I\'m a web wheeler.  full time.

The pay is poor but it\'s enough that I can afford to wheel my Jetta at the mall sometimes on weekends.  They have some badass curbs, and man... that new speedbump by Sears is just awesome.

Let\'s see…
occupations, careers, jobs… hummmmmmmm…

At 12 yrs. old I was the runner delivering the Sunday morning paper in the southern hills of the Buffalo area from an old jeep (my introduction to jeeps).

At 16 I was a pump jockey and assistant mechanic at a garage.

I worked as a water plant operator in Hornell.

I spent 5 1/2 years as an FCC licensed electronics technician at a local tv station.

I was a stage manager at a dinner theater… (I did the sound effects of a gargling cat off stage… my big break in show-business)

Spent a couple of years as the maintenance staff for a condo management company in Ft. Lauderdale… cleaned pools, got tan, watched the babes.

Worked as a waiter in a steak house in Pampano.

Spent two days shucking oysters in a gay restaurant called the Pink Flamingo… (don\'t even think about it!!!... I was young and stupid)

Skippered a small sailboat for a retired industrialist from Ohio.

Worked as an international industrial tool and die smuggler, if the statute of limitations has run out… if it hasn\'t… I was the international shipping clerk.

I was a camera man at a television station.

For the last 27 years, I\'ve been writing, producing and directing national, regional and local tv shows and commercials.

My best job and most cherished title for the last 25 years has been \"dad\"… although the pay is lousy… the rewards overshadow everything else I\'ve ever experienced.

I wish I had a big, cool sounding title that made my job seem more significant than it is but I don\'t. I own and operate a fence company, so in words I\'m a professional hole digger.
