Dylan hosts afternoon drive on New York's Fresh 102.7.

He's not too sure what the hell happened to Dead Air Dave,

and quite frankly does not care.

Let the non-New Yorkers play the rock music for nobody.

If a tree falls in the woods.....

Dylan has a fun-loving upbeat attitude and smiles when he talks
on this extremely successful radio station with millions of listeners.

It's a pleasant work environment with a great team!

Genetics suck.

We all know that even if you try to do everything right, horrible things can still happen.

In February 2007 I had major open-heart surgery to repair my leaky regurgitating genetically screwed mitral valve.

It was an extremely irritating experience to say the least.

Copious amounts of painkillers are no fun when you're actually using them for weeks of continuous commercial-free ridiculous nonstop pain.

I'm very thankful to my team of doctors, some of the best in the country. NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell was very good to me. I recall only one nurse with an attitude, and she was a mean old used-up hag. Everyone else was pretty much awesome.

Recovery took months, and although I'm pretty much back to normal, I still feel weird mild pain sometimes. My scar is irritating. They did saw my sternum open after all. Anyway, I'm repaired, which means I shoudn't drop dead in about five years. That's the important thing.

After that kind of stuff happens you end up paying much more attention to your health.

Anyway, I highly recommend this book if you're thinking about improving your lifestyle.

It gives great tips and explains everything in layman's terms.
