If this has gotten around to me then its been around for a while. David tagged me so here are a few things about me.
- I was in the Air Force and that's where I met my amazing wife. She too was in the Air Force and the best looking Airman I'd ever seen. We met in technical training, spent three months stationed apart after getting married, and have now been married for 11 1/2 years.
- My wife and I (me to a much smaller extent) home school our kids. It's awesome and they love it. Before we moved we had a little school room setup with chalkboard, desks, etc.. We use the Abeka curriculum.
- I was a sporto (Ferris Bueller reference) in high school..everything revolved around a sport. I played basketball in Junior High with future NBA player Corliss Williamson. I was drafted by the Cleveland Indians as a shortstop the same year Manny Ramirez was their #1 pick. I never played pro baseball but did play in college.
- I lived in Fairbanks, Alaska for a year as a kid. I remember times when the snow was so deep that my older brother would dig tunnels through the snow in the yard that I could walk through while standing up (I was 5).
- I distinctly remember taking a programming class in BASIC (as an elective) that changed my professional world forever. I then looked into future job growth reports and saw that being a Systems Analyst was going to be the hottest job for the next 25 years. That's all it took for me to know what I wanted to do as a career, assuming baseball wasn't going to work out. :-)
So, more than you wanted to know I'm sure. I've tagged My Wife, Joey Beninghove, Joel Ross, and Scott Dockendorf
