Welcome to my webpage! Someone apparently hacked into it and added some gross porn comments...they are gone now. Thank you for visiting. I have a degree in Broadcast Journalism, and I made the mistake of working in the TV news business for 5 years before coming to my senses. I write for various Internet sites now, a much better way to work than traditional media, as well as running my own public relations firm. I also run the MySpace for Glenn Shorrock, one of the founding members of the Little River Band. Please click on the link below and take a look. Life is good!
You may notice all of my banner ads...please click on them and visit some of the businesses featured on my page. I know there are a lot of banners, but I only pick ones which are actually appealing, and some which have some political importance...For example, I am a proud supporter of TOLERANCE.ORG, an organization dedicated to keeping slimebags and their hategroups off our streets and behind bars.
My literary idol is someone many have heard of, but many have not, as well. Her name is Gerda Weissman Klein, and she is a Holocaust survivor. Her book "All But My Life" should be recommended reading for all students, and will open the eyes of many people. She is a great woman, and people everywhere could learn a great deal from her! I have read scores of Holocaust survivor books and would be glad to recommend some for interested readers. It is an important topic, and we cannot afford to forget history!
I speak Norwegian, French and German (though not as well as I did before!) and I am teaching myself Ukrainian.... I attended Ruprecht-Karl Universitat in Heidelberg, Germany. My grandfather came to the US from a small town in Ukraine called Lipovets .(The Ukrainian spelling is Lypovets.)I also have family from the towns of Berdichev and Romanov. While Berdichev still exists today, Romanov has disappeared and I have little information on it. If you know of people from any of these towns, or Gaysin or Pliskov, please contact me.
This is the piece of land where my family lived long ago in Lipovets, Ukraine. Now it is a vacant field.
IT'S TIME TO ROCK YOUR WORLD...

In 2002 my dad and I went to his father's hometown in Ukraine. I am so glad we got to go, it meant a lot to both of us.The town of Lipovets is very small, very poor, but very friendly. While there I found the cemetery where my ancestors were buried. As you can see from the picture, it is not well cared for, and cows live with the tombstones
The photo below is of the burial mound near Lipovets. It was on this site in 1941 that 2,000 of the town's Jewish residents were brought and murdered by the Nazis.
