Around the time my wife and I first met, occasionally, when we couldn’t describe something or just wanted to express some kind of intensity, we’d say  (or sometimes chant) “chicky-chow-now”.  It made us laugh.

My name is Mike Trainor. I live in the Berkshires of western Massachusetts near the borders of NY and VT. Husband of Alexia. Dad of Elliot (and as of July 2010 – Samuel!). Internet and data worker with an online media company of Brooklyn, New York. Actor, musician, and regent of Main Street Stage, a 47 seat black box theater in North Adams, Massachusetts. I’ve recently been working with Nutshell Playhouse, a children’s theater company in Lenox, MA.
