Dropkick Murphys- The Meanest of Times
Portishead- Third
Morcheeba- Dive Deep
Had some recent book events, including the now-annual Author's Showcase at Ponce DeLeon Elementary school. It's always a fun event, helping the youts' of America hone their writing skills.
As for current projects, I have serious interest in a story that was brought to me a couple years ago, about an old -time Vegas bookie/gambler/casino worker/hustler. We (my co-author, OC expert Ken Sanz) will hopefully be signing the contract within the next month; the book is scheduled to be out in mid 2009. The working title is Balls: The Life of Eddie Trascher, Gentleman Gangster.
Marked Card, the Boston -based Mafia book that was planned for last year is close to finished. My co-author is hoping for release later this year.
I've written three articles in the past six months- one on Santo Trafficante Jr., one on the CIA, and one on the Chicago Outfit trial of 2007- for High Society magazine. You can check them out...behind the counter.

Future projects- I've been approached on doing a science-related book on green careers. I think it will be a nice change of pace and something unique to add to both my writing and career resume.

Hope to see that book "The Marked Card" out on the shelves soon. I heard its a great story told from the first person about the ins & outs of All types of Organized Crime throughout Boston and the surrounding states.
