I taught broadcasting at Parkland College in Champaign, Illinois, and was general manager of WPCD-FM for 26 years.  I retired in June 2007, and have been writing a lot this past year.

My latest book (May 2008) is The Metal Detecting Manual.

My other books are manuals on adult slowpitch softball, buying web space at bargain prices, and making a web site for your high school graduating class.  

I do two podcasts (internet radio shows you can listen to anytime), one on metal detecting and one on softball.

I also sell autographs. 

My wife Kathy teaches art classes at her Kaleidoscope Art Studio.

Old-time radio occupies much of my time.

Here's an overly-long story about my life in radio.

How I lost 35 pounds in four months, and have kept it off for four years (and no,  I'm not trying to sell you anything).

How I built a backyard fire pit for twelve bucks.

We rub elbows with celebrities.

Karen Goes To Washington (The Funny Side of DC).

Here's the site I built for my graduating class at Ben Davis HS in Indianapolis, 1965.

And finally, here's your own personal audio greeting!
