I grew up here. Now I live here. I work here and sometimes here.

My boss pays me to tell stories. And that’s good because I don’t have any other skills (except that I sing reasonably well for this choir, but no one pays me).

I have told stories about some interesting things, such as: alien signals, Chinese labor, heartbreaking death, infuriating death, a dead person’s ashes, a sex offender village, the environment, Salvadoran poverty, a wannabe airplane smuggler, bad cops, a Tea Party lobbyist, dragonflies (fascinating!), gas drilling and python hunting.

On assignment I have: explored China, interviewed John Kerry and Lance Armstrong at the same time, puked into the ocean, choked on mace-filled paintballs and hunted pythons.

I am working on a book about being old.
