| Introduction | If it weren't for computers, I would have no memory at all. Seriously. I am 65 years young, though my body disagrees with that characterization. I have two grown children, four grandchildren, and two cats. My long-time partner died in 2016, and she is passionately missed. I have a history of woodworking, computer programming, and work in hotels ranging from dishwasher to General Operations Director (G.O.D., I picked that title myself). I have lived in California (my birthplace), Washington (State), Illinois, Indiana, North Dakota, and since 1995 in Minnesota, Land of 10,000 skating rinks (frozen lakes). I hope someday to move to a warmer climate kinder to my arthritis, or to Canada where the healthcare coverage and the people are saner. I have been known to make too many puns (I'm a very punny guy). |
