it!

Oh great, another problem with my car
Tonight the glass roof wouldn't close all the way. It only shut about 2/3 of the way before stopping. I reopened it and tried closing again several times but every attempt turned out the same. Good thing I drive well with my knees so I could push the button with one hand while pulling the glass with the other hand. I've barely had it 20 months and it only has 35,000 miles on it. Piece of junk.

It's not supposed to be this cold now!
It was 41 degrees at my house overnight. About an hour away it snowed. But tonight is the beginning of summer fireworks season at the beach so I'm digging out my winter parka right now.

Pissed off
Pisses me off that I have a $39k 2012 car in which I can't listen to the Bruins because the #SiriusXM #Ford radio doesn't go above chan 184
Hello?!?!? Is this thing still on???
Wow, I haven't been here in three years?!? Amazing how time flies. Maybe I will start using this again. Between Facebook and Twitter and Instagram and message boards and online forums, the world needs more ways to find out about me, right?

Three more new Hooters this week (and a return to another)
Tuesday I went to three more Hooters locations that I had not been to yet, bringing my total up to 79 different locations all together.
My 77th Hooters was Hooters of Casselberry (near Orlando). The place looks like it's been there for a while but the food and the service were fine. I liked that they had a pool table and some arcade games and I especially liked the weekly contests that they do - Texas Hold 'Em on Mondays, Guitar Hero contests on Tuesdays, Wii game contests on Wednesdays, and "Are You Smarter Than A Hooters Girl?" on Thursdays (I REALLY wish I was there on a Thursday). I could have done without listening to Nickelback songs though, and found myself missing the typical oldies mix.

My 78th Hooters was Hooters of Waterford Lakes (near Orlando). I had a dessert there that we don't have around here: Fried Apple Caramel Bites (or something like that). The food and service were fine here, too.
I took a little break from Hooters and went to Universal Studios in Orlando to ride some rides. The Shrek and Mummy rides are among my favorites. It was late in the day and they closed early so I missed out on some of the new stuff, such as the new Simpsons ride that took the place of the Back To The Future ride.
My 79th Hooters was in Sanford, FL. They had a wonderful white sangria which went down way too easily and some mini chicken sandwiches similar in size to their Training Burgers (just like White Castle sliders). My mom was there and she told them that my birthday is in a few weeks so they made me get up on a chair and put paper cups in my mouth and plates in my hand and had me flap my arms.
And as if all that wasn't enough, Friday night I went back to my home-base Hooters in Saugus, MA.

Summer and Fall 2008 Update (because I know everyone was waiting for it, right?)
I went to NYC a bunch of times this summer to see friends and to go to a birthday party, a wedding, and an annual softball game which draws people from all over the country...no, I don't actually play at the softball games, I just socialize...and apparently I also drink because I always have a cup in my hand in every pic...


I tried making cookies on the grill at the game - not one of my best ideas...

I also went to XM radio several times to see some radio shows and catch up with some friends. I met the wonderful adult movie star Bree Olson a few times there this summer - she let me get up close and personal...VERY close (hint: she's topless in this pic)...

On another visit to the XM studios I went to see my pals, The Than & Sam Show. It was around Sam's birthday and since they surprised me with a little birthday party on their show earlier in the year, I surprised Sam with a cake and his favorite chicken fingers...


After the presentation of the gifts they sent me out on the street with one of their interns to pick up chicks to bring up into the studio for their show.
When I wasn't in NYC, I spent lots of time up at Lake Winnipesaukee, NH and Old Orchard Beach, ME as I usually do every summer. In fact one trip to ME started about 20 mins after I got home from a NYC trip - there was no traffic so I got home early and the weather was just too nice to stay home so I packed some clothes and hit the road again.
At the lake, as usual I spent a lot of time at the NASWA. I was there for their annual bikini contest...
One trip to the lake included trying to get my friend Ben waterskiing. It was my first time piloting a boat with a skier on the back and I didn't do so well, however I enjoyed seeing him fall face down on the water six or seven times.
Ben and I went on a Boston harbor booze cruise. The awesome Aerosmith tribute band Draw The Line played - they look and sound like the real thing and they play all kinds of songs that the real band doesn't. We also bumped into radio guy Scorch on the cruise...
We had no idea that he was going to be there. Sam from the aforementioned Than & Sam show used to work for Scorch years ago and I'd heard many stories about Scorch before and had heard him on the radio before. He was there filming for his online TV show which Ben and I got into a little (a little after six minutes into this clip).
In September I worked on a Mel Gibson movie in Boston where I was one of hundreds of commuters at a train station so good luck trying to find me in the crowd. The Dane Cook movie that I worked on last year finally came out and I could be seen a few times.
In October I had a supporting actor role in a play and I directed another play (my first time directing).
Also in October I went to another Hooters. This was the opening day of their location in Saugus, MA. This makes my third Hooters grand opening day and my 76th Hooters overall.
I was then interviewed by THE most popular and sucessful Hooters blog. Read it here.

I finally cut and donated my hair
I had been growing it for three years to donate it to Locks of Love.
These were taken less than ten mins before getting it cut. I had them cut off 11 inches. I still have about two inches left so I have a head start for next time.

I touched Sandra Bullock's butt
I was walking behind Sandy (as she is called on the set) during a rehearsal for a movie, she stepped backwards, and her butt rubbed up against my right leg and butt.
She smells nice. She is quite attractive in person and has a great personality. Ryan Reynolds also has a good personality and seemed fun.

My scene in 21
Since some friends and family have asked, I am in this scene, about 6-7 minutes into the movie, right after a scene in which the main character is talking about a scholarship to a professor in an office with a fireplace.
I start off under the awning and walk around the corner. I look goofy and my fat ass looks gigantic on the big screen as I walk out of frame.

I'm not a doctor, but I played one in a movie
I'm not a doctor, but I played one in a movie.
I was originally supposed to be a patient but wardrobe didn't have any hospital gowns (for a scene at a hospital!?!?!?) so they gave me blue scrubs and white clogs. Props gave me a hospital ID badge of a Cardiologist to complete the outfit. Instant doctor.
I did a quick scene with TV's Sarah Connor. I was so excited because I really liked that show and I really really like her. But there were a few of us walking back and forth so I don't think I was in a good position to be in the frame with her. And all I could think about during the scene was how could I get alone with her and tell her how much I like her.
But I did have a really good scene with the male lead, Josh Lucas. It was just the two of us alone in a small hallway. Three takes. I liked the last one and they said it was perfect. I hope it gets used.
Also on this shoot was "Omar" from The Wire, but I had nothing to do with him.
When I got there in the morning I found out that they planned for me to use my car in one scene. I rode with a Production Assistant to a parking garage where the scene was taking place. I had to take a ticket from the machine to get into the garage just as any regular customer would. The PA didn't know how the parking would be paid for but he said not to worry. A few hours later I was told by someone else that I should use my acting skills on the parking attendant and drop some names and say that I am working in the movie. I thought he was kidding but he wasn't. I said ''so in other words, you want me to scam my way out of paying?''. He said that I shouldn't think of it like that and I should think of it like acting. Um, ok. Either way it seemed really sketchy to me. But as it turned out we ran very late that night and the parking garage technically closed for the night so the gate was in the upright position for me to get out.
I also just did a movie at the Burlington Mall starring Kevin James. There were about 300 people playing shoppers that day. I didn't do anything noteworthy or remarkable.
