Neil Harris: Chicago, Illinois, United States; I am an observant Jew, who likes to observe and a work in progress. Back in public high school my hair was often streaked with peroxide and different lengths and shapes (thanks to Aqua Net). Eventually I chopped it off so that I could look more clean-cut for my interview at Yeshiva University (the things we do for Torah). Back then, I spent my free time listening to hardcore punk and college radio. Today, I have very little hair and when I do catch myself listening to Husker Du or Bad Religion on my iTouch my kids roll their eyes and call the music, “complete chaos and a ruckus." They’re correct, having been raised on Uncle Moishy, Piamenta, and YBC. I am zoche to have a wife and children who love me and rock. My children display a strength of self and independence that sets them apart from many of their peers. There is nothing more hardcore than doing what Hashem wants each of us to do.
