About me: Playwright, Screenwriter, Filmmaker, Actor, and Graphic Artist (for $). I live in New York City, and I work a lot with a theatre group called The Drilling Company (and I do their website: www.DrillingCompany.org You can see pictures from my plays and other's plays there).
Just finished a production of MacBeth with Hudson Warehouse. I played the Porter and some other small roles. (Everyone who wasn't McB or Lady McB got to be a witch, so that was fun.)
My personal site has most all my short plays and screenplays and snippets from longer works. I recommend my short play La Mouche if you feel like looking. It's fun and quick.
I'm very proud of a full length I've just finished set in Regency England (more or less finished--always tweaking) called The Acquisition.
My buddy and I started a production company, and we've done a few short films and are trying to pitch a horror feature. Checkout that site:

Check out my short film, THE SPECIMEN, below. (Adult humor.)
Hey Stephen, hope all is well. I like the new page layout and your "Specimen" video is pretty funny. We should hang some time and catch up. I'm back on the sauce. LOL! Later.
I got the boobie photo from you too! Thought that was kinda weird!
And, in response to your question, I quit smoking cigarettes (40+ days ago) and I also quit worrying about dating any men. Both happened at about the same time. ;-)
"Aft" refers to the aft engine compartment inside the orbiter, Endeavor. Heh! On a side note: It's not really considered a "space shuttle" until it is attached to the external tank and boosters that take it into space. Isn't that funny?
Not the way I wanted to. *wink wink* but it was great. :-) Took the kiddoes to an all-you-can-eat Asian seafood buffet. I think it's gonna be our new family tradition.
