About The Idiot Who Runs This Site.
Dan Oshinsky works at a digital media producer at KENS-5 TV in San Antonio.
All rational thoughts, ramblings or nonsense posted here are Dan's own.
Dan is a recent graduate of the University of Missouri, where he majored in convergence journalism. He has worked as a freelance journalist at the Beijing Olympics for The Rocky Mountain News in Denver, Colo. He has been published in The Boston Globe and The Washington Examiner, and also interned at CBS News, The Nantucket Independent and The Gazette of Business and Politics (in Montgomery County, Md.).
Dan's full resume is also available in one paragraph.
Like many pro athletes, Dan has a wingspan greater than his height. He continues to put that 81-inch wingspan to good use by avoiding a career in athletics. He also enjoys proclaiming his love for Maryland Terrapins basketball and training for the Pointersaurus challenge in Clayton, Mo. Dan does not particularly enjoy the use of the third person, but since it worked for Bo Jackson, it's at least worth a try.
A more comprehensive list of things about Dan that might require a full team of Austrian psychologists to unpack can be found here.
Praise for the University of Missouri's new ticketing system at athletic events can be directed toward Dan. Please direct all complaints/hate mail elsewhere.
He can be reached at dan.oshinsky [at] gmail.com.
