Surrealistic...

  What can I say?

  My name is Michael Rogers, and I live in Mountain Top, Pennsylvania. I was born back in September of 1972. I live alone in a modest 2-bedroom apartment in the Fairview Township section of Mountain Top on Route 309 (right next door to the good people of III Guys' Pizza & Sports Bar). I've worked in the extruded plastics industry for quite a few years in both technical and managerial capacities. More recently, I did a stint for the United States Government as a Benefit Notices Clerk for the Social Security Administration.

  In my spare time I make web pages, watch movies (anything will do, as long as it has a good story to it), read books (poetry, fiction, historical), and sometimes I even venture down the hill, when the mood strikes me, to the aforementioned sports bar to enjoy a nice cold bottle of Molson Golden. Or, more specifically, I spend quite a bit of time at a little bar on Wood Street in Wilkes-Barre by the name of Whiskey Business. I've been a regular face there for years, and you may even see me at the front door working as a bouncer from time to time. I've also written a novel which I hope to get published someday. I have other writing projects that I'm working on, including ideas for three other novels. I'm currently dividing my time between re-writes of the first, and a first draft of the second. I've recently completed work on a novelette. You're more than welcome to read it.

  Pretty boring, eh?

  Yeah, well - I dig boring these days. When life gets exciting, life usually gets complicated, and I don't dig complicated. I try to keep things as simple as possible.

  I love a good wine or a dry martini, but my major addiction is Coca-Cola. My kitchen is a shrine of Coke memorabilia.

  I'm 6' 7" tall, and weigh about 300 lbs. - yeah, I'm a pretty big dude. I used to always write (in these on-line bio-things) about how much I loved playing pool, I still do, I just don't get to play as often as I used to. I'm still a helluva shot though...

  I still play guitar, I picked up a nice Fender acoustic a couple of years ago. I still have my Strat, but the neighbors tend to get annoyed when the thing is amplified.

 


Another Web-Cam Pic...

  Hey, while we're gettin' all cozy an' everything, check out some pictures of my home an' stuff. Click any one of'em to enlarge it to the full size:
  There it is people. I'm guessing that you found this page because you had some remote interest in getting an idea of who I am and what I'm about. If this didn't answer anything for you, you can always e-mail me...
