My Life Story:The oldest of nine children I was born premature a lifetime ago.Much of my time was spent raising my brothers and sisters, as my parents involved themselves in parent type activities. School was boring and seemedto drag on for what seemed like forever. College was my way of escaping adolecense and gave me the chance to grow up. Learning was kept to lessonsof life, education was the last thing on my mind. I met my future wife duringmy sophomore year and we were married two days after Christmas in my senior year.I suddenly became serious about my future, realized that I had wasted fouryears and enlisted in the Navy. I had plans to finish school while in theservice and fly airplanes for the Navy, I had already passed the written testfor acceptance into OCS. This however never came to pass and I spent the nextseven and a half, long grey and underway Navy, years working in electronics,with the exception of the two years spent as a Navy recruiter. After being discharged from the Navy I continued in the electronic field, working as a calibration technician and a biomedical field engineer. During this time I alsowent back to school to get my BA in Management, taught myself computers and started my own computer business. After a series of events, to confused andconvoluted to go into, I ultimately ended up working as a computer technicianfor the second largest school system in Virginia, were the confusion continues.Still married to my college sweetheart we have two children, a daughter who at the present time has two children of her own, hey I'm a Grandpa. I alsohave a son of whom I'm so proud it looks like I've gain 40lbs,but really, I'm only bursting with pride, honest.I enjoy reading, although I don't read much these days, gardening but I haven'tdone that much lately either. I love to cook unfortunately I also love to eatwhat I've cooked. Prefer Macintosh computers but wouldn't give up my PCs. I played Rugby in my younger days and would like to play again if I ever get anyyounger. I love to bike, fish, camp, and fly none of which I've done in a longtime. I've always enjoyed the arts and I'm a pretty good photographer whenI take the time. I went skiing for the first time a few winters ago anddiscovered that I love to ski. The fact is there isn't much I don't enjoydoing. I'll try just about anything once.What I enjoy most is my family. I feel blessed to have found the most wonderfulwoman in the world who agreed to be my wife. She bless us with two of the mostwonderful children anyone could ask for. We have both remained close with ourbrothers and sisters, dispite the distance and we look forward to getting closerin the future.�
