Hello, SeanO here.
I live in Chicago, Illinois. I'm a bureaucrat by trade. A jazz singer by avocation.
WEB: Officemonkey.org. AIM: I'm at "lifegoestoaparty".
I came here from Ward Cunningham's WikiWikiWeb and the Bookshelved Wiki.
I created this page here in February, 2003, but I edited several pages earlier than that.
[edit] FEMA Project
My latest fixation is to write articles for every FEMA director. See my contributions at:
- John Macy
- Louis O. Giuffrida
- Julius W. Becton, Jr.
- Wallace Stickney
- John Magaw
- James Lee Witt
- R. David Paulison
"Sure, anyone can write a Wikipedia article on Mike Brown, but how many people can write one on John Macy??"
[edit] Jazz Project
Pages I'm proud to have contributed to:
- Benny Goodman
- Louis Armstrong
- Lionel Hampton
- Nat King Cole
- Fletcher Henderson
- Harold Arlen -- so far, I'm the sole author...
- Nellie Lutcher -- ditto.
- King Pleasure -- ditto.
- Johnny Hodges
- Illinois Jacquet
- Artie Shaw
- Sammy Davis, Jr.
- Joe Williams (jazz singer)
- Bessie Smith
- Dashiell Hammett
- Nina Simone
- Bubber Miley
- Tricky Sam Nanton
Perhaps you can tell I like Jazz.
[edit] Armstrong Number
My Armstrong Number is three. I've defined the Armstrong Number to be similar to the Erdős number, except using Louis Armstrong and jazz performance as criteria.
Louis Armstrong (0) -> Barrett Deems (1) -> Mark Sonksen (2) -> SeanO (3).
I also have a Bacon number of three.
Kevin Bacon (0) -> Steve Guttenberg (1) -> Colin Quinn (2) -> SeanO (3) (I appeared in the MTV game show Remote Control in the late 1980s.)
Sadly, I don't have an Erdős number, but I know someone that does.
