MAJORING IN AMERICAN STUDIES
Where have we seen you?
If you've ever walked past or sat near a group of raucous, inappropriate people shouting absolutely ridiculous things at each other and wearing pea coats, chances are I was the one shooting my mouth off. I'm also that kid sitting near the front of the class wearing a vest and tie. A man should never shy away from being the best-dressed person in the room.
What was your favorite childhood TV show and why?
"Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters from Beverly Hills." It ran on the USA Network for about three episodes. It was totally a low-budget rip-off of the "Power Rangers," but I thought the girls Laurie and Drew were much cuter than Trini Kwan or Kimberly Hart, those Power Skanks. My uncle was a producer for the show and I got a tee shirt and action figures for Hanukkah one year from him. I'm pretty sure that USA had to pay him in cheap merchandise; it was a terrible show. I never really liked it.
Who would play you in a movie about your life and why?
Heath Ledger. Too soon? The real answer would have to be freshman Ryan Pierannunzi, resident of Tierney Hall, who could maybe be mistaken for a slightly taller and larger me. He could also be billed as Max Siegel, resident of Queen's Court and another freshman here at Rose Hill, though the last name spelling discrepancy might cause confusion and we happen to look nothing alike. Apparently Fordham loved me so much after my freshman year that they had to hedge their bets the second time around.
If you could be any famous historical figure, who would you be and why?
Shaggy Rogers. No one's done more for overeating vegetarians in the last 40 years. And who else is teaching our youth that dog treats are an acceptable and delicious snack? The message needs to get out there.
What's your favorite campus hot spot? Manhattan hot spot?
