ABOUT ME

I average about 100 text messages a day. I leave my phone on the table during meals and I have mastered all eight levels of Brickbreaker. I also host the morning show for 101.3 KDWB in Minneapolis. On top of that I enjoy being exceedingly handsome and a world-class athlete? OK, who am I kidding? I'm a dork, but I don't try to be anything that I'm not. If I could, I'd play video games 18 hours a day. But since I'd probably weigh about 300 pounds if I did, I run three or four times a week and have completed three marathons.. I suck at golf, I rock at trivia and I have about 400 hours as a pilot. I have GREAT kids and a great wife. And they think I'm a dork, too.

LITTLE KNOWN FACTS ABOUT ME

I once owned Lee Harvey Oswald's Toe Tag, then sold it to "Ripley's Believe it or Not!" Seriously! Who would make that up? And you can hear my voice on the radio in "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" and "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas." Last year I bought Bob Barker's "Price is Right" microphone.

STUPIDEST THING I HAVE EVER DONE

I ate an entire jar of peanut butter with a spoon and washed it down with a two-liter bottle of Coke just to make my friends laugh. I ended up in the emergency room.

BIGGEST PET PEEVE

People who talk too damn loud on their cell phones! Shush!

MOST ANNOYING HABIT

I can't sit still. I drive everyone crazy because I have too much nervous energy.

WHEN I FIRST KNEW I WANTED TO BE A DJ

I knew, my parents knew - and my teachers knew I wasn't university material, so I went to community college and took radio and TV broadcasting classes.
