TCF Authors Greg Popelka
Greg has a family of 4, who he tries to insulate from his brooding when Cleveland sports rip his heart out. He appreciates music by a wide range of artists - and is currently involved in converting a chunk of his vinyl album collection to .mp3 files. Greg is an eager latecomer to the music of Phish. His iPod Nano has a killer collection of 230 rock/pop songs from the 1980’s, compiled in part by his brother and his aunt, and which proudly lacks any Lionel Ritchie, Phil Collins and Michael Jackson. The Nano is his running companion, and he runs 6 – 10 miles a week when the weather is decent. Greg is somewhat of a WWII history buff. His favorite movies usually involve war, international intrigue, or Michael Winslow.

Just finished reading an old school Dean Koontz psychological thriller - "Intensity". One of his old ones I'd never read. Outstanding book.
