Mike Morin
Age: 39 (2/27/51) OK, my math skills are bad.
Check my weekly humor column in the Nashua Telegraph: Mike Morin
Have a look at my latest humor piece from May, 2007's New Hampshire magazine. MIKEY IN NH MAGAZINE
Special Achievement: Raising my daughter Liz, who is now 27 and graduated cum laude from Lesley University in 2002 and of whom I am ridiculously proud.
Birthplace: Detroit, the Motor City, baby! Home of Ted Nugent, Bob Seger and Vernor's ginger ale.
Special interests/hobbies: Yoga, writing, exploring New England, sneaking off to Vegas.
Favorite childhood memory: Wondering if Annette Funicello on "The Mickey Mouse Club" TV show would ever want to kiss me. She didn't. I got over it a few years later. Now, I'm wondering about Heather Locklear.
I've never been able to... Belch on command. Talk to Ed and Nancy. They can both do it. I'm so jealous
Favorite Morning Show moment: Interviewing Peter Jennings at the Merrimack Restaurant for our live broadcast during the NH Primary in 2004.
What you'll do when you get a few extra moments: Organize a demolition derby with those goofy Roomba robotic vacuum cleaners. Then put it on Pay Per View.
What would make the world better? Two things: First, parents taking their jobs more seriously and secondly: people not paying with debit cards in express lanes at the supermarket.
When I retire from radio, I will: Be the curator at the Candlepin Bowling Hall of Fame.
Someday I hope to abolish:Hunger and poverty in Bedford.
When I grow up I wanna be... A little boy in an old man's body. Oh wait! I'm that already.
Turning point in your career:Out of 350 DJs, being chosen as one of five to work at WJOK in Washington, D.C., the nation's first "All Comedy" radio station in 1983.
Advice to young people just starting out: Keep a file on your boss. S/he's already got one on you.
Who is your biggest influence? Mom, Dad, Daughter Liz and a couple Detroit radio personalities.
You latest kitchen creation: Making bread from scratch without a bread machine. I make a dandy chocolate martini, too.
Why you do what you do: Because I refuse to ever get a real job. Plus, I have no discernable job skills beyond going "blah blah blah."
Favorite quote: It's a cliche but my Father was always right when he told me "You catch more flies with honey than vinegar".
