Profile for MANIACTRANSPODRIVER Click here to make or adjust profile
Height:  5'7 Weight:  190 lbs. Alumni Status:  '94
Location:  Northern Virginia Favorite Baseball Team:  I gave up on baseball. 1994 turned me off.
Natural Enemies:  Miami Dolphin (Fish) fans
Athletic Ability: Kickball on the National Mall in spring and summer. I shag big red balls in left field with a pretty good fielding average. My kicking average sucks. Have resorted to bunting to pull out a few singles on occasion even though it's frowned upon as unmanly.

Run and gym for lifting though not as often as I'd like. Put myself through tortuous hills sometimes to burn off effects of excessive beer calories.
Sartorial Style: Casual jeans, whatever looks conservatively trendy for 30s.

Hats once in awhile especially when I don't want to walk outside with messy hair. Hats are all one of either Buffalo Bills, Buffalo Sabres, or Notre Dame. Will not wear hats that "look cool" since I care about no other teams. Sabres jersey for games. Chics dig hockey jerseys in bars.
Favorite Beverage and Consumption Freq: Wine: Favor whites and among whites am a lush for Riesling. I like trying new varieties and seek out Virginia and New York as my home and previous home states.

Beer: Molson Canadian, Ice. Labatt Blue/Blue Light. Grew up near Canada, eh.

Usually it's Coors Light, which I think tastes good as long as it is cold and fresh.
Political Philosophy: Just right of center with libertarian inclinations. Believer in federalism. Always could go for a good tax cut.
Religious Philosophy: On the fence Roman Catholic who feels out of place amidst multiple parishes I have belonged to that promote the very conservative stance of the Archdiocese of Arlington, Virginia. The annulment process with its excessive anguish and monetary cost is at the top of my list of reasons why I no longer have the strong affinity for the Church. I've been dropping in on Episcopal services with my wife occasionally, which I like to some degree though the lack of reverence for the Eucharist is disappointing.
Musical Favorites: Jimmy Buffett and artists who take after Buffett. Outside Radio Margaritaville, I hop around on Sirius between First Wave, Classic Rewind, Deep Tracks, Classic Vinyl, 70s, 80s, 90s, Hair Nation, Boneyard (though Buzzsaw pre-XM merger was better), Octane, and Alt Nation. Occasional trance out on Strobe or Area.
Favorite Quote from an ND Coach: Philosophy rather than specific quote. W.I.N. "What's Important Now." Lou.

Favorite non-ND coach quote: "Where else would you rather be than RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW?" Marv Levy.
Miscellaneous Data: My golf cart crash in January 1992 in the snow and ice outside the Law School building was due to deliberate reckless driving over an argument with the passenger/dorm mailman regarding that week's upcoming Super Bowl XXVI.

I prefer the NFL to college football. It's just reflective of how it was growing up in my hometown and our love of the Bills.
