Hello, SeanO here.
I live in Chicago, Illinois. I'm a bureaucrat by trade. A jazz singer by avocation (http://wiktionary.org/wiki/Avocation).
WEB: Officemonkey.org (http://officemonkey.org). AIM: I'm at "lifegoestoaparty".
I came here from Ward Cunningham's WikiWikiWeb (http://c2.com/cgi/wiki) and the Bookshelved Wiki (http://bookshelved.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl).
I created this page here in February, 2003, but I edited several pages earlier than that.
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.
Armstrong Number
My Armstrong Number is three. I've defined the Armstrong Number to be similar to the Erdös 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 Erdös number, but I know someone that does.
