Check out these pictures of my new niece (born 7/26/99), Raisa Gold Berkowitz! The first is her at three weeks. The second is the three Esthers with Raisa at the baby-naming. The others are about 30 hours into my niece's out-of-womb existence. She's growing up so fast, that Raizl!
Welcome to my occasionally-maintained website, the land where Gas-Man and Kofiko romp side by side in cyberspace. Here you will find some of my personal writings, information about my tour de force, Poem Day, some miscellaneous stuff about my family, friends, hometown, school and life along with a step by step instruction guide to how you can make Reaganomics work for YOU! You'll also find links to such fabulous websites including those of Mamaroneck High School, Binghamton University and Wegmans (where I receive my supplemental education). And now, explore away!
I am currently enrolled at the State University of New York at Binghamton, also called Binghamton University, SUNY Binghamton and "that really cold place in the armpit of New York." I want to give some quick mention to my suitemates of my junior year, Devin, Mike Boxer, Hiro, Steve, and the since-departed God of Love Fabs. Here's also a shout-out to the boys who are no longer with us (that's a euphemism), Hirschy Pork and Schleffers. I reside in Cleveland Hall, where I serve as Co-President (with Devin), and resident rhinophiliac. I'd like to say how amazing Cleveland was in Hysteria for the past two years, but I can't now due to my chairing of the Hysteria Committee; I'm supposed to be impartial. While I long for Yoda and Velveeta, the loves of my life these days include Kittenplan College Council, Pipe Dream, Hinman Production Company, the Psychology Department (I also love kissing ass), Oatmeal Creme Pies (along with all food orgasmic), and of course, the rhinos. There's a nut in a nutshell for you.
I have to give a special mention to the crew at Pipe Dream, the twice-weekly campus newspaper where I dedicate most of my extracurricular efforts, considering I'm NOW CO-EDITOR-IN-CHIEF (I love ya Seth!). Three cheers to B.U.'s only journalism program.
Oh, and this is for all of you at Fair Use, especially Kevin Kniffin, who have always sent your warmest wishes to me ever since that little Ralph Nader incident:
This section is dedicated to my Alma Matter, Mamaroneck High School, and my fellow tigers who I continue to visit in cyberspace and beyond, Brad, Bucky, Everett, and maybe others, as well as my MHS friends up here at Bing, Leifert, Becca and Fat Mike.
My apologies for the messed up margins. I'll have to get around to fixing them, but if you save the file and open it in Wordperfect or something, that should take care of the margin problem for you. Please don't let that stop you from viewing the documents.
