About

Meet the Second Grade Minds:

“The Red Ranger“, a New Jersey native, who currently resides in Massachusetts about 20 miles south of Boston, is happily married to his wonderful wife of 26 years and has two boys ages 17 and 14. His life is an endless routine spent working and shuttling his two boys to their various sporting events around New England. Summer weekends are spent relaxing in Maine, a far cry from the city life of New Jersey. Despite his upbringing in corrupt, heavily Democratic Hudson County (NJ), The Red Ranger has been able to apply keen, analytical, independent thinking to his political views and leans toward the conservative agenda on most issues: “Remember that if you are 20 and not a Democrat you have no heart but if you are 50 and not a Republican you have no brain.”

“Nattering Naybob” lives in New Jersey with his wife and cat. He has been trying for about 35 years to establish a career as a painter and writer. He has vowed to spend at least another year on this before he gives up. Nattering Naybob first met The Red Ranger almost 45 years ago in second grade when they were paired by their teacher to work on sports-related crossword puzzles. The rest is history. He describes The Red Ranger’s Right-leaning political theories as “unfortunate”. Nattering Naybob is occasionally referred to as Tom Ludwig by his family and what friends he still has.
