| Introduction | After having spent 20 years fighting real fires in Texas, I now find myself putting out fires in the realm of electrons. About the only difference between the two worlds that I can discern is that I generally end the day a little bit cleaner nowadays and the adrenaline rush is a bit less intense (sometimes, anyway;-) My areas of expertise are: firefighting/EMS, computers & networking, mechanics (auto, diesel, general), electrical, plumbing, carpentry, welding, astronomy, systems analysis, project management, fixing just about anything (except my marriage;-), and last, but not least...BEING ME (which is what I am absolutely the BEST at!!!) |
| Interests | Life!!!, people watching, hiking, snowboarding, crisp blue-sky mornings in the mountains, astronomy, hugging my kids, chocolate, rock climbing, clear dark starry nights, cats, thunderstorms, sunsets, evening walks along the beach in summer, Frisbee, curling up with a good book in front of the fireplace, spelunking, shopping, walking barefoot in the snow, spending time with someone you love (and showing them!), rollerblading, playing with babies, backpacking, Iceland, roller coasters |
