I’ve never been able to:  stand water chestnuts or tomato seeds.  It’s a texture thing!

I’ve always been been able to:   achieve maximum mediocrity

When I retire from radio, I will:  forfeit all of my (mediocre and outdated) possessions in true Ithaca fashion: by arranging them on the side of the street in a Jenga-like stack….a “FREE” sign placed nicely atop like an organic cherry.  I will then walk the earth, like Kane in Kung Fu.

Why you do what you do:  the circus already had a tattooed lady :-/

Cool achievements:  weaseling my way up to the FOX suite at a television convention, sharing the elevator up with Doris Roberts, exiting the elevator to find Robin Leach leaning over the desk, and hanging out in the suite with the cast of Yes Dear and Kiefer Sutherland as they were watching football.  Oh, and going to Maury Povich’s 65th birthday party the night before and getting hit on by the host of Cheaters.  That was pretty surreal.
