I was born and raised on planet earth. It's quite possible that at one time or another I've been the person who washed the dish you ate off of, cooked your lunch, served you dinner, bagged your groceries, made sure your friendly neighborhood Air Force Base complied with environmental regulations, updated you on the weather and spun another vinyl, wired the computer network in your highschool, taught you how to surf the 'net, built a webpage you visited from the ground up, worked on an application which automated some important part of your life, or made you laugh on TV.

In June of 1998 I married the most wonderful woman in the world, Brenda Ames, but The Internet has been my mistress since 1994.

To get into the role of "That-guy-with-the-dog-in-the-park-who-gets-zapped-by-a-flying-saucer", I got up early one saturday morning, around 9:00, and met the producer at the park. He yelled, "Action", and I walked the dog. I chose not to use a stunt-double for the part where I was "zapped" and had to fall down because the hoola-hoop girl was in the same scene and she was doing her own stunts. Basically I just didn't want to look like a weenie.
