HeroesDr. Jonas Salk -- Inventor of the Polio Vaccine Jonas Edward Salk (October 28, 1914 – June 23, 1995) was an American physician and researcher best known for the development of the first successful polio vaccine (the eponymous Salk vaccine). Salk did not seek wealth or fame through his innovations, famously stating, "Who owns my polio vaccine? The people! Could you patent the sun?" -- Salk could have been richer than Bill Gates but CHOSE NOT TO PATENT the vaccine (Salk wanted the vaccine to be inexpensive and the patent process itself would have delayed the distribution of the vaccine) and instead wipe out polio ASAP saving millions of children from being crippled.

About me:
I am 49 years old, very happily married to my dazzling and delightful wife and have a funny, smart and fun to be with teenage son. The main reason I created a MySpace page was so that I could collect all of my various blogs on a wide range of subjects and a wide range of posting sites in one place and accidentally delete them all from there rather than continuing on in the scattershot, helter-skelter, catch-as-catch-can method of disappearing my writing into nothingness that I have been employing up to now. I like to blog about the entertainment industry, sports, politics and just about anything. My main goal is just to try to be funny and creative. I know that I can come across as a little meanspirited sometimes but honestly that is not my intention. I am only trying to be funny and make people laugh. Think of what I write as if it were a "Roast" and not to be taken that seriously. Some of my favorite sites to post on are Vote For The Worst and Hollywood Rag. Most of my online time is spent relentlessly corresponding and aggressively negotiating with a certain Nigerian friend of mine unsuccessfully trying to hammer out a deal regarding the wire transfer of a large sum of money on which I stand to make quite a handsome profit. I am not at liberty to disclose his identity but just let me say ... he can be a "ROYAL" pain in the butt sometimes. LOL! Lastly, my wife and son read everything I write so although it may not all be exactly G-Rated material I can live with what I write.
Who I'd like to meet:
I enjoy meeting all kinds of people and always welcome the opportunity to make new friends. In the summertime we entertain A LOT and have pool parties and cookouts almost every weekend. I am something of an expert at Marco Polo. That is not being cocky, just confident. The person whom I have never met but would most like to be stranded on a desert island with? The short list? David Sedaris or Moe Szyslak. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I would also LOVE to meet anybody who has purchased one of the T-shirts that I created on Zazzle. If you have already bought one please send me your picture wearing it. If you have not bought one already please take a look at them and buy your top seven or eight favorite ones!!! They are great for Back-To-School wear and perfect as Stocking Stuffers!!!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Originally from 'Peter Bjorn and John ft Victoria Bergsman', but recently covered by 'the Kooks':

"If you knew my story word for word
Had all of my history
Would you go along with someone like me?"


Well, you know my story now..

The salesman stopped at a farmhouse one evening to ask for room and board for the night. The farmer told him there was no vacant room.
"I could let you sleep with my daughter," the farmer said, "if you promise not to bother her."
The salesman agreed. After a hearty supper, he was led to the room. He undressed in the dark, slipped into bed, and felt the farmer's daughter at his side.
The next morning he asked for his bill.
"It'll be just two dollars, since you had to share the bed," the farmer said.
"Your daughter was very cold," the salesman said.
"Yes, I know," said the farmer. "We're going to bury her today.
