Kevin Canessa Jr.

Hi! I am Kevin Canessa. I am a Jersey boy at heart and always will -- but my new home is Port St. Lucie, Fla., and I love it here.

I am a freelance writer -- and I do most of my work for The Observer newspaper in Kearny, NJ [where I was once editor].

I am also a huge fan of the NJ Devils and New York Mets -- and am unabashedly a bleeding-hearted liberal politically.
