About Me:

Oh What can I say.

I currently do a column called DeYoung On DemandÂ for my local newspaper called the Shopper. I do movie reviews and maybe an occassionalÂ entertainment editorial. I have been doing this for about two years. I also love writing about political issues. Commentators I most admire are Sean Hannity and the best of the best, Glenn Beck, which as you can guess, makes me a conservative.

I graduated with a Bachelors andÂ Masters Degree in Communication from Governors State University. I have a wonderful wife name Dawn and an adorable little toy poodle name Snowy.

My goal one day is to write a novel and get it published, but I am also planning on running for Trustee for the city of Thornton, IL in two years. Right now, I am on the Board of Trustees for the Thornton Public Library.

I think that pretty much covers it.

This was something I wrote when I heard that Al Franken had just been selected to serve on the U.S. Senate, so I figured if Al Franken can get into the Senate, why can’t I? This comes from deep within my heart. It is my dream that someday, I will be able to really use this.
