Tagged - I’m it
Okay - here are my 5!
- I was born in Atlantic City. No - not under the Boardwalk!
- The most interesting job I ever had was Circus Project Manager for the Boston run of the Big Apple Circus.
- Denis Leary was a year ahead of me in college. In addition to doing stand up comedy, he also wrote incredible poetry and I wish someone would ask him during an interview if he still writes it.
- When I was 16 I won 1st place in the critical review category of National Scholastic Writing Awards. It was a review of the movie “Lenny” and because it was rated “R” my english teacher Agnes Cardoni took me to see it. The movie wasn’t playing in my backwater hometown so she actually drove me to Phildelphia and we stayed overnight with her sister so I could see it. I owe her a huge debt of gratitude for turning me into a good writer - and thank God the prize took care of having to write that dreaded college essay!
- My other interest, after sewing, is origami.
Eenie, meeny, miney moe, catch a tiger by the toe - I tag Ann, Tany, Kelly, Erica and Lisette!

That is way cool about Dennis Leary! While I am not a fan of his stand up, I do like his TV series. I am sure if he ever shows up on The Actors Studio that he would be asked about his poetry … they do incredible research for their interviews.
