My Life: In Living Color!
Home cooking
Well, here's my life, what's important to me: My family, friends, and hobbies.
I was born and raised in Long Island, NY. You can take the giwl offa Lawn Island, but you can't take the Lawn Island outta the giwl.
Your choices this evening:
My Photos...the pretty stuff!
Jokes and other punny comments!

School Days
The largest suburban school district in New York State! My class (many, many years ago) had approx 1600.
Ok, so a lot's changed since I graduated here (first the BS in Biochemistry, then a job in Pharmacology, then the MS from the Molecular and Cellular Pharmacology program). The sports teams were called the Patriots, now it's the Seawolves. Football was a club sport...now they're division I. The new Life Sciences building is FINALLY being built. (The construction of this campus is so bad (lowest bidder, state-run), it'll cost more to fix the problems than it would to start over again...the Health Sciences Center is the worst.)
My home town: Holbrook, NY (Exit 61 off the LIE!)
I haven't found much on the web. Funny, considering there are almost 30,000 people living there now! It has an airport (Islip-Macarthur) on it's west border, the LIE to the north and dump (landfill) to the south (remember the Islip Town garbage barge from the 1980's?). It has a golf course, a little downtown area, burgeoning industrial parks and a lot of traffic! Here's a few sites to check out:
