The man we meet on this edition of CoastLine is a bona fide Air Pirate -- convicted in absentia by the Nigerian government just after the civil war. He was the first broadcast engineer on staff at WHQR. He’s written a book of fiction called The Ship’s Cat. And he acted in the notoriously – um – horrific film Death Bed: The Bed that Eats. He also helped to design the bed that eats.
