Its been a while since my last update. This site was created to keep family and friends up to date on what we have been doing and well with Facebook’s popularity I have not been doing a very good job keeping this site up to date. So here I am switching to a new hosting provider and working on new pages which I hope will allow me to keep things better up to date. We will see and this is my playground for a while so please be patient.

Please note the link to my previous site may have some broken items. I will fix them as I catch them and some just may not be repairable. Sorry but you can still get to my previous posts.

Its Me!

Hobbies:
Computers stuff – My first experience with a computer was in Jr High School (circa 70′s) and did some simple math programs using punch cards. In HS I took my first computer programming classes and then went off and learned Electrical Engineering. This has allowed me to understand the workings of a computer from hardware, operating systems and software. I have worked in hardware repair, operating system design, storage drivers, multimedia, speech recognition…. Jack of all trades?

Amatuer Radio – Started off my interest in radios back in the CB radio phase and then went on to getting my amatuer radio license. Again I have modified radios from tube based to digital, built antennas and amplifiers….

Cars – Started getting into cars during High School. Had several Z-28 camaros, trucks (including 4×4), motorcycle. Did my own customizations and focuses on the tuning side. Rebuilt engines, built lift kits (vs purchase) and worked in a machine shop for a while.

Firearms – I have been shooting since I could walk (or so it seems). During my early teens I took up competitive rifle shooting and ended up nationally ranked before my High School days where this took a back seat due to other interests. Today its more of a hobby.

What makes thing work – Yeah I like to know what makes things tick. When I repair things around the house I am known to take the old parts into the garage and take it apart for no other reason than understanding what makes it work.
