I am a history teacher, college counselor and dorm parent at Wyoming
Seminary College Preparatory School in Kingston, Pennsylvania. My multi-talented
wife, Courtney , also
works at Sem, where she is the librarian .
Courtney is accompanied every day by Bugsy , who we
adopted from Delaware
Valley Golden Retriever Rescue . Bugsy is hugely popular at Sem, and
loves working at the library.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree from Hampshire
College and a Master of
Arts in American Studies from Purdue University .
My hobbies include playing the guitar ,
and baseball. I've been a member of the Society
for American Baseball Research for over 20 years. Recently, I
was honored to have an article of mine published
in their journal, The
National Pastime .
I am working hard to free
Wesley Snipes . Read

you can do to set this movie star
free .
My favorite "killer app" for the Macintosh is GarageBand .
I've begun using it to make some very rough multitrack
recordings with my guitars. Hopefully someday I can take these demos and
fine tune them into a real album. I've been posting my work on soundclick.com a
site for web based musicians. The name of the site is the "Low
Standards ", the name of one of my current projects . Check out
my tunes! You can also hear a live recording of Bob
Dylan's "Positively 4th St ." with my old band from back in
2003.
My Master's Thesis: "'A Structure to Last Forever':
The Players' League and The Brotherhood War of 1890" , examines
this pivotal moment in the history of professional sports. It is available
in full as a set of .pdf files , if you
prefer. You may need to download the free Acrobat
Reader to view those files. This set of pages was recognized by Lightspan
Studyweb (sadly, no longer with us) with their Academic Excellence
award.
Occasionally, I will publish some miscellaneous writings, such as my Lincoln's
Birthday speech about Lincoln and Frederick Douglass, my essay about
the final games played at Veterans Stadium (home
of the Philadelphia Phillies from 1971 to 2003), my
think piece on the September 11, 2001 tragedy ; my eulogy
for my late father , my essay on the expulsion
of Senator Jesse Bright and my set of pages explaining computer
basics .
